Foreclosures and Evictions for FHA Insured Mortgages Suspended
LOUISIANA REALTORS • March 20, 2020
The Federal Housing Administration (FHA) is implementing an immediate foreclosure and eviction moratorium for single family homeowners with FHA-insured mortgages until April 30th. The guidance issued applies to homeowners with FHA-insured Title II Single Family forward and Home Equity Conversion (reverse) mortgages, and directs mortgage servicers to:
FOLLOW HUD UPDATES
- Halt all new foreclosure actions and suspend all foreclosure actions currently in process; and
- Cease all evictions of persons from FHA-insured single-family properties.
FHA continues to encourage servicers to offer loss mitigation options to distressed borrowers – including those that could be impacted by the Coronavirus – to help prevent them from going into foreclosure. These include short and long-term forbearance options, mortgage modifications, and other mortgage payment relief options available based on the borrower’s individual circumstances.
