loan modification

A loan modification is basically a change to one or more terms in a mortgage loan. Usually changes will be made to the interest rate, monthly payment amount, the length of the loan, etc. When a person modifies their loan, the terms and conditions of the loan are changed to meet the homeowner’s current financial situation. The purpose of a loan modification is to help people who've fallen behind on their mortgage payments keep their home, since homeowners in these situations often find themselves facing foreclosure. By modifying their home or mortgage loan, homeowners have a much better chance of avoiding foreclosure and keeping their homes.

Ways to modify a loan

There are several ways to modify or change a loan. An experienced Loan Modified relationship manager can advise you of what’s best for your situation, and help you negotiate for:

  • A change in the terms of your loan to make it more affordable
  • A change in your mortgage from an adjustable rate to a fixed rate
  • A change in the length of the loan
  • An extension of payments
  • A waive of accrued interest
  • Bringing your mortgage payments current
  • Reducing your loan balance (Principal Balance Reduction)
  • A forbearance agreement (short-term relief to people experiencing temporary financial problems, usually due to a job loss or medical condition)

Alternate Resolutions

Short sale

If you can no longer afford your property and have tried to sell it only to find that you owe more than the property is currently worth, the owner of your mortgage loan may accept an amount from the sale of your property that is less than the full amount you owe on your loan. In a short sale, you would list and sell the property, in an arm's length transaction, at an approved price with the understanding that the net proceeds from the sale may be less that the total amount due on your loan. You must document the circumstances of your hardship and allow access to the property to assess its condition and value. Upon the successful completion of a short sale, you may also be eligible to receive financial relocation assistance.

Approximately one out of every four distressed homeowners in America owes more on their home than it's worth.

Loan Forbearance

If you are having difficulty making your mortgage payments each month, you may not need a loan modification. In some situations, a lender may agree to a forbearance agreement. A forbearance agreement provides short-term relief to homeowners who are temporarily experiencing financial problems. Under a forbearance agreement, a lender will agree to let a homeowner delay payments for a short period of time until they have recovered financially. It should be stated that a forbearance agreement doesn’t excuse a homeowner from their debt or unpaid mortgage payments. It just allows the homeowner to make their payments at a later date.
