    Atlanta Homeowners Worried About Foreclosing In 2021, Report Says

    2 Min Read

    Atlanta homeowners have the highest anxiety about facing foreclosure going into 2021, according to a new report from RedFin.

    About 3.8% of the city’s property owners are concerned about their mortgages. Atlanta also has the fourth-highest share of homeowners who are delinquent on their mortgage payments (13.5%).

    Atlanta Homeowners Concerned About Foreclosing In 2021

    The high numbers can be attributed to a misconception that Atlantans had over what to do with their mortgages when the COVID-19 pandemic hit.

    “There was a misunderstanding in Atlanta for what the different options are for people in forbearance,” said Atlanta Redfin agent Ronisha Carson. “People didn’t know they could refinance, do a prorated monthly payment or tack it on to the end of their loan.”

    “In my experience selling foreclosed properties, some people don’t take advantage of forbearance because they aren’t educated on what it entails,” said Redfin agent Gina Sapnar. “There are people who are in forbearance who don’t understand how repayment works. For some people payments are tacked on to the end of the loan, but for others it may be a large payment due immediately at the end of forbearance as a lump sum, which could be very tough for people to repay.”

    Wave Of Foreclosures Likely In 2021

    Because many mortgage lenders are ending their assistance programs, RedFin is forecasting a wave of foreclosures in 2021. How bad will it be? Not as bad as the Great Recession of 2009, according to real estate professionals.

    Experts are hoping that federal and state authorities step up this time — not lenders — to buoy homeowners.

    Final Thoughts

    If you’re a homeowner in financial distress, there are some avenues you can take to get assistance. Here are some housing resources you can take advantage of.

    Thinking of acquiring a property in foreclosure? Here’s what you need to know.

    Atlanta has one of the best real estate markets in the country, with affordable housing in every quadrant of the city. Large backyards, manicured parcels and strong neighborhoods with ample dining amenities make it one of the top places for transplants.

    Southside: The southside of town is generally considered more affordable, especially below Interstate 20 — but there are also upscale properties in the vicinity.

    Northside: Atlanta’s north side is generally the area’s most expensive part of town. Anything near what is considered North Atlanta — Buckhead, Brookhaven, Doraville and Chamblee — will generally cost you more money to rent.

    Here’s how to tell if your mic is muted or not

    If you see a red diagonal line over your mic icon, then you’re muted. That means the interviewer can’t hear your video.

    zoom interview questions

    Similarly, if you see a red diagonal line over your video icon, then you can’t be seen.

    2. How Early Should You Be For A Zoom Interview?

    The guidance on a video interview is that you want to be on time, but not necessarily early. The reason is because many interviewers are busy and likely won’t open the video portal until the appointed time.

    That’s not to say that you shouldn’t be there early. Chances are that you will be a bit nervous so it’s best to be there before the interview time. But there’s no must-be time to log on. Just be there a minute or so early and you’ll be fine.

    3. Zoom Interview Questions

    As with any interview, you’re going to have to ace the questions thrown at you. On Zoom, that’s going to depend a great deal on how prepared you look as well as sound.

    Here are some interview questions you should always have an answer to:

    • “Why do you want to work here?”
    • “Tell me a time when you were unsuccessful at work?”
    • “Where do you see yourself in five years?”
    • “What skills would you bring to the job?”

    4. Zoom Interview Answers

    Here are some winning answers to each of the above interview questions:

    • “I want to work here to explore new challenges that are important in my career development.” Go on to explain some positives about the company/position and ask them to expand on them.
    • “There were a few times when the results I received from my work were less than I expected.” Go to expand on how you turned a challenge into an opportunity.
    • “I see myself with a track record of successes that will continue to help the company’s stature as well as their bottom line.” You can use this to pivot to some successes you note about the company.
    • “I bring X-amount of years of experience in [given profession].” Again, use this opportunity to shine a light on your resume as well as some things that you want them to know about you.

    5. Zoom Interview Tips

    If you want some general tips on how to prepare for a Zoom interview, here’s what to know.

    1. Set up your video in a secluded and quiet place in your home
    2. Make sure you have adequate lighting, but not too much light
    3. Check your internet connection for lags or interruptions
    4. Make sure your webcam shows clear and not grainy
    5. Dress professional and yes, wear pants

    Bottom Line

    Before your Zoom interview, one way you can make sure you have everything the way you want is to do a practice run.

    Get a family member or friend to do a video call with you and check for any technical difficulties. You’ll also want to wear the clothes you’ll wear on the interview so you can see how they work in the lighting.

    Video calls are a great way to conduct an interview remotely. As with all things, exude confidence and your interview will go fine. Above all, believe in yourself.
