Home Owners do you have questions about or need help with your mortgage payment? We’re with you.
Marine Bank is focused on your physical and financial well-being, and we’re here to help. We’ve compiled some commonly asked questions and how we can help you during this challenging time:
How long do I have to make my payment without any late charges or impact on my credit report?
While your mortgage payment is due on the 1st of the month, it is not considered late or subject to late fees until after the 15th of the month. Any lender must wait a full 30 days after your payment due date before reporting a late payment to credit bureaus.
What if I am having trouble making payments? Is there any type of mortgage relief available?
We have relief programs available, including a minimum of 90 days of payment forbearance, to help our mortgage clients through these tough times. We encourage you to contact us so we can help with your payment relief needs based on your situation. If any of the following situations pertain to you, please contact Marine Bank so that we can help you figure out what relief options are available and best for you.
