Beating Repossession
Posted: Mar 31, 2009 |
]]>
Unfortunately and due to the current state of the economy more and more properties are being repossessed. For property investors this brings opportunity. Mortgage lenders need to sell the house in order to recoup the money they lent the borrower. As a result this often means the property is sold at auction at below market value.
below market value. Sometimes this can be up to 30% below market value making them ideal property investments for the savvy UK property investor.
Lenders usually repossess properties because the borrower is unable to keep up with the mortgage payments. Normally a lender can start proceedings through a county court to repossess a property after 2 months of mortgage arrears. One important distinction is the difference between foreclosure and repossession. Foreclosure is basically where the property is taken sold and the entire proceeds are kept. Repossession is similar however the balance after all deductions is given back to the debtor.

Initially the lender will send reminder notices then call this will be followed by solicitor letters. After around 6 months County Court Repossession proceedings will begin. However it is not too late to avoid repossession at this stage. It is possible to sell a property before or during repossession proceedings. This can be done by using a sell and rent back scheme. This allows the homeowner to sell the property and rent it back. This provides a number of benefits for the homeowner wishing to avoid repossession
The homeowner can continue to live in the property
They don’t have to move away from the area
They relieve financial burden by no longer having to pay a mortgage
In some cases homeowners receive a lump sum from built up equity
The rent paid is often lower than their previous mortgage payments
Sell and rent back schemes are often ideal options for people wishing to sell quickly in order to avoid repossession. The positive thing about repossession is that should legal proceedings start it is never too late to do something as long as you communicate and work with your lender to come to an arrangement. There will most likely always be an investor ready to buy a below market value property or an investment company willing to offer a sell and rent back scheme.
If you are in debt and worried about losing your home a debt management company could help you out of debt.
