HAFA is a program primarily designed for homeowners who are unable to stay in their home even with a loan modification under the Home Affordable Modification Program (HAMP). Under HAFA, homeowners may be able to avoid a foreclosure by selling the home as a “short sale” (where the value of the home is less than the remaining amount of the mortgage) or by transferring title to the lender through a process called a “deed-in-lieu of foreclosure.”

Allows borrowers to receive pre-approved short sales terms before listing the property (including the minimum acceptable net proceeds and acceptable closing costs).

Requires borrowers to be fully released from future liability for the first mortgage debt and, if the subordinate lien holders receive an incentive under HAFA, those debts as well (no cash contribution, promissory note, or deficiency judgment is allowed).

Complements HAMP by providing a viable alternative for borrowers (the current homeowners) who are HAMP eligible but nevertheless unable to keep their home.

Uses borrower financial and hardship information already collected under HAMP.

Castle Dream Real Estate looks to help homeowners with an alternative to foreclosure.
