Foreclosure & Alternatives
Foreclosure refers to the legal process by which a lender (usually a bank) attempts to recover the balance of the default loan that the borrower failed to pay according to the initial contract or stopped making payment. The lender would take ownership of the asset and sell it.
Before the foreclosure would occur, the borrower would have to prolong the monthly payment for a long time or fail to meet other terms in the mortgage document. However, foreclosure law would differ in each country, but generally, the lender would try to get the borrower to catch up with the payment before initiating foreclosure.
A foreclosure could wreak havoc on an asset owner’s credit score, but fortunately, there are alternatives to it, such as; forbearance, repayment plan, loan modification, refinancing, partial claim, or forgiving a payment.
