How much damage will a forclosuer do to a 720 credit score?

Do EVERYTHING possible to prevent the foreclose. Sell - try to explore every option.

First of all, if your facing foreclosure then you don't hold a 720 FICA . Why? your already 3 months late on your mortgage and that has already impacted your score.

In addition, I don't think it is the score you should be worried about its the history. The he question being " How many lenders will loan you money if they know you didn't pay it back in the first place?"

With that being said I understand all to well things happen , life is not something we can control so if your forced into a foreclosure try to focus on getting a financial plan to gather and move forward towards your future, the past will drag you down.

Regardless what anyone may say ( experience speaks for its self) Anything can be repaired but prevention is the best solution when possible

Good Luck

Hi, quite a bit, from the link below, a foreclosure is 250 points or so. A short sale is 80-100 points. If you can get a short sale done, that would be better. A short sale is when you sell your house for less than it's worth, and the bank agrees to take the lesser amount rather than foreclosing on you and them being stuck with the house.

I'm all for people paying what they owe but if you got conned into buying a house that was way over your head, don't feel too bad about it, there's millions of people who got taken. Dave Ramsey has a great system but he never tells you to throw in the towel. A TON of people got ripped off in the latest housing bubble.

If for example you bought a $500,000 in California and the agent exagerrate your income and you had a teaser rate and now suddenly your mortgage payment has gone from 2000 to 4000 on a house that today is worth only $400,000 - walk away...just rent for a few years. Take the Fico hit. Don't go broke just to keep a stupid house.

You will need a very good lawyer for this one. It will damage your credit significantly, so don't try to buy any property until you get things worked out.

What credit?

In short, a lot.

Foreclosing on a mortgage will realistically drop your credit rating at least 200 points. Probably the only thing worse is to declare bankruptcy.

It will take 8 years for a foreclosure record to disappear from your credit report, meaning you probably won't see a credit score approaching 700 again until that 8 year period is up. During that time you will encounter difficulty getting credit at fair rates, even if you handle everything else on your credit report properly. Banks will require more collateral, higher down payments on loans, and charge higher interest rates than you are used to.
If you are in danger of foreclosing, try to get out of that loan as soon as possible to minimize the damage to your credit.

Probably pretty much trashed. Can't see it being any better than going bankrupt. Can you?
