How To Lower Your Mortgage Payment Without A Refi
Yes, You Can Beat The System!
A lot of people in today’s lending market are stuck. They locked in their interest rate when rates were higher. Now, they are barred from refinancing because they are upside down on their house. Whenever they apply for a new loan, the first thing the lender says is, “The current property value is less than what you owe. We can’t lend you enough money to pay off your old lender.” Do they have any options?
Discover how other sellers successfully did a short sale to avoid foreclosure by clicking here. Their best option is probably a loan modification. Their lender is more than likely to work with them since their home dropped in value.
They may have to stop making payments before their lender will approve a loan modification. But, some lenders are even modifying loans that are current.
Some Bloomfield homeowners are stuck with a loan where the payments are going to gradually increase over time. Their current interest rate is 6%. But, it is going to increase by 1% a year until it hits 9.5%.
They can afford the home at the current interest rate. But once it goes higher, they will have to do something. Why not do it now? Take the onetime credit hit and lock in a reasonable interest rate. Some people have been able to get their interest rates on jumbo loans reduced to between 4% and 5%.
Many loan modifications will even reduce your interest rate as low as 2% for 5 years. But, stick to your guns and lock in a reasonable rate for the remainder of the loan. You don’t want to have to apply for another loan mod in 5 years. (Most people don’t see how interest rates could possibly go any lower.)
