Home Affordable Refinance Plus Program
In order to counteract the domino effect of recent economic crises in the real estate business, Obama administration came up with the so called making home affordable programs, a program that estrange a lot of American from bankruptcy and foreclosure. The most common of these social programs is Obama loan modification which helped a lot of Americans keep up with their monthly payments and thus save the home they were living in.
Loan modification process regards two aspects, both having the same goal – a new mortgage rate, convenient for the borrower and modified to his new financial conditions:
- The first aspect is about a new 2% interest rate that will considerably change the aspect of the past loan.
- The second aspect is that of extending the repayment period and makes the new rate not go beyond 31 % of the total gross income.
Simply as it may seem, these aspect stayed at the bases of getting approved in the HAMP program. It means that if the new interest rate and the maxim 30 years period of repayment wouldn't make your interest rate payable (that 31% rate is considered a fix limit) you'll not go to be admitted into the program. On the other hand, a too much income will automatically reject you from the program, since it has a social aiding purpose for those who really can prove their incapability of repayment.
The profile of those admitted into home affordable modification program is as it follows:
- Mid-class American who recently lost or partially lost his/her job due to economic crisis
- He or she can not afford the monthly payment of the mortgage rate
- His or hers mortgage balance must be below $729,750 and is really living in that house
- The financial behavior in the recent past in a clean one and somehow assures the bank of a future non problematic payments.
- The applier is honest when describing all his or hers financial situations
To be clear, the admittance into HAPM has a trial period of 3 months, a trial period when no mistakes are accepted, a single day delaying will automatically kick someone out of the program. It is bank's interest to lend the money only to potential good borrowers since government will pay them $1000 incentives per year in the first 3 years for every non stained borrower.
