  1. Homeowners who are facing difficulty in making their mortgage payments can gain immense benefits from a loan modification, New York, which is known to lower monthly payments and make them more affordable, which is accomplished by lowering the interest rate, extending the term of the loan, reducing the principal balance, and/or adding unpaid interest to the principal balance.

  2. At the same time, it may not turn out to be a good solution, as the bank may not offer a good deal with you ending up owing the lender far more than the house is really worth. It is important to understand the pros and cons before deciding if a loan modification is really the best option for you.

  3. The other alternative that can help you avoid foreclosure is a short sale. If you are considering a loan modification over a short sale, make your decision depending on your financial situation, the willingness of the bank, and your desire to keep your house.

  4. Banks sometimes are unwilling to give loan modifications, but they may contemplate working with you rather than foreclose and take possession of your house. So be wary of banks that are infamous for being notoriously difficult to work with in a loan modification.

  5. Understand the benefits of a loan modification: • You would avoid foreclosure and remain in your home • If you are behind on payments, get to resolve your delinquency status • You may be able to reduce your monthly payments so they are more affordable

  6. You would suffer less damage to your credit than if the bank foreclosed on your house • If you have an ARM with an increasing interest rate and a balloon payment at the end, you may be able to change it to a Fixed-Rate mortgage

  7. Not only the advantages, but also you must consider the disadvantages before you apply for a loan modification. Don’t lose heart if the loan modification offered by the bank is a bad deal, as there are other options you can resort to avoid foreclosure and walk away debt free such as a short sale.

  8. Summing everything up, loan modifications are most common for secured loans, such as mortgages that can help ease the financial pressure by lowering your monthly payments and stopping collection activity. But it is important to consider all the angles before you jump at the chance.
