The Government has taken notice of the economic problems that millions of homeowners across the country are facing and have enacted the $75 billion “Making Home Affordable” plan to assist these homeowners. This mortgage refinance or modification plan allows homeowners to obtain a 4% fixed rate mortgage, and save their home from foreclosure.Homeowners are losing their jobs, losing their income, facing huge debts, or are in bad mortgages and this Government backed plan will help them save hundreds of dollars every single month. This money would help ensure that the homeowner gets their financial problems in order, save money for the future, or pay off other high interest debts. Also, a lot of homeowners now are already in the foreclosure process. This plan would help a homeowner, who is facing foreclosure, a fast track refinance or modification and a greatly increased chance of saving their home.As many as 9 million homeowners will be able to take advantage of this plan. This is due to mortgage lenders and banks receiving cash incentives from the Government for every homeowner they approve for refinancing or modification under the guidelines of this plan. Both the Government and mortgage lenders know that foreclosures really benefit nobody when everything is said and done. Banks and lenders stand to benefit much more by working with the homeowner to get an mortgage payment which is actually affordable. To do this mortgage rates will be lowered to as low as 4% through refinance or modification, to help ensure homeowners can stay in their home, and help the foreclosure rate drop.Homeowners who have already taken advantage of this program from President Obama are reporting savings that average in the hundreds, every single month.

The bottom line is that if you are a homeowner who is in a bad mortgage, having financial problems, or are facing foreclosure, Obamas “Making Home Affordable” plan will likely be able to assist you save your home.
