Loan Modification Common Questions and Answers
Many people have been asking what exactly is a loan modification. These are some common questions and answers.
What exactly is a loan modification?:
Loan Modification is a permanent change in one or more of the terms of a mortgagor's loan, allows the loan to be reinstated, and results in a payment the mortgagor can afford.
Question 1: In utilizing the Loan Modification option to bring an asset current, can the mortgagee include all fees and corporate advances?
Answer: Mortgagee Letter 2008-21 states in part: Legal fees and related foreclosure costs for work actually completed and applicable to the current default episode may be capitalized into the modified principal balance.
Question 2: May a mortgagee perform an interior inspection of the property if they have concerns about property condition?
Answer: Yes, the mortgagee may conduct any review it deems necessary to verify that the property has no physical conditions which adversely impact the mortgagor's continued ability to support the modified mortgage payment.
Question 3: Can a mortgagee include late charges in the Loan Modification?
Answer: Mortgagee Letter 2008-21 states that accrued late charges should be waived by the mortgagee at the time of the Loan Modification.

Question 4: When utilizing a Loan Modification option, can a mortgagee capitalize an escrow advance for Homeowner's Association fees?
Answer:
HUD Handbook 4330.1 REV-5, Paragraph 2-1, Section B, Escrow Obligations states: Mortgagees must also escrow funds for those items which, if not paid, would create liens on the property positioned ahead of the FHA-insured mortgage.
Question 5: Is there a new basis interest rate which mortgagees may assess when completing a Loan Modification?
Answer: Yes, Mortgagee Letter 2008-21 states that the new basis interest rate is 200 points above the monthly average yield on U.S. Treasury Securities, adjusted to a constant maturity of 10 years.
Question 6: Will HUD subordinate a Partial Claim, should a mortgagor subsequently default and qualify for a Loan Modification?
Answer: If a mortgagor subsequently defaults and qualifies for a Loan Modification, HUD will subordinate the Partial Claim.
Question 7: Are mortgagees required to perform an escrow analysis when completing a Loan Modification?
Answer: Yes, mortgagees are to perform a retroactive escrow analysis at the time the Loan Modification to ensure that the delinquent payments being capitalized reflect the actual escrow requirements required for those months capitalized.
Question 8: Is the mortgagor eligible for the upfront premium refund at payoff of a modified loan?
Answer: It depends upon when the closing date occurred. For assets closed:
After July 1, 1991 but before January 1, 2001, the 7-year unearned premium refund schedule shown in Mortgagee Letter 1994-1 remains in effect,
On or after January 1, 2001 that are subsequently refinanced, the 5-year refund schedule shown in the attachment of Mortgagee Letter 2000-46 applies, or
On or after December 8, 2004, refunds of upfront MIP are eliminated except, when the mortgagor refinances to another FHA insured mortgage. The refund schedule attached to Mortgagee Letter 2005-03 has been modified to a 3-year period.
Question 9: Can a mortgagee qualify an asset for the Loan Modification option when the mortgagor is unemployed, the spouse is employed, but the spouse name is not on the mortgage?
Answer: Based upon this scenario, the mortgagee should conduct a financial review of the household income and expenses to determine if surplus income is sufficient to meet the new modified mortgage payment, but insufficient to pay back the arrearage. Once this process has been completed the mortgagee should then consult with their legal counsel to determine if the asset is eligible for a Loan Modification since the spouse is not on the original mortgage.

Jeans: Does brand matter?
I'm in dire need of new jeans, and I'm on a budget. Almost all I have are Levi's, 550 and 505, so I don't know the differences between brands. I wear jeans all day every day, for relaxing, biking (expecially in the cold!), going to classes, and whatever else. All of my jeans except one pair have holes in the knees, if not other places.
My question is, are there brands to be avoided? Is a cheaper price worth it? Do certain brands last longer, or are they significantly better made?
Write a review of your favorite and unfavorite brands... don't just list a brand name. If you happen to know of websites that compare jeans brands, share that, too!
Walmart has:
- Levi Strauss Signature for only $20
- Wrangler for $15
Kohl's has:
- Levi's for $30
- Urban Pipline for $15
- Sonoma for $25
- Axist for $25
- axcess for $24
- Haggar for $30
- Lee for $20
Thanks!
my fav. is Levi's. there 511's are the best, and I don't think any other brand can't match there price, plus the quality is great and they last forever.
Least fav. has been wrangler, they rip easily.
