Illegitimate foreclosure assistance counseling agencies often prey upon those in need of financial assistance. These services promise that, for a small fee, they can work with your lenders to get you the foreclosure assistance you need. Too often, however, the assistance they promise to provide is something you could well do yourself free of charge. The majority of these "counseling" services only call to negotiate a temporary payment arrangement with your lender. This is a step you should take yourself before calling anyone for foreclosure assistance.
