In Foreclosure???How to Get Your House Back

By Doc Schmyz

Your house is the last thing that you want to loose. Unfortunately even though we know this for a fact, we tend to take our mortgage payments for granted and end up loosing our homes. In this case, a home foreclosure will happen. When a borrower fails to pay his or her mortgage for a number of payments (usually 3 the lender will issue a foreclosure by selling the house or repossessing it.

Often the lenders lead their borrowers to believe that they don't have other options available. However, there are other alternatives that homeowners can use to keep their house off the auction block. The following is a list of ideas to consider if your in the foreclosure process.

1)Short stop

You can try to get a short refinance for the foreclosure of your property. If you don't want a new loan to cover an existing one, you can ask the help of a friend. A borrower's friend or relative can buy or pay off the mortgage.

2)Negotiate a payment scheme

In this case the homeowner agrees to pay a portion of the amount and agrees to pay the rest in the succeeding months. The homeowner shows proof of their income and pays a down payment. This is a much easier way and most lenders agree to this plan. Keep in mind this is not a long term fix...it is normally only a short terms(3-5 month) agreement.

3) Change of plans

Sometimes a temporary change in the terms of the loan can be given when properly negotiated. These changes include amortization extension and reduction of interest rate. A foreclosure negotiator handles the job of getting these plans approved. This is a total process for another short term fix.

4) Third party sale

The foreclosure property is sold to a third party. The proceeds will go to the mortgage lender as a settlement for the debt. This is the most common conclusion to a foreclosure.

5) Friendly third party sale

The third party who buys the property sells it on foreclosure to clean the deed of other holders/liens. Then the property is sold back to the original owners/borrower. Under a new contract of sale and then the process is complete. Manytimes this is a "seller financing" deal.

These are just some of the options that borrowers can use in attempts to retain their properties. Remember these alternatives are outside the original terms of the agreement. Homeowners will have to negotiate their way with lenders and banks. Preventing home foreclosure is still better than looking for a cure. - 23208

Terms used in Stock Trading

By Mara Hernandez-Capili

If you are new in stocks trading it is always best to be familiar with the different terms being used on the subject. As a brief recap, a stock trading is the act of buying and selling of stocks through a broker who acts as a medium for the client and the trader (company). The role of the broker is to find and buy stocks for his client and so as to analyze, discuss and track the current market trends. When you buy a share you become a part-owner of the company where you have instant privilege such as voting rights.

A capital gain is the term used to describe the increase rate that your capital received because of the increase in the companys profits. It is one of the reasons why people consider stock trading as an investment. Stocks can have high capital gains depending on how many shares were purchased. The higher the shares, the greater the capital gains if the market increases value.

A buy and hold strategy is the term used when a stock is bought and held for a long period of time regardless of the fluctuations or positive rise in the market. This is in belief that in a matter of years, a stock may increase its value to more than 100% of its original capital gain. Some people exercise this strategy while some dont, for they would not want to wait long enough to access their capital gains.

A current market value is the term used to describe the current worth of portfolios, stocks or shares. A share does not have a fixed value because of the fluctuations in the market. In order to have high capital gains, people wait until the stocks are priced at a minimum market value. This usually happens when the company is a new company or is just starting to be publicly listed. Over time, as the company gain its profits it is also more likely that its shares become greater in value.

The last term is the aggressive term. The term is used to describe the way an investor invests in high risk shares. The greater the number of shares you purchased, the higher the risks involved. This is mostly played by sophisticated investors. - 23208

Insurance Problems and the Economy

By Rick Amorey

The concept of insurance is getting a lot of mishaps in recent news. Something that is normally considered as a way to lessen financial risk is now ending up a factor that actually increases it. Nowadays, with the downhill trend of economy that we are currently facing, insurance companies that declare bankruptcy is a frightening prospect for a lot of people who have done business with them.

But why the distrust with insurance companies these days? There are speculations that it's because of a company's direct refusal to insure a person with a high likelihood of loss. For example, someone who engages in extreme or contact sports will have a low chance of getting life insurance. If you're someone with a high-risk profile, you may have problems getting legally insured. To a lot of people, this is the exact opposite of what insurance is.

Which leads us to the question: What is insurance supposed to be? Many of us invest in insurance without completely understanding how this affects our finances. In anything concerning money, a blind investment puts it in serious risk.

At the heart of it, if you are buying insurance, you are essentially accepting a definite loss of assets (the case being, the payment of a periodical premium) so that even more losses will be averted. But, the loss should be accidental; an insured person cannot deliberately cause something that will allow him or her to gain insurance money. Although it's understandable, there are quite a few unsavory characters who have purposely gotten themselves hurt to gain insurance

This is where problems come in. The concept of mitigating an accidental loss becomes an issue if the company suddenly declares bankruptcy. If so, you would definitely feel like you accepted a devastating loss without no compensation whatsoever. And this is what angers a lot of people. - 23208
