If you are facing foreclosure, then you are most likely wondering about the foreclosure consequences. Foreclosure consequences will vary from state to state, but there are general consequences of foreclosure which you need to be aware of.
The most obvious foreclosure consequence will be finding a new home. Many rental agencies will look at your credit score before they rent you a home or apartment. With a pending foreclosure, chances are, your credit is not very good. You will also need to come up with enough money for the first months rent, plus security deposit. Some may also ask for the last month’s rent as well.
Your credit rating will also be another foreclosure consequence. If this is your only bad credit rating, then it is possible to reestablish your credit within two years.
Once you have defaulted on your mortgage, it will take at least 5 years to be able to apply for another mortgage through Fannie Mae.
Losing your home not only affects your credit score, but also may affect the relationships within the family as well as any relationships your children may have with the neighbor kids.
