A loan modification is a change that is permanent in one or more than of the original loan
terms on the original mortgage, which allows reinstatement of the loan to stop foreclosure.
The legal departments of most lenders usually are the ones that make the decisions on whether
or not to grant a loan modification, therefore, it is highly suggested that you use legal council
experienced in loan modification procedures. Loan modifications can help borrowers achieve one or more of the many following items:
- Lower a current interest rate or change an adjustable rate to a fixed rate
- Reduce the current balance and bring past due amounts current
- Extend term of the mortgage
Why would someone use a Loan Modification:
- To bring the loan current
- To adjust the loan terms
Not everyone will qualify for a loan re-modification, and there are many restrictions that
the lender may require, however, it can help many people prevent foreclosure. If you would
