Penny McLaughlin of Penny’s Team has expanded an information website for Kitsap County area homeowners in distress: http://www.pennysteam.com/cdpe.

This resource contains eligibility surveys for government programs offering help to distressed homeowners, including the Home Affordable Foreclosure Alternatives Program, which increases the likelihood of a short sale or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure.

“These surveys will let homeowners quickly discover new options made available by the government,” McLaughlin said. “When faced with the possibility of foreclosure, I’ve seen too many homeowners make mistakes because they hadn’t been advised by a qualified professional. These people didn’t know the options available, or even how to find any information on their situation. My website helps to solve this problem.”
