Mortgage Modification Explained

Loan modifications come in different forms but quite frequently they involve the reduction of mortgage's interest rate for a specified period of time so the homeowner can continue to make payments and stay in the home. Loans can also be modified so they have a longer amortization term (e.g. 40 year instead of 30 year) which will cause the payments to decrease. Principal writedowns are rare, but they do indeed happen where the bank actually writes down some of the principal amount.

Majority of the home loans needing modifcation today are conforming mortgage loans made by big banks such as HSBC, CitiMortgage, Countrywide, Household, IndyMac, JPMorgan, Wells Fargo, Washington Mutual and Bank of America and based on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac guidelines. Act now since time is really not on your side. Get Started Now!

Loan modifications used to be reserved for borrowers whose mortgages became delinquent because of job losses, divorce proceedings, or illness, but today they are also open to those individuals who are suffering in the aftermath of adjustable rate mortgages skyrocketing and placing the monthly payment beyond the means of the borrower. Even if you have attempted to work with your own lender in the past and have come away from that experience with a less than positive experience, we can help. Understanding the plight facing homeowners today and the very real threat of foreclosure, legal assistance during the process of applying for a loan modification is essential in the attempt to make the lender sit up and listen and provide the best possible solution for any homeowner before it is too late.

Recent Loan Modification Questions


Q: im currently in chapter 13 bankruptcy and pay 189 dollars every 2 weeks i have an interest rate 6.78 on my home which is not in the bankruptcy do i qualify for a loan modifacation i am not behind on payments

Posted By: mrtheking on Jan 25, 2012 02:26PM

A: With that little bit of information it is very hard to determine if you would qualify for a loan modification. Based on the fact that you home is not included in the BK yes you should qualify for a home loan modification. Being as though you are not late on your mortgage payments you should still be able to qualify for a loan modification if you have a verifiable hardship and you are paying more than 31% of your gross monthly income on your mortgage payments.

Q: my co-borrower doesn't want to sign the final loan modification docs, but he signed a quitclaim deed. Is still his signature required on final docs with Fannie Mae mod and BOA the servicer?

Posted By: ahsan on Dec 14, 2011 12:17AM

A: That is a great question and I think you should consult with bank of america to find out for sure.

Q: I just received loan modificaton approval n signed. Sent back immediately. My first paymemt is due feb 1st. Does that mean i dont have to send my december n january payments. ??? Please help

Posted By: FFloresarcee on Dec 03, 2011 09:19PM

A: Typically that is correct. However you should always call your mortgage company and make sure. Get their answer in writing! The last thing you want to do is jeopardize your modification.

Q: My ex-wife completed a HAMP loan modificaion which changed the terms of the origingal loan with out getting my signature. Do I have any recourse for the changes the lender made to the note and deed of trust?

Posted By: Pepper on Nov 18, 2011 06:50PM

A: Probably not because the terms of your loan were affected in a positive manner and it probably didn't negatively affect you. However if you feel strongly that you have been wronged I would consult a local attorney to discuss your case with them.

Q: I did a loan modification a year ago , my interest was reduced and not the principal. I am now seperated and can no longer afford payments. can i principal reduction modifacation.

Posted By: joey06 on Nov 17, 2011 04:27PM

A: Unfortunately principal reductions are very scarce. You can always apply again and see what your lender says now that you have a new hardship. For help with your loan modification please call 866-437-9061 or fill out a form on this site.

I live in California.

Posted By: Bugs on Nov 11, 2011 05:26PM

A: It shouldn't affect your modification, however you should call your representative at Bank of America and ask them to be certain.
