February 4th, 2010 Filed under: Uncategorized — Foreclosure Author
If you are behind on your mortgage payments and you think you are out of options, please think again. You do have the ability to save your home. The Hardship Loan Modification was designed for homeowners just like yourself who may have hit some hard times but are responsible and want to stay in their home. If you follow the application process correctly, you could be negotiating a new mortgage agreement, with dramatically better terms in a matter of days with your lender. The key is to follow the process correctly and make sure the lender receives all of the paperwork they need to review the application. This process is made much easier by connecting with a loan modification specialist who will file all of the paperwork for you.
When you sit down with a loan modification specialist, they will ask for a number of documents to be assembled. Documents like pay stubs, tax returns and bank statements need to filed and sorted in the correct order. The specialist will also ask for a detailed description of your circumstances, for example if you were laid off, what was your last day of work, or for divorce proceedings, when is the matter expected to be resolved.
Once the circumstances have been documented by the loan modification specialist, and all of the requested documents have been turned in to them, they will assemble your modification package and send it in to the lender. At this point, they will then begin negotiations with the lender. Your specialist will advocate on your behalf for interest rate changes (for example, if you have an adjustable rate that just went up dramatically, they will work to get a low, fixed rate) and other changes to make the mortgage more affordable for you going forward.
The specialist may ask for more supporting documentation, make sure you meet all deadlines they give you as their work can lead to dramatically better terms, including in some cases principal balance reductions.
The lender is motivated to make the loan modifications as foreclosure proceedings are very expensive and it makes more sense to the lender to keep you in your home and not go through the process of trying to sell the home. As long as the application is filed with all required paperwork, which your specialist will manage, your chances of success increase.
If you have procrastinated because you thought you did not have options, you now know you do, and it makes sense to act today and contact a loan modification specialist to start the process today. Do not let the foreclosure process take your home away when you have options available to you on the table that you now know about.
