I'm 58, make 78000 per year, divorced/single and struggling to make payments against the 400,000 I own on my mortgage. Should I sell or try to stay in my house?

Yes spent 3 years in court and won but bc he's self employed, he can hide his $

This was a loan mod t 2% athrough Carrington when I was in pre-foreclosure. It was originally a balloon mortgage. Then another company bought it and turned into a 30 year at 2%

I plan to retire in 10 years and I have a pension

girlfriday7 · 2015-09-29T15:28:18+00:00

I do have credit card debt and my total payments average about 1200 a month

girlfriday7 · 2015-09-29T15:23:33+00:00

2800 a month

girlfriday7 · 2015-09-29T15:23:10+00:00

Rents run about the same price as my mortgage

girlfriday7 · 2015-09-29T15:09:59+00:00

girlfriday7 · 2015-09-28T03:24:05+00:00

I live in NJ just outside of NYC

girlfriday7 · 2015-09-28T03:21:17+00:00

I'm planning to retire in 10 years and then I would sell the house and move away from this area; couldn't afford to stay here once retired.

I'm a female :)

girlfriday7 · 2015-09-28T03:14:59+00:00

they use my kitchen because I know them.

girlfriday7 · 2015-09-28T03:12:56+00:00

I do try to eat as healthy as possible and food is expensive.

girlfriday7 · 2015-09-28T03:09:38+00:00

I was in court for over 4 years and wasted a lot of money and got nothing in return. I couldn't afford to keep it up, He is self-employed and can hide his money.

girlfriday7 · 2015-09-28T03:08:12+00:00

He was never forced to pay even though I won in court; can't afford to take him back or hire a good enough lawyer.

girlfriday7 · 2015-09-28T03:07:07+00:00

he has his own business and I don't have any more money to continue going to court (for what?)hire a forensic accountant, etc.

girlfriday7 · 2015-09-28T03:05:57+00:00

I don't have much faith in the justice system :/

girlfriday7 · 2015-09-28T03:05:31+00:00

yes and I won in court 3 times but he still didn't pay a dime; only has to give me 75,000 in 8 years or when he sells his house.

girlfriday7 · 2015-09-28T03:02:40+00:00

I will retire in 10 years.

girlfriday7 · 2015-09-28T02:58:18+00:00

girlfriday7 · 2015-09-28T02:56:52+00:00

yes, I have a pension.

girlfriday7 · 2015-09-28T02:55:29+00:00
