Texas Home Equity Loan» interest only loan

Would you file for bankruptcy if this were your situation?

My daughter bought a house with her fiance in 05′ (in California) they have a first and a second. The second is fixed but the first is a variable and the interest rate is doubling. They put no money down and the first was an interest only loan, therefore there is no equity and the house has declined significantly in value due to the market. Also, she has ,000 in credit card debt. I am thinking they just might be better off if she files for bankruptcy at this point (yes she has learned her lesson) and perhaps in the future they can purchase another home maybe even sooner since he has pretty good credit, housing prices are a lot lower and he could qualify for a loan.

Should I try to hold on to my home or let it go into forclosure?

We owe 5,000 on our house and it’s now worth about 0,000. We have an ARM that is going to reset in Jan 09. We definitely can’t afford the ,000 jump in payment. Called the mortgage company (Ocwen) and they said we do not qualify for the government’s freeze on interest rates program because our ARM was for 3 years instead of 2, but they said call back closer to the time the loan is set to reset and they’ll work with me. Somehow I doubt it and I don’t want to pay my ,100 property tax bill on the house if I’m just going to lose it in the end. Plus, I’m thinking about all the money we could save every month if we let it go and just rented a house. We’d save about ,000 a month on rent and ,000 a year on property taxes. Why hold on to a house that costs too much and has no equity? Not to mention it’s an interest only loan, so paying it off will NEVER happen. Please give me your advise. Is foreclosure really so bad? My credit score is already low (610)

Bad Credit – I have two loans on my condo?

admin — Tue, 25 Aug 2009 16:04:33 +0000

The smaller loan (43K) will be due in June of this year and I definitly don’t have 43K laying around. When I first signed on for this loan I thought it would be simple to refinance such an amount. But b/c of the state of the housing market and my credit not being so good, i now fear it won’t be so easy to refi.

Is there such a thing as a consolodation loan for a mortgage? Since this amount is an interest only loan wich means no equity what are my options in saving my home and my sanity?

**starting to panic a bit***
Is a quick sale an option?

I have a 1.30% negative am loan that i need to get out of, i currently owe 650,000.00 for both my first and my second, my question is can i get a loan that is not a negative am loan and have my payments at 2,450.00 including my taxes? Even if i have to get myself into an interest only loan for the first 3-5 years or so, by then my wife and i would be off better financially and can refinance into something fixed. My home is worth about 750,000 so i still have some equity in it and have had this negative am loan for about 2 1/2 years now. I was on lending tree and put my info in the mortgage calculator and it brought out different scenarios and one did have a payment of 2,450.00 is this realistic? i pay 8,200.00 in real estate taxes a year.

It seems nobody will touch me, I need the money to pay off some debt to increase my scores. It’s a catch 22. They say pay off some of these delinquent accounts to get your scores up and we will loan you the money. Well ,I need the money to get my scores up. I don’t get it, all I need is 15m. I have 150 thousand in equity on a 200 thousand dollar home. Right now I’m paying 0 a month on a interest only loan (12%) to a loan shark. I should be able to get a 7 or 8% loan if I could get my scores up. You would think with that much equity I wouldn’t have a problem but I guess it doesn’t work that way. What can I do?

I’m looking at buying my second home in COLORADO. I’m thinking about renting my current home, getting an interest only loan on a 2nd home.Build up equity then sale it. Moving into the new home renting out my current home or vis versa . Fix up the newone if need be. Then flip it. I’ve heard I can create an LLC company to cover my rear. I was told if I create this business and go under (house that I purchase forecloses or I cant afford to pay it) I wont lose the house I already own/garnish wages. Can someone elaborate on this and also if anyone can inform me where to get started with creating my own business (Online and not through some program that cost more then the application itself. ) if not online other options are fine. In addition I would like to ask if ANYONE has ever tried this? Please, lay down some stumbling points I may overlook. After getting my LLC what is the next step to get everything done so I can concentrate on making money buy selling and buying houses?

Getting a loan from overseas….taxed or not?

admin — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 11:15:17 +0000

This is a complicated situation but I am going to try to explain this as easy as I can. My in-laws are dutch. They live overseas and are loaning us 56k to pay the second mortgage of our house. The reason they are doing this is they want us to have more equity in our house than just 5% (we will have 20% after we accept their money). They cannot just "gift" us that amount of money overseas because their government will tax them so they actually have to charge us 3.5% interest (the lowest rate they can) for an interest only loan. I have several questions about this…1. If we transfer it, can we transfer the entire amount without getting taxed on it here (if a k amount hits our bank account in the US, I think they will alert the IRS..right?)? Should we transfer this in smaller amounts little by little.
2. We will be setting up an American account to pay the interest back to them monthly. We are currently paying 8.12% on our second mortgage….so we will save 0 a month with the loan
