And more foreclosure. The banks, The US Seate, Congress, President Obama and others have

Come to the conclusion that we have got to end this downward spiral in foreclosures

And help families keep their homes or else refinance. Because of the meltdown in the

Financial system and falling house values lenders are looking for solutions to this problem .The most successful method used to combat this

Is a loan modification.



What is a loan modification?

A loan modification is a amendment to the loan contract which is agreed to by

The lender and the homeowner. The lender modifies the existing loan(s) in

Order to work with the homeowner because of hardship. The reason is to


Help make the loan(s) more within your means. Ordinarily it is in the form of a rate

Reduction, fixing the rate for a certain duration of time, or term extension.

In the past, this was only used when a borrower was delinquent and suffered

A hardship such as employment loss, divorse, illness, and so on.



At this time borrowers can get modifications or freezes from their lender for

Unaffordable rate adjustments on variable rate mortgages. The earlier

The homeowner addresses the issue, the better the likelihood are of negotiating

A fixed rate and a payment that is controllable.



A key part that is necessary in each loan modification is the existence

Of a financial hardship for the borrower. The hardship can be temporary


In nature or permanent, but the borrower has got to be able to prove the hardship.



The most effective method is to use a forensic loan audit along with the

Use of personal hardship. A Forensic Loan Audit is audit of the loan and it's terms.The audit's#1 goal is to determine

Whether there were violations of federal and state law. If these violations

Are found, then the client's file has added strength during the loan

Modification process. Many folks to have taken control of their mortgage
