We were in the process of doing a loan modification for the fifth time with the mortgage company. Our house was close to going into foreclosure. After the ban was lifted after Covid, we started getting all these phone calls from real estate people wanting to help us to sell the house. We were wondering how everyone knew.
Mike called and left us a nice message explaining that the ban was lifted and that the house could be foreclosed on and that he wanted to help us. We set up a meet a meeting with him and he came to the house. He made a phone call to our mortgage company to see what exactly was going on. They told him they were still working on it.
We knew with being four years behind in the mortgage there wasn’t much we could do with our financial situation. Mike told us our best bet was a short sale or put it on the market before they foreclose. After a month we decided to put it on the market. Mike set it all up. He took pictures, put it on the MLS, and held an open house.
We accepted an offer and were able to walk away with some money.
The saddest part is that this house was my parents’ house that I grew up in and we bought it from them and raised our family. We fell upon hard times with my husband having a stroke and fell behind in the payments…
Mike was caring and understanding. There was no pressure. He answered all our questions and always answered his phone or got back to us.
