How important is retaining the family home to you?
Which of the following best describes your situation?
I really want to keep the family home.
Any other relevant information
What is your preferred realistic outcome?
Term extension, part of negative equity write-off, or another solution if becomes available
So far I have kept monthly repayments on the cash loan.
For the past 8 months I have contributed towards mortgage with the maximum amounts I could afford. I may be able to contribute higher amounts, this will affect the quality of life.
Would it be recommended to default on cash loan and put 135 towards mortgage on the monthly basis?
Spouse keeps the electricity account in her name, this also went into arrears (about 600), the electricity company threatens to disconnect the supply by end of this month. What options do I have there? I'm unable to deal with them as I'm not the account holder.
Ongoing health issues for both of us.
In fact spouse doesn't want to hear about mortgage, arrears, debt etc.
What reasonable amount of monthly repayments would keep me afloat
with the bank, I wish to be in the position that bank can agree to lower repayments or dissolve part of the negative equity (thus reducing repayments)?
