 “The stress of an unmanageable mortgage can cloud everything,” said Marilu Ortiz CDPE, at Real Estate Casablanca. “With nearly one-fourth of all homeowners owing more on their mortgage than their home is worth, the nation’s overall stress level is in the stratosphere,” Ortiz added.

Connected to a network of professional committed to solving the nation’s foreclosure crisis one homeowner at a time, Marilu’s message to financially strapped homeowners: “more help is available than ever before. Since 2007, 7.9 million homes in the United States have been lost to foreclosure, and my mission is to stem the tide of foreclosures within South San Diego.

As a Certified Distressed Property Expert (CDPE), Marilu is knowledgeable of the entire landscape of foreclosure avoidance options and is distinctly qualified to negotiate with banks and help financially strapped homeowners to regain peace of mind and a sense of stability for the future.

Marilu has developed a free report entitled, “Are You Living Under the Cloud of an Unmanageable Mortgage?” that is accessible from her website, www.CasasChulaVista.com

The report provides an overview of qualification criteria for the most common foreclosure alternatives, cites red flags for scams, and reminds home-owners why avoiding foreclosure needs to be a top priority.

Upheaval on Wall Street has gotten a lot of attention, but until recently, homeowners have been left to their own devices. ORTIZ is on a mission to change that.
