Should you attempt a Loan Modification for your Downey Home?

Should you attempt a Loan Modification for your Downey Home?

In a previous post we discussed the HAFA program and how it can help you with your Downey distressed home.

Now let’s discuss the realities of attempting a loan modification. The Obama Program, or HAMP, was supposed to help millions of homeowners keep their home. Sadly this has not been the case.

Just a few notes before you see the video:

Did you know that if your Downey Home has already received a Notice of Trustee Sale, and it was postponed because you applied for a loan modification for example – the bank can simply sell the home without sending another notice? That’s why you must keep in contact with your bank.

Banks perform a financial analysis to see what makes more financial sense: Loan modification, approve a short sale, or foreclose on the home.  Should you perform a similar analysis for yourself and your Downey Loan?

Let’s see Patty Kelly and what she has to say:

Follow-up: Banks start to sue over balances owed on HELOCS when short selling your Downey home

Will the HELOC weigh your financial life after short sale down?


When short selling your Downey home you must be aware that banks are starting to sue over owed balances on HELOCs. Here we discuss what can be done to prevent this from happening when short selling your Alhambra Home. http://Themortgagespin.com

Summer time is the time to purchase your Downey Home

summertime1

This has been the common feeling among most of us when buying our home right? School is out for the kids, the weather is great, nighttime is not until later. Guess what: You’re right.

You are right that if you feel it’s the right time it will be. It could be November or June. The point is if you are ready, then it IS the right time to buy your Downey home.

So let’s back up your emotional certainty with cold hard logic:

1. The interest rates are STILL at historic lows.
2. Home prices are STILL low.

However at the end you know it’s not about that. It’s about you wanting to buy your Downey home.
