Does anyone have information on the modification loans to avoid foreclosure?Hi there,
With that much of a difference between your home’s value and what you owe, you will not be able to refinance. Lenders now are demanding strict Loan to Value ratios (as they call it). In your situation, if your home is worth $350, you would need to owe just $280 to get it refinanced, depending on your credit.
You might be able to negotiate a loan modification. In such instances, the lender lowers your interest rate, which lowers your payments. Early in this housing crisis, some lenders were also lowering your overall debt (principal on the loan). But that is rare.
To qualify, you will need to show that you are in the “sweet spot.” Meaning you make enough to pay the lowered monthly payment, but not too much to afford your current payment. I strong suggest seeking a professional’s help in the negotiations.
