Loan Modification Companies Are There Any Good Ones

With the economy the way it is, many families are struggling to keep their homes. One good way to afford your mortgage payment is to get your loan modified. Loan modification companies are a good way to do this, if you choose the right one.

Why choose a loan modification company? Well, first of all, they won't get confused with the terminology your bank uses when talking to them. They are on the same page as your lender and know what needs to be done to get you approved. They also know what a good loan modification is and what a bad one is. Lenders aren't in the business of modifying everyones loans right off the bat and when they offer you one, it usually isn't as good as it can be. A company will know when to reject the offer and when to take it. And finally, you won't have to spend hours on the phone every day trying to get things accomplished with your lender. The company will handle this for you, because you have better things to do with your time, right?

So, what makes a good loan modification company? Well, there are many things to look for, but I'll tell you about one company that has some pretty amazing programs right now. They have all the bases covered...

First of all, they can do "instant" loan modifications with several major lenders. These can be fully completed in a week or less. The lenders include Bank of America, Countrywide, EMC, Wells Fargo and more. If you have one of these lenders, you should contact them for sure. They will gather some quick information, get authorization to speak to your lender and call them up. They will know right away if you are approved, what your interest rate will be and what your payment will be. They can verify this with you as well. So, if you like what you see, you can move forward and get the loan modification done. If not, you can look for an alternative (such as a short sale). There are no risks involved with this program, unlike other companies that charge upfront fees and take months to get you any information.

If you don't have one of these lenders, there are other programs available as well. This company has experts on the HAM program (the Obama mortgage plan) and know how to get you qualified if you are within the "window" or close to it. With this program, you can reduce your monthly payments (taxes included) to 31% of your net monthly income. This is done by reducing the interest rate (as low as 2%), extending the terms (30 year loan to 40 years) and/or reducing the principal. It goes in that order until the cap is reached, so usually lowering the interest rate and extending the terms if necessary will get it there, balance reductions are rare. The whole point is to lower your payments so you can afford to stay in your home, so I wouldn't worry too much about reducing your balance! A 2% rate is amazing.
