How does a loan modification work> Pacific One Lending is telling me that there is no upfront fee> how is this possible>

It is illegal to charge upfront fees to obtain a loan modification. Only about 1% of homeowners are receiving loan modifications, so your best bet is to higher an attorney. The homeowner needs to have had some sort of hardship, or prove fraud in orginating your mortgage. One also needs income to support the new mortgage. It can take as little as one month to a year or more. Sometimes you have to go through a trial period before the actual loan modification kicks in to prove to the lender that you will not default on your new loan. Every situation is different. You can call your bank and request a loan modification package. Call 1.800.826.1929 for more info at Foreclosure Prevention Institute. [img]http://ForeclosurePreventionInstitute.com[/img]


citimortgage has the second loan on my house, I have it up for sale. At closing I will still owe Citi approx. 30,000 is there a way I could

Susan, If your 1st and 2nd mortgage are with the same lender, it may be easier to negotiate with your bank for a short sale. The 2nd mortgage is in effect forgiven or the bank takes less than what is owed on the 2nd. You may receive a 1099 for the difference owed.


im renting the house that im in and the heater will not lite so what do i do

Call the landlord or owner. Have them fix the problem unless you have a lease or agreement that says otherwise. In that case you may want to hire someone to help you, but make sure the landlord agrees if you expect to be reimbursed for the cost. It's probably a simple fix, but of course if you smell gas leaking call the Gas Company. ForeclosurePreventionInstitute.com

We rent a private home. What are our landlords legal responsibilities to us?

Depends on one type of lease you have contracted and how well you negotiated with the owner. If you have a gross lease, then the landlord pays property taxes, insurance, and usually major improvements. It helps to have a good owner to tenant relationship. ForeclosurePreventionInstitute.com

Mortgage should be 15 years or 30 years?

I too encourage 15 year mortgages to save money in the long run. A 30 year mortgage was an animal created to lure consumers in with lower monthly mortgage payments. It could be used as a cushion for hard times and one could accelerate payments and treat it as a 15 year mortgage if disciplined.


How can you tell up front that you're dealing with a legitimate massage therapist?

Read my story. I had severe back and shoulder pain and had massage therapy and my pain floated away.... I found out a superb massage therapy company. One of the best kept secrets in America. michiganloanhomeinc.com [img]C:\Users\User\Pictures\Copyxofxfpilogo[1].gif[/img]

how to reposses real estate?

To reposses a home requires one to follow the legal process of foreclosure or possibly a quit claim and/or eviction. You need to show the court that you have given the homeowner or the renter notice of default and time to bring the default current. Providing a forbearance agreement or even modifying the terms shows good faith. If having to foreclose, then you must give legal notice and post it in the legal news or newspaper for a period of time depending upon the State's foreclosure requirements. Sometimes, the homeowner or renter is willing to move or walk away with a quit claim and/or a little cash in his/her pocket. In Michigan, it may take 6 to 12 months or more to foreclose on a homeowner, and then a month or more to evict the homeowner. So why not offer cash for keys? Note: If the home is abandoned then it will take less time. It helps to have an attorney involved, but one can do it if you follow the legal process. In regards to rental property, one must file an eviction notice and go to court if necessary. ForeclosurePreventionInstitute.com

I am trying to get a home equity loan. My credit is terrible. I have credit card bills in laywers hands that I am trying to pay off and I wo

In this economy, trying to obtain a home equity loan with bad credit won't happen. Banks want people with 730 or better credit scores. The subprime market disappeared. If you have a home that appraises for say $90,000 then you might find a hard money lender to lend you up to $40,000 dollars. However, be prepared to pay a very high interest rate and probably $10,000 or more in closing costs. Another alternative is to consider debt settlement to settle your credit card debt. Within 5 years or less you could become debt free and furthermore you will own your home. You are totally debt free. -- no mortgage or unsecured debt. Your credit can be repaired. Why risk your home -- learn more about debt settlement. Call 1.800.826.1929 ForeclosurePreventionInstitute, LLC. ForeclosurePreventionInstitute.net

what is a mortgage loan modifacation? and what is a fore bearance?

A mortgage loan modification modifies an existing loan. The loan is restructured usually with a lower interest rate and differing terms such as a fixed rate versus a variable rate. To qualify the homeowner must show a "true" hardship and have the means for repaying the newly structured loan; and the lender or private investor holding the note must be willing to modify the loan. A forbearance is an act by which the creditor waits for payment of debt due him by the debtor after it becomes due. With mortgages, the lender may possibly spread the payments due over a specific time period. Often times, the mortgage payment is increased to a degree to allow the homeowner to "catch" up. Sometimes, a forbearance plan will lead into a loan modification if the homeowner can stick with the forbearance plan and make timely monthly mortgage payments. The consumer needs to know that a large number of homeowners with forbearance plans default; and that it is difficult to get lenders to modify mortgages. New reforms to allow bankruptcy judges to be given the power to modify loans did not happen. The best way to force a lender to modify a loan is through a forensic audit.

How do we SPEND our way out of bankruptcy?

The man on the street doesn't. But the Feds can just keep printing money until the dollar has no value. The trillion dollar debt is just a number to them...means nothing. Our money is their money.


Can I reduce or eliminate interest charges on my credit card?

Yes, one can reduce interest rates if one has good credit. Also, if when one has bad credit, interest rates on unsecured debt can be reduced or eliminated in a negotiated settlement.
