Loan Modifications:

Our business is to help in any way we can when it comes to home finance, if you are having trouble affording your house payment, or are severly upside down in your mortgage we can now help you in modifying your loan. Using both legal and financial means to aggressively pursue negotiations with your lender to modify your loan.

After collecting some information from you, we do a preliminary analysis. Then, after discussing general terms with your lender, we provide you a scenario that either :

(a) reduces your payment,
(b) reduces your interest rate,
(c) reduces your principal balance, or
(d) a combination of these.

We do NOT charge any upfront fees for this analysis. Once we determine whether we can help, we work with you on the fee to be charged, and proceed according to your timeframe. If we can be of support and assistance, we want to work with you to modify your loan.
