There are several owners who have followed these methods by delaying proceedings and gaining the benefit of living in their homes for several years without paying a cent.

Be armed with proof of the reason you got into the financial crisis and why you had no option but to fall back on your payments. In this process the best method that usually works with a judge is a hardship letter. Make sure that you are one step ahead of your lender and when you know you are really in a soup and your home will be foreclosed, send out the hardship letter to your lender. You will probably get warning letters prior to that or endless phone calls so it’s up to you to plan ahead to buy time. Explain in detail all the financial problems that you are having and ask for time to sort out matters. If done carefully and methodically, you will be able to live in your home for at least 2 years when the lender files action for foreclosure.
