What is a loan modification?
|
As of December 2008, loan modification is the quickest, fairest, and
most mutually effective way for homeowners and banks to prevent
foreclosure. Banks use loan modification to reduce interest rates, loan
balance and/or extend the term. By reducing the monthly payment,
homeowners keep their house and resume paying a reduced monthly payment
and the bank avoids taking back a house they cannot afford. In 2009, we
expect 700 million homeowners to use loan modification to save their
homes. Banks will make loan modification the number one banking strategy
to keep them solvent.
Why should an professional be involved with my loan modification?
Knowledge of the law along with proven expertise is what is needed for
successful loan modification. This can only be achieved with an expert,
highly experienced loan modification professional. Six months ago, that
realtor or mortgage broker did not know what loan modification was – let
alone how to help you. The risk of losing your home is too great to put
into the wrong hands
Why would my bank agree to a loan modification?
The bank loses less money lowering your interest rate and mortgage
balance than taking your house back in foreclosure. Let’s do the math on
a $200,000 mortgage. The bank has two choices.
* OPTION #1 - Getting 40¢ on the dollar reselling your house – $80,000
net to the bank - $120,000 loss to the bank. Plus they are required to
escrow a foreclosure penalty of six times the loan amount totaling
$1,200,000. That money goes into a vault and collects dust – not
interest - losing interest and profits every day until that foreclosed
home is sold.
* OPTION #2 - Knocking 40% off your interest and principle.
You do not need a calculator to figure out the best option.

is highly trained to deal with all types of loans and lenders. We can

particular loan: 800-709-4942.
I have spoken to my bank and they refused to help. Is there still a
solution?
Yes. Many homeowners have faced this exact situation. You would not be
the first person to get nowhere with their lender only to be approved
for a 35% loan modification. It all comes down to the team you have
behind you.
I am current on my mortgage, can I still qualify?
Yes. Due to extenuating factors affecting you financially, you may be qualified.
Banks do not require your being behind in payments.
What is Predatory Lending?
PREDATORY LENDING is a term that refers to various illegal and immoral
activities many lenders engage in. These practices are a major cause of
foreclosures, poor credit and unmanageable financial burdens. Your loan
may have been unlawful, and you may be entitled to substantial damages
whether or not you are currently in foreclosure. The penalties for
failure to comply with the TRUTH IN LENDING ACT can be substantial. IF
you are in foreclosure, the Truth in Lending Act can stop the
foreclosure process immediately. If you are a victim, then don't be
preyed upon twice and let them take your home. Let us help you fight for
your rights. Predatory lending is a hot topic in the news and there is
good reason why. Lenders and brokers have spent the last few years
taking advantage of homeowners by providing teaser rates and pay option
loans. The lenders and brokers knew these loans were too good to be true
and the borrowers were not told the truth. Our real estate professionals and
trained personnel are skilled at spotting predatory practices in your
paperwork and use this when negotiating on your behalf.

At LoanAll.com, we make it priority number one to earn your trust –

your home within 24-48 hours. We want you to feel totally comfortable

Caseload Limits
Most loan modification companies are focused on gaining as many cases as
they can. This works for their best interest, but unfortunately, not for
yours. The loan modification process is extremely time sensitive and
backlogs, delays, and slow response can greatly jeopardize the outcome.
That’s why LoanAll.com maintains a small caseload to team ratio to
ensure that all communications and initiatives are clear, concise, and
timely when it really counts.
Are you saying that I should not make my mortgage payment?
No. Missing mortgage payments will negatively impact your credit score and your ability to obtain financing in the future. If you are already behind on your payments it DOES NOT HURT our ability to negotiate a successful loan modification settlement. Professionally, we do not recommend that clients intentionally damage their credit score to obtain a loan modification. However, the farther you are behind in payments the stronger your case for modification with your lending institution. Typically banks give priority to cases that are closest to foreclosure.
More information
The most common loan modifications are lowering the interest rate,
reducing the principal balance, 'fixing' adjustable interest rates,
forgiveness of payment defaults & Fees, or any combination of these. A loan
modification can help home owners who can't refinance or afford their
current mortgage payments. Getting an approved loan modification for
troubled home loans can help stop the foreclosure process.
A loan modification with LoanAll.com may offer a more favorable loan
modification agreement than your mortgage lender will offer you directly.
With so many home loans adjusting to higher payments a loan workout with the
LoanAll.com, a Loan Modification, can modify mortgage loan terms fast and
effectively. If you are already behind in your mortgage payments this may
help stop the foreclosure process and help you avoid foreclosure.
A loan workout needs to perform for both parties; your lender does not want
your home and to go through the foreclosure process. However, they may not
want to accept your partial payment and threaten foreclosure if you are late
or in default. We can offer free foreclosure help and advice to homeowners
that want to keep their home. Please use our short form above to receive a
free foreclosure assistance consultation. Our consultation is FREE.
A loan modification re-structures the terms of your mortgage to make your

Mortgage Loan Modification
A good mortgage loan modification can allow you to stay in your home if it
results in a payment package that is affordable for the long run. Many new
mortgage loan modifications are re-defaulting within 6 months of receiving
their new modified terms. This means that most modifications are not being
modified to a degree that is affordable on an ongoing basis. This is mainly
due to homeowners that do not have legal representation, and are unable to
properly present their situation to their lenders in order to get an
adequate loan modification. Our legal team fights to get you the best
possible mortgage loan modification with a low monthly payment, affordable
for the long term.
Home Loan Modification
Fighting for a home loan modification is much like going to court. You may
think you are saving money by representing yourself, or you can invest in
professional representation and get the best results possible. The loan
modifier process can be complicated and time consuming, but with a capable
loan modification professional, legal team, and professional negotiators, you
can be assured of a successful outcome. Don't miss your portion of the
mortgage bailout money.
Loss Mitigation
Loss Mitigation is one of several processes designed to minimize the damage
caused by defaulting mortgage loans. Often backed by an professional or firm, it
involves negotiations between the lender and the borrower that binds them to
new, more manageable terms. These terms are aimed at preventing foreclosure
and lessen the damage incurred by both parties.
