Learn how to differentiate between loan modification and forbearance agreements to ensure the best option for your clients.

Oftentimes, borrowers encounter a temporary hardship that prevents them from making mortgage payments on a timely basis. When contacted by this borrower for assistance, a forbearance agreement may be the solution to their problem.

This topic will provide insight to the person negotiating or drafting forbearance agreements on behalf of creditors as to what provisions should be included in forbearance agreements.

This information is critical for creditors wishing to avoid loss of priority, statute of limitations issues and litigation, should the borrowers default after executing the forbearance agreement.
