Additional Details

To the person who asked if I was nice when I called and talked to them YES I was. It is just that I am starting to panick because I don't have enough money to go around, and I don't want them to forclose. That is what is going to happen if they don't get going.

Here is what you don't understand about mortgage modification.

THEY ARE NOT REQUIRED TO MODIFIY IT...AT ALL.

Obama and Bush, made this CLEAR...the banks are permitted to modify the mortgage, but the Federal gov't stopped short and did NOT require them to do so.

So you can complain all you want...but you had better be nice.

You have other options, you may not like them, but you have other options.

1. Sell the house.

2. Deed in Lieu of a foreclosure...this will help you avoid a deficiency judgement if the house doesn't sell enough at a foreclosure sale to cover the balance you owe.

    They are doing you a favor; they have no obligation to modify your loan. Have you called them to (nicely) find out if there are any problems, can you help in any way, do they need more information? They are overworked and understaffed in this are of the business right now, and someone who deals with them pleasantly is going to get a LOT better service than someone who calls in like some hothead with demands and such.

    Hello,

    I live in the US and i really have never seen goodness shown to me this
    much in my life as i am a struggling mum with three kids and i have been going
    through really rough times in my life and my name is Helen
    Peters and in all this hard times, a worse incident occured in my life as i
    lost my job which was my only means of survival and things became really bad as
    i had bills to pay and my last son suffered a knee injury incurred when he fell
    from a tree house and the doctors informed me that he needed a surgical
    operation for his knee so he could walk again and at this point, life was
    useless to me as i have no family and no one to run to and each night, i will
    sit down and cry till the break of dun until one day, i read an advert on yahoo
    answers of man that stated that he could help people in my shoes with loans and
    in my desperate situation, i had no choice but i had to try and so shocking and
    suprising, it was like an impossibility becoming a reality, i got a loan of
    $75,000 USD even with my bad credit within 48 hours and my sons surgery was done
    and thank GOD it was successful and now, i am okay and living in comfort with my
    kids and i said to my self, i have never ever seen this kind of wonder in life
    and i decided i will tell it to the whole wild world and i need every one to
    thank GOD for Mr Patrick Harvey, the man GOD used to rescue me and my family
    even when all hope had been lost and gone and i will say to every one, no matter
    how dark and sinful the world is today, there are still GOD fearing and reliable
    people on earth and if you are in my former situation or require a loan
    legitimately, i will advice you contact this loan lender and you can reach him
    via patrickharvey12@yahoo.com and i want you all to pray for this man for me.
