Experience that matters

A Real Homeowner
Kevin Helped

Dr. Steven worked with Kevin through a challenging Seattle condominium sale. His words reflect the communication, problem-solving, and steady coordination that can matter when a sale becomes complicated.

“While others might have buckled under the pressure, he kept the process moving with confidence and clarity.”

A clearer view of the choices

Possible Options

Available options depend on your loan, finances, notices, and timing. These are starting points for a conversation with the appropriate professional.

01

Talk with your mortgage servicer

Use the contact information on your mortgage statement. Ask about assistance, required documents, and response deadlines.

Start with your servicer
02

Speak with a housing counselor

A counselor can help you understand options, work with your servicer, and check eligibility for Washington foreclosure mediation.

03

Ask about payment assistance

A modification, repayment plan, or temporary forbearance may be available. Your servicer determines eligibility; forbearance does not erase missed payments.

Discuss terms with your servicer
04

Consider selling your property

Review market value, mortgage payoff, other liens, sale costs, and timing. Kevin can help assess the real estate side of a possible sale.

Explore a short sale if appropriate

Selling for less than the mortgage balance requires lender approval. Review the written terms and potential debt or tax consequences with qualified advisers.

Lender approval and professional advice
06

Get advice about legal deadlines

A Washington attorney can explain your notices, rights, and time-sensitive choices. Contact legal help promptly when a sale or response deadline is near.

Legal guidance from an attorney

Can I sell my house before foreclosure in Washington?

A sale may be an option if there is enough time to close and address the mortgage and other obligations. Kevin can help you assess market conditions, preparation priorities, and a realistic sale strategy. Listing your home does not, by itself, stop or postpone foreclosure.
