Subject: Wisconsin Sample Letter to Stop Foreclosure Sale — Comprehensive Guide Dear [Lender/Bank's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring your attention to the urgent matter concerning the foreclosure proceedings on my property. It has come to my knowledge that a foreclosure sale is scheduled to take place on [date] and I would like to request an immediate stop to this sale. First and foremost, I want to express my deep concern over the possibility of losing my home. Over the years, I have diligently made an effort to fulfill my mortgage obligations. However, due to unforeseen circumstances [provide brief explanation if applicable, e.g., loss of employment, medical setback, divorce], I experienced financial hardships, which led to the current predicament. In light of the current situation, I would like to propose working towards an alternative solution to foreclosure. Wisconsin state law acknowledges the importance of finding alternatives to foreclosure by encouraging communication and cooperation between homeowners and lenders. I believe that finding a resolution that benefits both parties is possible and strive to reach a mutually agreeable outcome. Therefore, I kindly request that you consider the following options: 1. Loan Modification: Exploring the possibility of modifying the terms of the mortgage loan, such as reducing the interest rate, extending the loan period, or temporarily reducing the monthly payment amount, would greatly assist in stabilizing my financial situation. 2. Forbearance Agreement: I propose entering into a forbearance agreement, which allows for temporary suspension or reduction of my mortgage payments for a specific period until I can get back on my feet financially. Upon resumption of normal payments, I commit to pay any arrears in accordance with an agreed-upon repayment plan. 3. Short Sale: If it is determined that I cannot sustain homeownership despite my best efforts, I would be open to exploring the possibility of a short sale. This involves selling the property at fair market value, with the lender's consent, even if the proceeds may not cover the full loan amount. 4. Deed in Lieu of Foreclosure: As a last resort, in the event that neither of the previous options are viable, I would consider offering a voluntary transfer of the property back to the lender through a Deed in Lieu of Foreclosure. This avoids the lengthy and costly foreclosure process and allows a smoother transition for both parties concerned. In addition to exploring these alternatives, I am actively seeking financial counseling and guidance to improve my financial situation and avoid any future difficulties with mortgage payments. I believe that with your cooperation and willingness to consider my situation, we can find a viable solution that will benefit all parties involved. In accordance with Wisconsin state laws, please provide a written response within [specific time frame as per state regulations] regarding the status of my request to halt the foreclosure sale, and the possibility of pursuing one of the alternatives mentioned above. I appreciate your attention to this urgent matter and look forward to a prompt response. Should you require any additional documentation or further discussion, please do not hesitate to contact me at [phone number] or [email address]. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
