If you have a Utah Housing loan and have been financially impacted by COVID-19, please know there are options to help during this crisis. A mortgage forbearance, enabled by the CARES Act, is an option for families unable to make their payments. Forbearance is when your mortgage payment is paused or reduced for a limited period of time. Forbearance doesn’t erase what you owe – you will still have to repay any missed or reduced payments in the future – either through a repayment plan or loss mitigation. Reach out to us at 801-902-8300 or 1-800-344-0452 to make arrangements or email uhc_servicing@uthc.org if you can’t make a full payment. We have many homeowners calling with questions, so you may have longer than typical wait times. Please be patient as we are trying to help people as quickly as we can. If you leave a message, we will return your call as soon as possible. Please include the best numbers to call, your name and loan number, and the best time to reach you. We are here to help!
