Home Affordable Modification Program
Under the Home Affordable Modification Program (HAMP) mortgage lenders were told to accelerate the review process for loan modifications. Evidently, the applications submitted by struggling homeowners were not being processed in a timely enough manner. It seems these applications were just sitting collecting dust while the threat of foreclosure loomed.
According to the Home Affordable Modification Program:
Mortgage lenders have to send confirmation in writing that they received your loan modification request.
Mortgage lenders have to approve or reject your loan modification request within 30 days of receiving your application.
If a mortgage lender denies your application, they have to offer another option to help you avoid the foreclosure process.
Now with the Home Affordable Modification Program getting support with loan modification is much easier. The processing time is much faster.
However, some homeowners have experienced the opposite. There have been instances in which homeowners actually qualified for loan modification but the mortgage lenders took too long to look at the applications. In these cases the homes went into foreclosure because the applications were not approved in time to stop foreclosure.
Many other home owners have said that their banks are not providing any type of loan modification assistance at all.
