New Basis Interest Rate
Federal loan modification law has set a new maximum allowable interest rate for mortgagees involved in loan modifications. Mortgagee Letter 2008-21, released on August 14th, 2008 by the Department of Housing and Urban Development, 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. This means that if you’re seeking a loan modification, there is a limit to the interest rate your lender can apply to your new loan modification agreement.
Here at the Loan Modification Help Center, we can help you make sure that your lender is meeting their end of the deal while negotiating your mortgage loan modification.
We understand that many of the laws that the government has enacted to protect you in the event of loan modification can be confusing and difficult to decipher. For example, in the same letter mentioned above, the HUD provides new regulations that may allow you to participate in a loan modification even after foreclosure has been initiated, without being immediately responsible for the fees incurred in the canceled foreclosure proceedings. The Loan Modification Help Center is full of loan modification attorneys who can help you understand how those fees can be incorporated into your loan modification. That way, you can reimburse your lender for canceled foreclosure as you make your new monthly loan payments, instead of being required to pay them all upfront, which may prevent you from being able to initiate a loan modification negotiation.
Depending on the date of the execution of your mortgage loan modification, your maximum allowable interest rate may vary, because the monthly average yield on U.S. Treasury Securities changes from month to month. Your Loan Modification Help Center attorney can help you make sure you get the lowest interest rate possible from your lender while making sure your financial needs are being met. Only by consulting with a qualified professional attorney, whose job it is to keep track of changes in federal loan modification law, can you hope to secure the best loan modification agreement possible for your situation.
