home affordable foreclosure alternatives...

When the weight of homeownership becomes too great, the Home Affordable Foreclosure Alternatives (HAFA) Program offers options to help you leave your home without the sting of foreclosure. Through a HAFA short sale, you can sell your house at market value, even when you owe more on the mortgage. Through a HAFA deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, you give the title back to your mortgage company. WHY HAFA WORKS HAFA releases you from any remaining mortgage debt. Through HAFA, you receive at least $3,000 in relocation assistance to help you get back on your feet. If you’re eligible for HAFA, your mortgage company will assign a relationship manager to help guide you through the process, from start to finish. YOU MAY BE ELIGIBLE IF • The property is your primary residence, or was your primary residence at some point in the last 12 months. • You have not purchased a new property within the last 12 months. • Because of a financial hardship, you are delinquent or in danger of falling behind on your mortgage. • You obtained your mortgage on or before January 1, 2009. • You owe no more than $729,750 on your mortgage. IS YOUR MORTGAGE COMPANY PARTICIPATING? More than 90 mortgage companies (servicers)—including Bank of America, JP Morgan Chase, and Wells Fargo— participate in HAFA. For a complete list, visit MakingHomeAffordable.gov. Servicers of mortgages owned, insured, or guaranteed by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, FHA, VA, or USDA may offer similar solutions. Contact these organizations directly for more information. HOW HAFA WORKS • If you qualify for HAFA, your mortgage company works with you and your real estate agent to determine an acceptable sale price for your property. • Your real estate agent markets the property to find a buyer. • At closing (settlement), you receive at least $3,000 in relocation assistance. • If your property was already listed when you came into the process, you may still participate in HAFA and receive HAFA benefits. • While the short sale is generally the first solution mortgage companies offer under HAFA, the mortgage company may offer the deed-in-lieu of foreclosure first. ACT NOW TO GET THE HELP YOU NEED! • Visit MakingHomeAffordable.gov to learn about your options and to download application forms.

When the weight of homeownership becomes too great, the Home Affordable Foreclosure Alternatives (HAFA) Program offers options to help you leave your home without the sting of foreclosure. Through a HAFA short sale, you can sell your house at market value, even when you owe more on the mortgage. Through a HAFA deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, you give the title back to your mortgage company.

Cuando pesa demasiado ser propietario de su vivienda, el Programa Alternativas a la Ejecución Hipotecaria Home Affordable (HAFA) ofrece opciones para ayudarle a mudarse de su casa y evitar una ejecución hipotecaria. Mediante una venta corta HAFA (short sale), usted puede vender su vivienda al valor del mercado, incluso cuando debe más en la hipoteca. Mediante una escritura en lugar de la ejecución hipotecaria (DIL), puede devolverle el título a su compañía hipotecaria.

POR QUÉ FUNCIONA HAFA • HAFA lo libera de toda deuda hipotecaria restante.• Por medio de HAFA, usted recibe por lo menos $3,000 en ayuda para mudarse

y volverse a levantar. • Si cumple con los requisitos para HAFA, su compañía hipotecaria le asignará a un

gerente de relaciones para guiarle por los pasos del trámite, de principio a fin.

USTED PUEDE REUNIR LOS REQUISITOS SI• La propiedad es su residencia principal, o lo fue en algún momento en los

últimos 12 meses.• Usted no ha comprado una nueva propiedad en los últimos 12 meses.• Debido a problemas económicos, se atrasó con sus pagos o corre el peligro

de atrasarse.• Obtuvo su hipoteca el 1 de enero de 2009 o antes.• No debe más de $729,750 en la hipoteca.

¿PARTICIPA SU COMPAÑÍA HIPOTECARIA?Más de 90 compañías hipotecarias (o administradores)—incluyendo Bank of America, JP Morgan Chase y Wells Fargo—participan en HAFA. Visite MakingHomeAffordable.gov para ver la lista completa.

Los administradores de hipotecas pertenecientes, aseguradas o garantizadas por Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, FHA, VA o USDA podrían ofrecer soluciones similares. Contacte directamente a estas organizaciones para más información.

CÓMO FUNCIONA HAFA• Si reúne los requisitos para HAFA, su compañía hipotecaria trabaja con usted y

su agente de bienes raíces para determinar un precio de venta aceptable para su propiedad.

• Su agente de bienes raíces pone la propiedad en el mercado para encontrar un comprador.

• En el cierre (la liquidación), usted recibe por lo menos $3,000 en ayuda para mudarse.

• Si su propiedad ya estaba en venta cuando comenzó con el trámite, todavía puede participar en HAFA y recibir los mismos beneficios de HAFA.

• Aunque la venta corta o al descubierto es generalmente la primera solución que las compañías hipotecarias ofrecen bajo HAFA, el administrador podría ofrecerle un DIL primero.

¡ACTÚE AHORA PARA OBTENER LA AYUDA QUE NECESITA!• Visite MakingHomeAffordable.gov para conocer sus opciones y descargar los formularios de solicitud.• Llame al 888-995-HOPE (4673) para hablar con un experto en viviendas hoy.• Encuentre a un profesional de bienes raíces autorizado, especializado en ventas cortas que tenga una

buena reputación comercial en su vecindario.• Entregue la Solicitud de Asistencia Hipotecaria (RMA), el formulario 4506T-EZ del IRS y toda la

documentación de respaldo a su compañía hipotecaria.
