Lower your home payments with loan modifications
Foreclosure rates are at an all-time high in the US right now. Stories of houses being abandoned by their owners and turned back over to the bank are all too common. The funny thing is that the banks don't even want the houses back, as they aren't in the real estate business; they're in the business of banking. This is an important fact to keep in mind if you happen to be in a place where you can't afford to pay for your mortgage anymore. Whether you're in financial distress in general, unable to keep up with your adjustable rate mortgage or some other bind, there ARE programs out there that will help you restructure your current loan and allow you to keep your house and get your loan back in order.
Loss Mitigation, Loan Modification and Home Loan workout programs are three options you have. Many companies offer one or all of the programs just mentioned, but before signing up with any company, check them out first! Make sure they are reputable. Financial relief is possible with a successful program offered by the right company.
Here is a practical example of this type of program in action: Borrower owes $400,000 at 8% and the home is worth $340,000. After foreclosing, bank must re-list the property or sell at auction. Either method can end up costing an additional $60,000 or more in losses.
Going off the example above, the bank will wind up losing at least $120,000. However, if the bank were to accept a modified loan and lowering the interest rate to a 30 year fixed term loan at 5.25%, the bank will net nearly $400,000 in future interest payments. It's a definite win/win situation!
It's best to work with an attorney to structure a loan modification, as their default rate is under 5%. Homeowners that go it on their own often default at least 50% of the time. Another perk is that banks prefer to work with attorneys.
More often than not, if an attorney structures a loan modification for you and it doesn't work out, their fee is refundable. You're likely to see incredible results from restructured loans! Loan principal reductions, interest rate reductions, extended payment terms and lower monthly payments are all feasible when you modify you loan.
