The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has several tools to help borrowers avoid foreclosure. One of the resources is through an interest-free second lien—called a partial claim lien—that borrowers can use to pay down arrearages. FHA has reported persistent instances in all areas of the country in recent years where the lien is successfully recorded but not detected by title agents.

According to HUD, the best way to obtain payoffs for partial claims is through the SMART Integrated Portal (SIP). Title companies and attorneys with third-party authorization may create accounts to request and to receive documentation online, often with a short turnaround.

Information and about how to obtain payoffs and make payments can be found here:
