I only put 5.000 down per each and they qualified me. The initial idea was to sell them as soon as they were finished or even before. They got me a construction loan that matures in 2 weeks, then I have to convert it to a permanent mortgage, the situation I'm facing now is that with the changes of the real estate market I'm upside down in both propreties, they've been on the MLS for 4 months and we haven't received one call. I have to start making payments ($ 2,700 each for a total of $5,400), and I simply cannot afford that. I don't know what to do. How bad is to just go on foreclosure for both properties. _________________ Need help choosing the right loan? Get free consultation from community lenders/consultant

Foreclosure will have a bad affect on your credit profile so it is best to avoid it if there are other options available.

Foreclosure will harm your future borrowing capability. You need to explain to lender that you will not be able to make the payments because of financial problems. He may be able to develop some repayment plan which you can afford. Collett

Foreclosure on two propeties is indeed something that's going to affect your credit badly. I would advice you to stay away from it. Did you take help from a real estate agent for selling the properties? Such a person can help you find a suitable buyer. You can also consider offering the property for lease to purchase. This may attract buyers who may rent the property for some years and then purchase it from you. At least, you can pay off the construction loan, convert it into permanenet loan and make payments using the rent. Later on, you can have the buyer purchase property and also assume your mortgage. You need to inform the buyer and also the lender offering you the permanent loan. Thanks.
