Who's name is the mortgage in?

How much are the arrears?

How much is the house worth?

How much was the original loan for?

How many months left on the term of the loan (exact number please)?

Are you and your husband employed?

Where are you getting the 3k from?

What was the reason your husband did not pay the mortgage?

 

When you say 'taken on 20th' do you mean that you have received a Notice of Eviction?

 

You will need an income and expenditure form (see the sticky thread at the top of the repossessions forum created by Ell-enn, she has linked to the various documents you will need there).

Can you answer all the questions in the order they were put in please?

It just makes it easier to assist you to have the information in order.

 

The date you received the eviction notice is irrelevant. Your husband's diagnosis is relevant - though your arrears are exceptionally high.

 

Are there any other loans secured on the property?

3k is what we would have paid December plus what we have in the bank, this prove we are not wasting money, even more so over the xmas period.

Husband has mental health issues but is a very good man, he has tried taking his own life.

 

Thanks for your input

[confuseddotcom]

Sorry, no there are no other loans secured on this debt

[Rocco17]

So sorry to hear about your situation confuseddotcom, but all is not lost, although things have to move quite quickly now. You basically need to apply to the court as soon as you can.

 

Have you filled in an income and expenditure form yet and has the lender even tried to come to a payment arrangement with you?

 

You say that you can get your husband's wages paid directly to the lender, this be the monthly payment plus what else towards the arrears?

Thank you, not filled one in yet but will do. Mortgage company do not want to know. Payment would be monthly including at least six hundred off the outstanding. Paying three k tomorrow just to prove that my husband has tried.

 

Thanks again

Okay - firstly, you should get a letter from your hubby's GP to confirm the diagnosis, and a brief explanation of how it affected your husband and how it may have contributed to the arrears.

 

Secondly, you should fill in an income and expenditure form, and find out if you can afford the following payment monthly towards the arrears - in addition to this you will have to pay your usual monthly instalment. This figure is in line with the relevant case law for your circumstances, Cheltenham & Gloucester B.S v Norgan: 172.00 per month. This is the (rounded up) minimum that you can pay off your arrears in order to clear the amount before the end of the loan term, taking into consideration the 3k that you are planning on paying tomorrow. If you cannot pay the 3k then the minimum payment would be 185 pounds per month.

 

You must ensure that you can afford this payment, hence completing an income and expenditure form.

 

Once you have done the I&E and established whether or not you can afford the minimum payment above - you will need a form N244 to make a stay application for the eviction. You should attempt to get this into court by tomorrow, or at the very latest on Monday morning, so that you can get a hearing before a judge.

 

It is likely, if you can show that you can pay the arrears off within the term of the mortgage, that the judge will stay the eviction and you will revert to the position of having a suspended possession order on the property. If you keep making the payments, nothing further will happen. You should take complete control of the finances related to the mortgage if you think your husband may have a relapse of his illness.

 

I think your biggest hurdle will be that there was already an SPO in place which presumably you knew about given that it is a joint mortgage...so the mortgagee may argue in court that you should have known there were further defaults. Just be aware of that. Given that you have a joint income that should cover the CMI plus amount towards the arrears, you should stand a reasonable chance of having the eviction stayed.

 

But your arrears are very high - do you know if they include additional charges, or are they literally just missed payments? In which case how many months/years do they amount to?

[Lea_HTH]

And finally...how much were the arrears at the point the original SPO was granted? And how long ago was that? And take along payslips from both yourself and your husband to prove your income - 3-6 months worth should be sufficient.

[Ell-enn]

Affixed is the budget sheet we normally use in these situations (it calculates automatically as you enter the figures). Also affixed is an N244 form which you will need to complete and get to the court asap. If you need help with the form please let us know, also Q.10 of the form is very important -it's where you describe your side of the story - again, I can help you with setting out the statement, just ask.

 

Would you be able to get a letter from your doctor tomorrow re your husband's medical condition?

Well its easier for them if you don't make a proposal, but they can't just ignore you. They have to consider any reasonable offer to clear the arrears.

Regarding what they said about the payment not stopping the eviction, although this is true and not nice to hear, try not to get too stressed over it. Its something they always say, I expect to cover themselves.

 

Personally I would make a proposal to them, although at this stage getting the case to court in time is much more important.

 

As Lea says, you do have a good chance here if you can show the court details of your husband's illness and show that you can afford to repay.

thank you so much, my husband has also been to the police to report how he has been under pressure, i have a letter from them, should i include the letter from his work saying that his salary is now being paid direct into the account from the end of the month? From september he had been paying reugulary each month but because 400 was late, he though he kept them informed by email and have a letter from the bank to prove. We have kept the monthly payment to prove that we are sorted and can pay. Its mad we have no other debt apart from normal bills. My husband is so so scared.

 

Whatever happens, i can not explain how you have all made us feel about this, you are very good people.

[Ell-enn]

Hi there, do you need help with the N244 and statement to go with it ? You need to get it to the court today - I have a little free time this morning to help you.

You are welcome. I can only go on my own personal experience, from the help I received on this forum and from what I have read in other threads (I would recommend you doing the same, it does help to put your mind at rest to a degree).

 

I can safely say that you are in the right hands having Ell-enn helping you. Please do let us know what happens if you can. Very best of luck to you and your family

Hi sorry, by private mess so it does not go on the forum

[Ell-enn]

It's against site rules to give advice solely by private message. However if there are some details that you would prefer to keep private then you can send me a PM. but this thread will need to be updated with how things are progressing.

Hi

 

So what do we need to do now, as in what info do you need etc, thank you so much again.

[Ell-enn]

Hi, need a few answers before we can get to work on the statement:

 

 

Have you completed the budget sheet ? if so how much does it show you can afford to pay towards the arrears each month ?

 

Do you have a letter from your doctor confirming your husband's medical condition?

 

Do you have the letter from your hysband's employer stating they will make payments to the mortgage account from his salary?

 

Did you make a payment today? ( you said in an earlier post you were planning to pay £3k)

hi

 

We can afford up to six hundred a month, i know thats how mad a situation it is.

 

We have letter from employer about salary payment and also that he has been to see them to ask for help and councelling after admitting everything, a big brave step.

 

Letter from gp not ready until monday monrning. Have not made payment as wanted to check that we should with you, but money is there so its no problem. When it is paid it will put us 700 in front of the arrangement set up in september, the cancelled due to a payment of 400 late due to bank account being frozen, letter to prove again. They were kept up to date but did not even reply to email just waited for it then sent a letter advising of eviction, to pay as much as we can and they would review it but then we offered three k and they just said no.
