When financial hardship makes it difficult to keep up with mortgage payments, homeowners often fear the possibility of foreclosure. However, forbearance can be a powerful tool to provide temporary relief while keeping your home. Understanding how forbearance works and how to navigate it effectively can make all the difference.
At Syan Real Estate, we’ve helped homeowners explore solutions to avoid foreclosure, and forbearance is often a key strategy. Here’s what you need to know about how it works and how it can help you regain financial stability.
