The Foreclosure ProcessThe Foreclosure Process
The Foreclosure Process varies by State, and falls into two categories: Judicial, and Non-Judicial.
Non-Judicial – foreclosure process happens without the courts. (full discussion is beyond the scope of this presentation)
Judicial – foreclosure is processed though the courts, as in the state of FL.
(For detailed information on the foreclosure process in Miami-Dade County, go to: www.miamidade.gov/foreclosure)

1. STAYING IN THE HOUSE
On Feb 18, 2009 the Obama Administration announced the Making Home Affordable (MHA) Program, a plan to stabilize the housing market and offer FREE assistance to homeowners by reducing mortgage payments to affordable levels and preventing foreclosures.
You can find out if you qualify by going to www.makinghomeaffordable.gov. Also, your local HUD office will also review your loan mod options with you at no charge. Go to www.hud.gov.

2. MOVING FROM THE HOUSE Deed-In-Lieu of Foreclosure:
Allows for the owner to voluntarily transfer a property to the bank without going through the full foreclosure process. Essentially, the owner gives the deed back to the bank. Shortens the process for the bank, with less costs. Same negative impact on credit as a foreclosure, black mark for 7 years. Court not involved. Not an option if there is more than 1 mortgage or lien on the house.

2. MOVING FROM THE HOUSE The Short Sale:
Bank agrees to accept less than what is owed to settle the mortgage in full (a discounted pay-off), and release its lien upon the sale. For example:
Home Sold Price: $300,000Mortgage Balance: $450,000
Short: ($150,000)
There are clear advantages to a Short Sale versus a Foreclosure for both the homeowner and Bank in virtually all situations.

• Deficiency Judgment – Risk that the bank can pursue a judgment for the shortage (difference b/w total mortgage owed and sale amount). However, if there is no money to be recovered a deficiency judgment may not be enforced. (NOTE: A lender can still pursue a deficiency judgment even if the home goes to foreclosure for the difference b/w the REO sale price and the total mortgage judgment.)

• Bank will most likely issue 1099 for amount of debt forgiven.
Example: Mortgage balance: $450,000 Approved Short Sale payoff: $300,000
Shortage/Deficiency: <$150,000>
In this example, the bank may send the seller a 1099C showing $150,000 as income. Debt relief = income to seller.
However…..

• In 2007, Congress passed the “Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act of 2007” which eliminates taxation on debt forgiveness on owner-occupied homes. Applies to debt forgiven between 2007 and 2012.
So in the above example, if the bank sends you a 1099 for $150,000, you would not have to pay income tax on it if the property was your primary residence. (see your accountant for details, do
your own research)
