Regions’ dedicated mortgage payment assistance team is prepared to assist you. We want to keep you in your home.

We can help determine which solution is best in a time of hardship, whether it’s temporary or long-term circumstances. Please call us at 1-800-748-9498, Monday – Thursday 7:30 a.m. to 8 p.m., Friday 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday 8 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. CT. Talking to us is the best thing you can do for your situation. You can also send a secure message through our financial assistance portal and a loan counselor will contact you with further information.

If preserving your home is your goal or perhaps your circumstance is temporary, your mortgage payment assistance options may include:

• Repayment Plan
  • If you have experienced a short-term financial difficulty but are now in an improved financial situation, a repayment plan may be a good option for you. A repayment plan may allow you to make regularly scheduled payments, plus an additional portion of the past due payments to bring your loan current. This option may affect your credit; however.
• Special Forbearance
  • This option temporarily suspends or reduces your regular mortgage payment allowing you time to recover from a short-term financial problem. Once your financial condition improves we can discuss options to bring the loan current. Most often, this option is used during temporary hardship, such as unemployment. This option may affect your credit, however the impact may be less than a series of late payments.
• Mortgage Loan Modification
  • A Loan Modification is a change to the terms of your mortgage in order to cure a delinquency and avoid foreclosure. If you qualify, a modification may include reducing your interest rate, extending the term of your mortgage, and/or capitalizing the delinquent payments.
• Reinstatement
  • The reinstatement amount is the total amount of past due payments that may include late fees and attorney costs.

If you aren’t interested in maintaining ownership of the property and need debt relief, your options may include:

• Temporary Forbearance While Selling Your Home, with listing agreement
• Pre-Foreclosure Sales (Short Sale)
  • If you can no longer afford to keep your home, a short sale may be an option to avoid foreclosure. This allows you to sell your home for less than the outstanding balance of your loan and may (not always) satisfy your debt.
• Deed-in-Lieu
  • With a deed in lieu of foreclosure, you would transfer ownership of your home to Regions voluntarily to avoid foreclosure.
