Obama Administration Introduces
Monthly Housing Scorecard

Impact of Administration Efforts Seen in SIGNS OF House Price Stabilization and Increased Affordability

WASHINGTON – The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the U.S. Department of the Treasury today introduced a monthly scorecard on the nation’s housing market.  Each month, the scorecard will incorporate key housing market indicators and highlight the impact of the Administration’s unprecedented housing recovery efforts, including assistance to homeowners through the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) and the Home Affordable Modification Program (HAMP). This scorecard contains key data on the health of the housing market including:

* After 30 straight months of decline and an expectation of continued nearly 14 percent decline, home prices leveled off in the past year and expectations have adjusted upward

* Mortgages are more affordable: due to historically low interest rates, more than 6 million homeowners have refinanced, saving an estimated $150 per month on average and more than $11 billion in total. And more than 2.5 million families have purchased a home using the First-Time Homebuyer Tax Credit.

* Servicers report that the number of homeowners receiving restructured mortgages since April 2009 has increased to 2.8 million. Additionally, nearly half of homeowners unable to enter a HAMP permanent modification enter an alternative modification with their servicer, and fewer than 10 percent of cancelled trials move to foreclosure sale.

* However, the foreclosure prevention initiatives are not intended to help all borrowers and the market will continue to adjust for some time.  The supply of homes on and off market remains near all-time highs.  It will take time to work though this large inventory.

OBAMA ADMINISTRATION RELEASES NEW DATA

Homeowners in modifications are saving an average of over $550 per month.

As of December 10th, 728,000 modifications are under way across the country, the program is on track to meet its goals over the next several years. Modifications are providing real benefits to homeowners.

“As this report illustrates, struggling homeowners across the country continue to receive immediate relief in the form of reduced monthly payments and a second chance to stay in their homes,” said Chief of Treasury’s Homeownership Preservation Office (HPO) Phyllis Caldwell. “Our focus now is on working with servicers, borrowers and organizations to get as many of those eligible homeowners as possible into permanent modifications.”

If you are unable to make your mortgage payment, we always recommend:

1. Don’t ignore the problem. Contact a professional.  The further behind you get on your payments, the harder it will be to modify your loan.
2. Have a home loan counselor contact your lender as soon as you realize that you have a problem.
3. Lenders do not want to take your house. There are government options to help borrowers through difficult financial times.
4. Open and respond to all mail from your lender or bring it to expert counsel for help.

The first notices you receive will have information about foreclosure prevention options.  Then later mail may include important notice of pending legal action.  Your failure to open the mail is NOT be an excuse in foreclosure court. Contact Forensic Loan Audit at 866 910 706 or email us at am@ioannoulaw.com

Recent reports show that the housing market is showing encouraging signs of strength in recent months.  However, analysts also caution that the market is mostly responding to government stimulus measures.  It’s clear that this federal aid is saving many Americans from loosing their homes and that many more homeowners can benefit from this program.

The Federal Reserve said it will soon stop purchasing home mortgages after accumulating an unprecedented $1.25 trillion in mortgage debt since January. However, Congress’ decision to extend the aid will keep the market “reasonably stable” for another few months. We know that homeowners are still under intense pressure and need to act quickly.
Forensic Loan Audit recommends contacting a home loan modification expert as soon as possible. If you would like to speak with a loan professional call 866 910 7065 or email us at am@ioannoulaw.com

“Mr. President: What can be done to assist homeowners paying their mortgages but facing significant losses in equity? As a category, it is difficult for these responsible people to refinance into the more favorable mortgages now available.”
Helen Kathryn, Seattle, WA

The Making Home Affordable Refinance Program is designed specifically to help those whose home values may have fallen relative to their mortgage values.  The program is available to homeowners with a first loan, owned or guaranteed by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, that is 80-105% of the value of the home.

We’re focused on getting as many families as possible who are struggling with their mortgages into a mortgage that they can afford.  The Home Affordable Modification Program gets the borrower’s interest rates and monthly payments down to a level they can afford in a way that is most cost effective for taxpayers.  That will keep millions from being foreclosed on.  Our plan permits lenders to get to a level of affordability in a variety of ways, including reducing interest rates, extending terms, or writing down principal.  In addition, we have incorporated principal write downs into our incentive structure in a productive way – success payments to homeowners are available to help pay down principal more quickly.

The Administration on April 28 announced the MHA Second Lien Program and incorporation of Hope for Homeowners, a program designed specifically to help underwater borrowers, into the Making Home Affordable Program.  The Administration is strongly supporting legislation to improve Hope for Homeowners so that it can reach more borrowers, and help to increase the equity those homeowners own in their homes.

The new Obama Loan Modification Program can be a lifesaver for many homeowners. However, knowing how the program works, learning the ins-and-outs and the associated requirements can be a frustrating experience.

As an example, if you are not up to date as per MBA calculation at the end of your trial period, the foreclosure process will continue with the selling of your home. This isn’t something you want to manage on your own, because the risks are too high. A good first step is to contact a professional for FREE assistance. After the consultation, if they have found errors in your loan paperwork or deem your case has hardship potential, the consultants will refer you to a trusted adviser or legal counsel.
