Freddie Mac Streamlined Modification for Delinquent Borrowers to Start July 1, 2013
(firmenpresse) - MCLEAN, VA -- (Marketwire) -- 03/27/13 -- The following statement was released today by Tracy Mooney, Senior Vice President, Servicing and REO, Freddie Mac (OTCQB: FMCC):
"The Streamlined Modification will open a new gateway to mortgage relief for many of America's struggling borrowers. Starting July 1, 2013 servicers will proactively offer eligible borrowers a Streamlined Modification, which can cut monthly mortgage payments by as much as a standard modification but with less documentation. We look forward to working with our servicers to implement the Streamlined Modification initiative, which underscores our commitment to keep more financially troubled borrowers in their homes. Freddie Mac has helped an estimated 2.6 million families avoid foreclosure through mortgage modifications or refinancing since the housing crisis began."
The Streamlined Modification will target borrowers who are at least 90 days delinquent on mortgages that are at least 12 months old, and meet other eligibility criteria.
Eligible borrowers are not required to submit documentation, but can accept a Streamlined Modification offer simply by making the trial period payments. The modification becomes permanent once the borrower demonstrates their ability to pay by completing the trial period.
The Streamlined Modification offers the same mortgage terms as the Freddie Mac announced in September 2011, which enables servicers to reduce a borrower's monthly mortgage payment by adjusting interest rates, extending payment terms to 40 years, and providing principal forbearance for certain underwater borrowers.
