Helping California homeowners keep their homes for over 10 years
“What is a loan modification?”
We help our clients pursue loan modifications. A loan modification is when your mortgage servicer agrees to adjust your mortgage payment to better fit your income & expenses. Typically, someone who obtains a loan modification is able to get a lower interest rate and a lower monthly payment, as can be seen in the below example:
As you can see, a loan modification may result in a lower, more affordable monthly payment.
It is important to note that this is not a guarantee of future results. This is just an example of what a successful hardship-based loan modification might look like. A borrower can potentially obtain a lower interest rate and a longer repayment period, resulting in a lower monthly payment that can fit better into one’s budget.
“How can I qualify?”
Our firm helps clients pursue loan modifications in two different ways: hardship-based & within an active bankruptcy.
Modification Through
Mediation in Bankruptcy
For those in an active bankruptcy, we can represent you in mediation between you & your loan servicer in an attempt to lower your payment to a more manageable amount.
Traditional Hardship-
Based Modification
For those who have experienced a financial hardship, we can represent your situation and document your hardship to the servicer and work to lower your monthly payment.
“What qualifies as a hardship?”
A hardship can be temporary or permanent and is typically something that prevents you from being able to make your mortgage payment. Take a minute to look at the list of examples and think about if any of those hardships apply to your situation. If so, you may be able to pursue a loan modification.
With over 10 years of experience fighting for homeowners, we have produced real, tangible results, and hope to help you too. While we cannot guarantee any results (as no lawyer can), we guarantee that we will fight for you and do our best to keep you in your home.
