MAKING HOME AFFORDABLE

The federal government has new options for homeowners: 
Refinance for those making their mortgage payments but unable to get into more affordable loans because of the decline in property values, and Modification for those struggling with an income loss or payment increase (including those facing foreclosure).   These programs offer incentives to homeowners, investors, and mortgage servicers to negotiate realistic loans that improve homeowners' ability to pay their mortgages on a sustainable basis.  Click on http://www.financialstability.gov/makinghomeaffordable/  to find out if you are eligible and to gather your income and housing expense information to talk with your mortgage servicer.
