Have you ever noticed what happens when you try to steer a car that’s alignment is off? It keeps pulling to one side or the other. No matter how hard you pull on the wheel, no matter how hard you try to correct the problem, the car continues to pull. I don’t understand car mechanics but I do know that it’s because there’s something wrong with the base of the car.
And until you correct that problem no matter what you do there are going to be issues with the steering. Couldn’t the same be said about your financial goals?
You can try and try to improve your financial situation but if you are in a mortgage that is not conducive to long term financial health or is simply beyond your means, you’re going to continue to have problems. Likewise, if you continue to rent your home instead of build equity the base of your financial plan is to give your time and money away – How likely is that to build a strong financial base?
One solution to consider is buying REO property. If you are a home owner in a loan that isn’t serving you, why not consider selling your home and buying REO property? Imagine the relief of being able to go to bed at night knowing that you owe less for your home than what it is worth? How nice would it feel to know that you could afford your mortgage payments today and for years to come?
REO properties are also a sound investment for first time home buyers. They are a great way to enter the market and begin to build equity, which is the first step towards financial security.
