MIAMI DADE LOAN MODIFICATION

 FORECLOSURE ATTORNEYS

While the Making Home Affordable Program may have fizzled out on December 31, 2016, there is a new loan modification program, the FLEX Modification or Flex  Loan Modification, being offered by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.   Effective as of February 1, 2017 but not being considered until May 1, 2017, this new program was rolled out by Fannie Mae  and Freddie Mac, to help those that are in default on their mortgage or in imminent default (not yet behind but about to be).

While the Flex Modification is somewhere between the Freddie Mac Standard and Streamlined Modifications, there are a few significant changes worth noting:

  • Can be applied to all mortgage loan delinquencies
  • The program will offer additional payment relieve allowing forbearance of principal up to an 80% mark to market loan to value ration for eligible borrowers.
  • For borrowers more than 90 days past due on their mortgages, the  program targets a 20% payment reduction and requires no borrower documentation.

The new Flex Modification will replace the current Fannie Mae Standard and Streamlined loan modifications on or after October 1, 2017, meaning those programs will no longer be available.

Evaluation and qualification for this new loan modifications program still is key.  Therefore, if you are facing a mortgage foreclosure due to inability to pay or a mortgage loan default, it is important to speak to a knowledgeable attorney who can determine  your eligibility and qualifications. You certainly do not want to waste time thinking you qualify, risk foreclosure, only to be turned down by your lender.
