Loanmod Approval

Most banks are currently offering loan modifications in one form or another and many are participating in the Government’s MHA – Making Home Affordable modification program. Also known as the Obama Plan or the HAMP – Home Affordability Modification Program. As many of you already know under the MHA, banks are required to set borrowers up on a 3 month trial plan while they review the account for the MHA permanent modification. What’s should you expect during the trial plan period and why is the trial plan scheduled for 3 months?

The MHA Trial Plan is almost always scheduled for 3 months. All borrowers are set up on a trial plan based on preliminary financial review. The review process depends on the bank. Sometime the review is done in the form an interview, where the borrower calls the bank and provides the bank a breakdown of their income verses their expenses. The bank will then plug in the figures you provided verbally into their system and the system will recommend a trial plan payment for the next 3 months. Or, the system may decline the trial plan if the borrower’s financial do not fall within the MHA guidelines. Other banks will qualify you based on preliminary review of the financial documents they have asked you to fax over. The preliminary review is normally done very fast. Especially, if done verbally. It is possible that you can get set up on the MHA trial plan in the same day, or, within the hour.
