Mortgage Relief /Avoid Foreclosure:

The website MakingHomeAffordable.gov is there to help get you mortgage relief and avoid foreclosure. If you or someone you know needs assistance, they can help you find programs that can help -- both online and through a free, 24/7 support line that can connect you with housing experts.
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is looking out for homeowners who might be victims of predatory lending or unfair consumer practices. Find out how to get help, or submit a complaint if you believe you've been taken advantage of. They've also got a special section that can help walk you through mortgage jargon.

Take a minute to inform your family and friends, so that people who might not know about these resources can start getting help if they need it.
