Avoiding Foreclosure; Who to call when lender won't talk to you

You've done all your homework, talked to a housing counselor and tried to talk to your lender. But, the lender won't work with you. What do you do now?
For an FHA-insured loanYour lender has to follow FHA servicing guidelines and regulations for FHA-insured loans. If your lender is not cooperative, contact FHA's National Servicing Center at toll free (888) 297-8685 or via email.

For a VA-insured loanFirst, visit the VA Foreclosure Alternatives page. If you need assistance or have additional questions, talk to a Loan Service Representative.

For conventional loansIf you have a conventional loan, first talk to a HUD approved Housing Counselor (or call (800) 569-4287). They may be able to help you with your lender. You can also contact Hope Now (1-888-995-HOPE) to ask for assistance in working with your lender.
