What is a loan modification?

Loan Modification cannot be considered the same thing as a refinance because refinance is when you get a second loan to pay off your first one. When you are doing a loan modification you cannot combine your previous loans. While doing a loan modification we will work with you and your lender to get the terms of your loan modified.

What terms can I change on my mortgage with a loan modification?

Thinking outside the box is not something the banking industry has the potential for. For this reason the terms you can get modified get very limited.

Interest Rate Modification

The thing that the most people want to modify is their interest rate. To reach affordability the servicer will push based on your income.

Loan Term Adjustment Mod

The other way you can decrease the payments is to extend the loan length but this si not the right way as people have noticed them adding payments to the beginning of the loan. If you want to get the loan extended by the length of your missed payments you cannot do that. The company will extend the loan back to its original length of 30 years in most of the cases. We have seen as much as 50 years, but as 30 years is the norm, any extension beyond is generally no more than 40. Beneficiary of the note and the limitations they set completely control this.

Principal Capitalization and Principal Reduction Modification

Principle Capitalization will be when the lender will take any arrears that you owe them which include past due payment, interest, and fees later adding them to the outstanding balance of what is owed. In rare cases that are generally dictated by the amount of perceived equity in the home (or lack there of) the investor on the loan may be willing to take a reduction on the principal owed

Getting Your Forms Submitted To CitiMortgage To Get The Process Going. What is in the CitiMortgage Loan Modification Package?

Getting The Right Value Goes A Long Way.

It will be preferred by the lender to first balance out all the options that are available to the homeowner. One thing that the lender can do is to check whether the value is acceptable. There are many methods to do a valuation and there are some methods in which the valuation is done online. In some cases a value is completed by a real estate agent, In this type, the broker compares the properties in the area. In some of the cases the broker may want access to the home to do an interior valuation. In some cases only a drive by is enough. The person making the valuation will compare properties that are currently listed and which have been sold recently doesn’t matter which type of valuation they are doing. They consider the homes perceived condition, the size of the living space, the size of the lot, how many stories it has and whether or not it has a pool. They will also consider market conditions and how fast homes are selling in the area. There are many factors they take into consideration.

Loan Modification Appraisal Values

The investor will require a valuation in most cases and for this the lender will get a valuation done on a computer called Automatic Valuation Module (AVM). Due to prohibited costs the investor will rarely hore a broker to do a valuation. The investor will in even rarer cases hire an appraiser to get appraisal. The homeowner may be required to pay upfront fees in some of the cases for these services.

Filing Value Disputes and Variances

Mistakes can happen from both the rookies and professional and sometimes they make mistake that a value returns too high or too low, If this happens you may have to deal with a value dispute. Depending on who the investor is or if it’s insured there may be different processes for filing disputes with CitiMortgage or another managing entity.

CitiMortgage’s Net Present Value or NPV Process and Analysis.

This will be the time after the value has returned that the lender will make a decision as to qualify you for the modification or not. Usually before the submission to management there is an auditing process and if approved there is often another auditing process the occurs before an approval letter is issued.

CitiMortgage NPV Counters

NPV stands for Net Present Value. Basically NPV is an algorithm that the investor uses to get the value for their money. This is also not a stable value. It changes from day to day. The investor will look at two seperate homeowners and try to figure out where they can get more profit. As usually the loan modification clients are behind in their payments the investor will have to figure out whether taking the owed amount and extending the loan is even worth it or not. Homeowners have to know that when the numbers don’t add up for the investor that is when they are most likely to get declined.

CitiMortgage NPV Counters

It is an easy thing if you want to counter the CitiMortgage NPV the only thing you have to do is figure out which parts do not make sense and act on those. You should look carefully at each point and try to figure what the ideal output should be. The most typical are incorrect income figures but it could go beyond that to things like the property’s perceived value and even in some cases the consumers credit report.

Three Payment Plan

CitiMortgage will sometimes put you on trial payment plan if you have been approved for the Loan Modification from them. You will not know what the finalized terms will be that they are offering you but the final payment should be inline with what you will be paying for the mortgage at least at the onset of the new plan.

CitiMortgage Modification Complete

There is finalization process before they complete the loan modification process.In case you are currently on the trial payment plan then the new term documents will be sent out somewhere between second and third trial payment. They usually come with a prepaid package to return the documents to the lender. Once the documents are returned and the loan modification goes through the final audits with underwriting the master loan documents are amended to show the new terms of the loan.
