Mortgage negotiators are real estate financing professionals acting as the intermediary between consumers and
lenders during preforeclosure and foreclosure transactions. A mortgage negotiator works with consumers to help them through
the complex preforeclosure process and help them achieve the best outcome possible. Often, introducing an
objective third party without emotional attachment to the situation is key to successful negotiation.
A typical mortgage negotiator has a working relationship with numerous banks and other lenders and provides the consumer
with options when facing a possible foreclosure. This allows the mortgage negotiator to provide consumers the most efficient
and cost-effective method of handling a troubled mortgage depending on the consumer's financial goals
and circumstances. Mortgage negotiators have helped many consumers relieve the stress of a possible foreclosure and remain
in their homes.
Our goal to preserve America's communities one home at a time. This
necessitates an investment of time, service and hard work of mortgage negotiators in a variety of arenas and communities. Professionals
of the highest standards are members of the National Association of Mortgage Negotiators.
