Can I get a loan modification during a foreclosure?

Yes, it is possible to get a loan modification during a foreclosure in Florida. This process involves submitting a request to the lender or servicer of the loan that is in foreclosure. The servicer will review the request and determine if modifications (terms or conditions of the loan, such as a lower interest rate or an extended term) are available. If approved, the modification should be put in writing with all the changes in terms outlined. This agreement must be signed by both the borrower and the servicer. Once the loan is modified, the borrower must make all payments according to the new agreement. In some cases, the servicer may be willing to postpone the foreclosure if the borrower is having difficulty making payments. This could allow the borrower to get current on the loan without going through foreclosure. If the borrower is able to make the modified payments and continue to follow the agreement, the foreclosure process may be avoided. Ultimately, it is up to the lender or servicer to decide if a loan modification is an option. Borrowers should contact their loan servicer as soon as possible to discuss the foreclosure process and potential loan modification options.
