I requested a modification in July, after being without work due to pregnancy and childbirth. I sent my paperwork in and was placed on a forebearance that would keep me out of foreclosure. I followed my forebearance to the letter, and finally (TODAY) received my modification.
According to their website, my principle is $104,805.11. My interest rate is 8.99% and monthly payment is $871.00. Their proposed "MODIFICATION": my principle would RAISE to $115,778.09, my interest would be 8.99% and my monthly payment would be $1256.93. HOW"S THAT FOR A "MAKING HOME AFFORDABLE" MODIFICATION!?!?! Oh, it gets better, according to the man I spoke with (while at the HUD counselor) SPS doesn't do the "OBAMA" modification, they do an "IN-HOUSE" modification.
These people are sharks. They prey on you when you're down and screw you when you need help the most. All I wanted was to lower my interest and put my arrears on the end of my loan, but instead I got screwed. Looks like I'm going to lose my house.
