How Atlanta Homeowners Can Benefit From the New Home Loan Programs

The Federal Making Home Affordable Program has created a number of home loan programs that will help keep Atlanta families in their homes, stabilize Atlanta's communities and assist Atlanta homebuyers during these troubled times. Under these new home loan plans, Atlanta homeowners can:

• Refinance their mortgage to a new, lower, fixed interest rate.
• Refinance even with declining property values.
• Refinance with lower income and asset verification requirements.
• Refinance Multiple Investment Properties.

Each of the above possibilities require that Atlanta Homeowners be current on their existing home loans. However, for those Atlanta families that have already fallen into hard times and are behind on, going to be behind on, or have an impending ARM adjustment/balloon payment with, their existing home loans can;

• Obtain a modification on your mortgage that can potentially reduce your monthly payment, or offer other alternatives that can help you keep your home.

Finally, for those Atlanta families that are looking to purchase their first new home, or even upgrade their current home, programs are available for them to;

• Purchase beautiful Atlanta homes with credit scores as low as 580
• Purchase their new dream home with no out-of-pocket money down

The U.S. Treasury, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have developed these programs in an effort to help both troubled and current Atlanta borrowers, to get back on track and improve their current financial situations.

So How Do They Work? Refinance

For Atlanta Homeowners that are current on their mortgage payments but unable to refinance because their home value has decreased, you may be able to refinance to a lower rate, or a lower-risk, loan through the refinance solution that is part of this program. Examples of how the refinance program can help Atlanta Homeowners:

• Fixed-rate mortgage to fixed-rate mortgage
• Adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) to fixed-rate mortgage
• Super conforming fixed-rate mortgage to super conforming fixed-rate mortgage

Loan Modification

For Atlanta homeowners who are behind in their mortgage payments, in the foreclosure process, or are current on their payments but have recently experienced a significant hardship, you may be able to modify your loan to a lower rate through the Loan Modification Program. Significant hardships are set as circumstances that may make it difficult for you to pay your mortgage going forward.

Purchase

For Atlanta area families and individuals that are in search of a loan for their new dream home, financing and programs are available to help them purchase;

• Bank owned foreclosures at below market value
• With 580 credit scores
• With no, or little, money down
• With down payment assistance
