Many people who are facing financial difficulties due to high mortgage payments made have been asking themselves if they can qualify for the affordable home refinancing program as proposed by President Obama. If you think you might qualify or want to know if you can qualify; first ask yourself these few questions:
- Do you personally own a single-family home, condo, or townhouse?
- Is your current home loan backed or guaranteed by one of the two finance providers recently supported by the government (Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae)?
- As of right now, have you successfully paid your mortgage payments for the past 12 months on time and in full (this means at least a minimum payment being met each month)?
- Finally, did your home's market value remain the same or depreciate since you purchased it?
If you can answer yes to all of these questions will, most likely, qualify for the refinancing option and be able to receive assistance by applying for a new loan at a lower interest rates. This can be particularly helpful in today's economy, where financial instability is quite common. Successfully getting a lower interest rate can mean the difference between keeping your home and having a bank foreclosure on it. In the past few years, just before the recent large recession, many people were approved for home loans that may not otherwise have been approved. This has led to a large increase in defaulting loan payments. In recent days, the government support of the affordable refinancing option has helped encourage banks to the look at the previous financing schemes in order to provide customers with better deals so that both the bank and the homeowner can benefit.
