Keeping the roof over your head is harder now days than ever before.
The housing market in Florida has taken a hit harder than most baseballs in the big leagues. Now days, it just about takes a big league paycheck to keep the lenders at bay and avoid foreclosure on your most prized possession, your home. The face of foreclosure encompasses young and old, large and small wrinkle and those without a blemish. Just take a look around and you’re bound to look right into the eyes of someone trying to stop a foreclosure.
It wasn’t always like this. Just a few years back the housing market in Florida was on the rise and just about everyone you knew was buying or selling a home. The cost of living was high, but not unbearable. That is when the greed of the masses set in. Several people decided it was the time to invest in real estate and now those same people are losing month after month on houses that are not selling or renting.
So what’s a person to do? Well, just like in baseball you have to put your game face on, in the housing market you need to take off your gloom and doom mask, put a smile on your face and realize life isn’t over just because of a foreclosure. Yes your credit will be damaged, yes you will face some financial hardships, but life will not be over.
Like the old saying, when the going gets tough, the tough get going. So get going on looking for a new job, increasing your cash flow and facing your financial blunders. In time, your credit will get repaired, you will have anther home and your life will get back on track. If you find yourself facing foreclosure, seek wise counsel and know that like everything else the face of foreclosure will change as well.
