Homeowner Affordability and Stability Plan
Making Home Affordable (MHA) refinance and loan modification programs announced on March 4, 2009.
You may qualify for a LOAN MODIFICATION if:
- You own and occupy your home as your primary residence.
- You are either current, at risk of imminent default, or behind in your mortgage payments, or are in foreclosure or bankruptcy.
- The unpaid principal balance of the first mortgage on your primary residence is $729,750 or less (loan limits are higher on owner-occupied multi-unit properties).
- You have verifiable source(s) of income to put towards a mortgage payment each month, even if that income has recently been reduced.
- You can provide copies of your most recent tax returns and will sign an affidavit of financial hardship.
- You have not previously modified your mortgage under the MHA program.
- Note: Mortgages on second homes, vacant homes and investment properties are not eligible for modification under this program.
If you meet the guidelines above, call 1-800-445-6973 to talk to a customer service representative about modifying your mortgage loan.
