How to Avoid Self Sabotage - Episode 443

What is it like to rebuild after a foreclosure, after a bankruptcy? What is the real cause of foreclosure, bankruptcy and financial distress? While we have talked about these topics before, this week's guest overcame all of it to form a non-profit that helps people who find themselves in this situation. This week, Shawn & George interview Michael Russell, with Hope 4 Harship, and also the President/Owner of Century 21 Signature Properties, one of the original CENTURY 21 franchises in the country. Hear Micheal's story about divorce, foreclosures, short sales, bankruptcies, and how he overcame that financial distress. We talk about how banks really don't want to foreclose, and how they want to offer assistance (which may or may not be home retention).  We talk about partial claim mortgages, loan modifications, forbearances and the pros and cons of each.  We talk about judicial and non-judicial foreclosures and the differences between them. And yes, we talk a little about bankruptcy.
