Home Stimulus Plan - Hope For Homeowners

The Home Stimulus Plan contains 75 billion dollars earmarked to help homeowners who are facing foreclosure and the loss of their home. Millions of people who have experienced financial hardship due to circumstances beyond their control will be given a fresh start and an opportunity to save their home.

Are you in a state of distress because you are no longer able to make your monthly mortgage payment? Have you been forced into employment that does not return the income of your former position? You could possibly qualify to apply for a loan modification through this federal plan. If so, you would obtain a lower monthly payment, which would hopefully allow you to be regular in your mortgage.

You could have an interest rate as low as 2%! These loan modifications are actually completely reworked loans with quite favorable terms. Your lender must be approved by the government to participate in this plan, but if they are, they receive $1000.00 for every loan modification that they complete. This gives a desperate homeowner more of a chance at getting assistance than would normally be available.

Banks don't really like to do foreclosures anyway, but in this economy it is even more of an inconvenience due to the slow housing market. Homes that are foreclosed may sit vacant for a long time, producing no income. So, don't assume that your lender will not be receptive to your request for a loan modification.

But, experts in the field counsel that the best way for you to give yourself the most opportunity for success is to get all your application details ironed out before you contact your lender. This program only allows you one application for assistance, so you need to have everything prepared in advance.
