What is a Mortgage
Mitigation?
A mortgage mitigation is
the procedure whereby a mortgage’s payment plan is changed, due to the hardship
of the borrower. This may
include changes to the rate, the term and the monthly payment amounts.
In rare cases, the principal amount may be reduced.
This process is handled
through the lender’s Loss Mitigation Department.
Why Would a Lender
Agree to Modify Someone’s Mortgage?
It’s simple.
Foreclosures are at an all time high. Banks cannot afford to own many
foreclosed home assets. Banks are in the business of
lending money, not owning
property. When they own property, their money is locked up and they can't
lend it out, so banks lose money on foreclosed homes in almost every case.
With this in mind, now is a great time to request a mortgage mitigation for
your clients, if they have a verifiable hardship that could otherwise lead
them into a foreclosure situation, and if they wish to stay in the home. The
mortgage mitigation option saves the homeowner’s home from foreclosure,
helping both the homeowner and the bank.
How Else Does the
Homeowner Benefit?
For the homeowner who
wishes to keep their home, the Mortgage Mitigation is the solution, regardless
of their current equity or credit situation.
Different than the short sale, the
homeowner stays in the home.
Ultimately, the result of a Mortgage Mitigation is the borrower more easily
and consistently makes their mortgage payments.
This allows them to stay in their home and preserve the American
Dream for themselves and their families, avoiding what has been dubbed, the
‘American Nightmare’ of losing their home to foreclosure.
Furthermore, a Mortgage
Mitigation will not contribute to the decline of the local housing market,
takes less time and effort than a short sale and is better for the
homeowner’s credit. In many
cases, a Mortgage Mitigation can close in less than 30 days, assuming the
system has been followed as we present in this guide, and the homeowner
qualifies.
What are the
Standard Fees a Homeowner can Expect to pay When They Hire a Mortgage
Mitigation Specialist?
Typically, the
homeowner will pay a fee for this service that is equal to one mortgage
payment or 1% of the mortgage amount.
There is not a set amount, though fees tend to be either the value of
1 payment, 1%, or less.
Who is a good
candidate for a Mortgage Mitigation?
Any homeowner who is
having difficulty with mortgage payments.
Homeowners who have
recently adjusted mortgages.
ARM's that will reset
in next 75 to 90 days.
Homeowners 30+ Days
late or more on their mortgage.
The amount of
equity in the property (if any), the homeowner’s credit (good or bad), and
mortgage delinquency are not relevant to the process.
What is the
Basic, Step-by-Step Process?

mitigation, or if perhaps they should short sale the home instead.
