But, in today’s tough economy they have no choice but to accept them. The primary reason a lender will grant a loan modification is because that usually reduces their losses.

If they foreclosed on the house instead, then the losses would be larger. Besides most foreclosures take 18-24 months and often longer.

(That alone should convince you that their losses will be larger after a foreclosure.)

Use this to your benefit when negotiating a loan modification. Hire a real estate agent to tell you what your house is worth. Then, show your lender that value.

Now, add in all the costs that you can think they will incur if they foreclose on your home. Below are some examples costs.

Current Market Value: $300,000.

Lost Interest income at 5% over two years. $30,000.

Property Taxes over two years: $6,000.

Home Insurance costs for two years: $3,000.

Projected Net from a foreclosure: $261,000.

Because the lender can clearly see how much money they will use, it make it much easier to negotiate a reasonable loan modification.

If you want a realtor to give you the value of your home, then please send me an e-mail. I can put together a Broker’s Price Opinion and tell you what I think your home’s value is.

You can use that to negotiate with your lender. Thinking about a short sale?
