While you do read headlines or hear about loan modification scams and criminals posing as loan modification professionals ripping off homeowners in the news, legitimate hardship loan modification companies. are and have been getting mortgages modified for clients. I would not be surprised to learn that more than half the modifications reported as completed by banks were negotiated by legitimate loan modification companies.
They work for the homeowner and are effective when dealing with mortgage lenders. Yes you can call your lender and let their home loss mitigation employees do your mortgage modification for you but do think they are looking out for your best interests?
See these articles on what you are really up against when dealing with your mortgage servicer:
My point is not to scare you but to show that when dealing with your loan servicer or lender do not assume you are being helped no matter what you are told the modification you are offered is often arbitrary and wrong.
If you can afford your home at a reasonable payment and interest rate then fight for it and get real help if you need it.
The Real Target Of Bank Financed Media And Political Attacks
Mortgage loan modification professionals are not easily bluffed, confused or intimidated by the tactics banks use to scare homeowners into bad loan modifications that do not work.
These very professionals where the true target of the bank financed media and political campaigns to legislate and regulate legitimate loan modification companies out of business.
Banks would rather work directly with the homeowner who has never modified a loan before and has no idea of what his options are, what he can negotiate or what can be worked out to save his home. The next best thing is a volunteer working for a non-profit that may have only watched some government webinars and little if any on the job training or quality control.
(OK, so that was my rant. Here is what really happens, the "volunteer" working for the non-profit is actually well paid if under trained or qualified. He usually makes $100 - $300 for every loan modification submitted and $400 - $700 for every loan modification that is approved. The non-profit gets what the government pays above that amount. They are usually only concerned with getting as many modifications submitted as possible and some will be approved. Yes that is your government stimulus money at work.)
{note: The above was true when I first wrote this but now even the non-profits like NACA are trying to phase out submitting loan modification requests and only paying there workers $35 per submission with no bonus for successful modifications. To earn $3000/month a counselor would have to submit 4 complete loan modification requests a day. That does not sound like much but when you consider all the documents that have to be collected up and the follow up phone calls, 10 hours per submission is not enough time to submit the application and follow up the bank to push the modification through to completion. Doing a half the job helping someone would require putting in 40 hour days. All that happens is submitting the application as fast as possible and hope you won't call back.}

Your case will be reviewed to see if it is a candidate for modification and will only be accepted if the home loss mitigation expert has a high certainty that a modification can be negotiated with your lender.
Not all cases will be accepted since there is no payment if a modification is not successfully negotiated. Sorry that we can not take on all cases as we would go out of business if we took on cases that we worked on for months and ultimately were not paid for our work.
*The lenders have the final say in determining the outcome of your loan modification*
*I am not an attorney and the information provided is not legal advice. You can ask for an attorney referral and should consult an attorney if you are seeking legal advice*
*We do not guarantee that a foreclosure can be stopped or give advice on how to prevent foreclosure. We work with a third party who will arrange and negotiate a loan modification in your behalf. We are not offering tax or legal advice in any way. We advise clients to consult their local tax attorney or professional outside or within our solution network.

You may call your lender directly to ask for change of terms. Non profit housing counseling agencies also offer these and other forms of borrower assistance free of charge.
