"If you are behind on your monthly bills, including your mortgage, our partnership will offer Freddie Mac clients free, confidential financial counseling assistance through our HUD-approved agency and certified counselors," said Billie Passmore, InCharge's Director of Housing Outreach. "The counseling can be done either in person or on the telephone, and the knowledge you will receive could be the difference between losing your home and saving your future."
During these free sessions, your counselor will:
- Review your current income, living expenses, savings, and debts;
- Help you understand your options and possible solutions to your financial challenges; and
- Assess your options for avoiding foreclosure, which could include a loan modification available under the federal Making Home Affordable program or another borrower assistance program.
To take advantage of free counseling from the Borrower Help Network, homeowners with Freddie Mac-owned mortgages should call 877-300-4179 to set up an appointment with a Certified Housing Counselor. There is no obligation for you to take any action after your session. Contact us at:
