On Thursday the House of Representative passed the Home Mortgage Bill to provide limited relief to the defaulted homeowners. The main provision of this bill is that FHA will guarantee up to $300 in refinanced home loan.
Homeowner who have taken sub-prime mortgage and ARM but still shows now the ability to pay the refinanced loan will have reduced principal and converted their mortgage to 30 year FRM. This will help them to reduce monthly mortgage payments and avoid foreclosure.

Here it is shown how you are being cheated when they actually saying that they are helping you out. You loose you home, your equity and everything. So talk to your lender if you have any problem regarding your mortgage problem and avoid such the third party mortgage frauds.
Would love to have your comments on it.

My Son MUST move next month due to he is Military. He has had his home on the market for over 6 months and NO offers. He has already signed a lease on a apartment at his new location. Once he moves,he will not be able to make the mortgage payment on the home...(well he can for about 2 months and exhaust his savings).
Two dozen or so people have looked at the home buy none have made a offer. The mortgage balance is 405K and the local agents are telling him the home is only worth 340-350K.......I`m not so sure if BofA would even consider a short sale.
So whats the next move????
I sugested to him to ask the bank for a forbearance until he can find a buyer. If not, I quess a Deed in Leiu is next????
His credit score is near 800 and never late on payments.
Renting it out will due no good, the average rent payment is around 1000.00 less than his mortgage payment,not including managment fees.
He is in a real crappy deal.....40 year loan....10 year fixed.....30 year ARM.......first ten years intres only..........Sheesh

Have you looked in the newspaper and seen an incredibly amazing mortgage rate that made your last mortgage rate look pitiful? Maybe this was even a week after you signed for what you thought was the best rate available. And possibly it was. When lenders advertise their best mortgage rates, these figures usually are the absolute best rate they can give to the very best customer. Does that mean you are not a good customer?

You may have seen the recent television commercials with "The Golden Girls" star, Rue McClanahan, which advertises reverse mortgages. What are these loans? Who is eligible? And what are the risks involved?

Interest rates affect almost every part of our lives, and one of the biggest things affected by rising rates is the mortgage. The type of mortgage you take out will determine which interest rate you pay, which can be high or low depending on the base rate at the time.

When you read the news about mortgages, or watch the news, you are told how difficult it is to get a mortgage these days. Times have changed. You can no longer state your income, even if it is not true, and get a mortgage. However, if you need to refinance or purchase a home, you can still get a high quality loan. An FHA loan is the perfect solution if your credit is good but not great, and the limits have changed so most peoples loan needs can now be satisfied.

A mortgage refers to a type of loan taken out by an individual that is used to pay for a property. The property is then used as security against repayments on the loan. A mortgage is used to buy property and is paid back in installments.
