The Transition Assistance Program (“TAP”) has been developed to provide homeowners with transition assistance when determined they can no longer keep or afford their home. The TAP Program is designed for helping homeowners who have tried several times to modify or resolve their mortgage hardship. If a homeowner cannot modify or payback the past due balance, then extra aggressive protection for the homeowner is needed. The TAP program is designed to allow a California homeowner to resolve the mortgage debt through sale of the property. If a California homeowner cannot keep their home, then they will be able to avoid foreclosure on their own terms. Keeping you in control and doing what is best for you and your family, not the mortgage lender or servicer.
This is not a traditional real estate transaction. Experience with lenders while in foreclosure, negotiations with lenders, and legal protections are absolutely needed for success.
