Will a loan modification negotiation stop my mortgage foreclosure?

A loan modification process - that is negotiating a loan modification between the borrower and the bank - you would think would stop the foreclosure proceeding, but it generally does not. That foreclosure proceeding is racing along. And the people at the bank are not calling up the law firm every day advising them on the thousand different foreclosures of what’s going on. The law firm that was told to get a foreclosure is proceeding with a foreclosure, where as the homeowner believes that in talking with the bank and negotiating, there is no foreclosure. That is contrary to what’s happening. They’re going to lose the property. I’m Carl Peron, a New York lawyer and a fighter, to keep people in their homes.

Should I negotiate a loan modification myself?

A person that wants a loan modification can do it himself and runs the risk that the bank can ask questions which the borrower might not be able or want to answer at that point. But, if the borrower hires somebody to do this negotiation for him then there's a certain step away which makes it possible that the agreement can be reached more readily. On the other hand if you just defend the lawsuit the attorney that you hire will be the one to, to negotiate the modification for you.

What is a loan modification?

In New York, as in other states, a loan modification is where the bank and the borrower reach an agreement, which generally reduces the monthly payment that the borrower has to make. In some cases, they throw that unpaid amount at the far end, so that the length of the mortgage is more it's greater length in order to pay back the money that isn't being paid today, but all that is subject to negotiation.

How is a mortgage foreclosure defense like smart business?

When a borrower has a mortgage and knows there's going to be trouble ahead, the borrower should look ahead like anyone in business would that sees bad times coming and they should start adjusting their financial policy, which means in the case of a mortgage, consider whether you should stop paying earlier now, rather than paying until you have no money left. So smart business tactics would be stop paying, force a mortgage foreclosure proceeding and then defend. And then usually reach a negotiation and settlement that will allow the property to be brought back to a performing status.
