Local Agent Helps Consumers Seeking Mortgage Relief to Avoid Fraud

Help that works!

Minneapolis, MN (Grassroots Newswire) 04/26/2011 -- Online report outlines the warning signs of potentially fraudulent mortgage relief assistance—and provides solutions for homeowners struggling to make mortgage payments in the Minneapolis Metro Area.

Minneapolis, MN – 04/26/2011 – Local CDPE-designated agent, Christopher H. Haas of EXIT Real Estate Advisors, has developed a website report providing information regarding the signs of mortgage relief scams, how to avoid them, and where to find answers from someone you can trust.

“The FBI has reported a growing number of mortgage relief scams each year since the beginning of the mortgage crisis,” Haas said. “With this report, I’m showing homeowners what they need to watch out for, as well as viable options they can pursue to avoid losing their home to foreclosure.”

The FBI reported a jump of 71% in mortgage relief fraud investigations from 2008-2009, and Haas expects this number to have grown in 2010. As the mortgage crisis continues to claim more and more Americans, Haas sees the need to educate these homeowners on the cautions they need to take.

This community resource is available at www.haasgrouphelps.com and explains the warning signs that a homeowner should watch for when looking for mortgage relief, like paying upfront fees. The report also provides information on alternatives the distressed homeowner can pursue if they want to avoid foreclosure.

“Upfront fees, signing over your deed, bankruptcy filing without the owners knowledge—these are a few of the many types of mortgage relief fraud.” Haas said. “I can share viable solutions that actually help distressed homeowners reach a common goal, which is to avoid foreclosure.”

The CDPE Designation Haas has acquired provides a specific understanding of the complex issues confronting distressed homeowners. Through comprehensive training and experience, CDPE-designated agents are able to provide solutions for homeowners facing financial hardship in today’s market.
