Loan Modification Green Road Sign with dramatic clouds and sky. If your amortizing HELOC which originated right before the bubble burst, has now shot up to a higher than manageable interest rate, you have options.  A HELOC, or Home Equity Line of Credit are loans that are given against the property, or mortgage, which allow homeowners to cash out or obtain cash from the bank.  HELOC’s were very popular during the real estate boom in South Florida, as property values shot up, providing for significant equity in the home.  Lenders asked very few questions when giving these lines of credits, often not even verifying employment, and often soliciting the borrowers themselves.

At the beginning the HELOC’s have very low interest rates, or are interest only, causing only a $200 or $250.00 dent in the borrowers pocketbook. But as the amortizing HELOC’s now reach maturity or rate adjustments, homeowners are finding themselves unable to make the payments.

That’s where we come in.

If the home is upside down with the balance of the first mortgage, then we may be able to successfully settle the second and have it removed from the property.  Or, in the alternative, modifications can be made with respect to the HELOC’
