What is a Loan Modification?
A loan modification restructures the terms of a loan, and is typically offered because of a homeowner's long-term inability to make a full mortgage payment. Modification of a loan can apply to the interest rate, the term (length in years) of the loan, and potentially a reduction in the principle balance. In an attempt to maintain homeownership, a loan modification should always be considered whenever there is a chance to avoid foreclosure.

Loan Modification - Advantages
- Stay in your current home.
- Reduction (which could be temporary) in monthly payment.
- Credit damage can be minimized.
Loan Modification - Disadvantages
- Currently over 60% of Loan Modifications re-default, and wind up back in Foreclosure.
- Monthly payments are typically reduced only temporarily, and adjust to higher payments in the future, when loan terms or refinance possibilities may not be as favorable.
- Principle loan amounts and any back payments are typically added to the end on the loan, and can be a balloon payment in the future.
- Many loan modifications increase the term of the loan (up to 40 years), in order to reduce the monthly payments.
- A Deed-In-Lieu or Short Sale may be your best option now, and give you the ability to re-purchase a home within one (1) year, at a lower price, and at a lower interest rate than your current loan, even after your current loan in modified.
- A Deed-In-Lieu or Short Sale may offer you Cash today, to leave your home and relocate to a rental property, and many times the rental property payment is much less than your mortgage payment, even after your loan has been modified.
- Many homeowners did not disclose their actual income (a stated-income loan) on their original loan application, and during the loan modification process, there is the potential that the lender seeks damages for incorrectly stating income on the original loan application when the home was purchased.
