  • Foreclosure Prevention

Let's try to find a way for you to keep your home.

Belay Bank and the federal government offer foreclosure alternatives and counseling resources.

Every year, thousands of Americans lose their jobs, have medical emergencies, or encounter some other financial hardship that prevents them from making mortgage payments. At Belay Bank, we understand this is a stressful time, and we invite borrowers to come to us to discuss their options.

  • You might qualify for a modification of your repayment plan or the overall loan terms.
  • A pre-foreclosure sale may allow you to sell your home and use the net proceeds to satisfy your mortgage debt, even though the proceeds are less than what you owe.
  • A deed-in-lieu of foreclosure would convey your interest in your home to us to satisfy your mortgage debt.
