In order to reduce the number of foreclosures, which have been on the rise recently, Pres. Obama introduced a plan to make homes more affordable. It offers Hurst Euless Bedford, Texas homeowners the chance to either modify their home loan or refinance it. They will then be able to get a fixed-rate mortgage at a 2% interest rate. Here are a few major points from the bill that will affect homeowners the most.

#1 - It is no longer necessary to have at least 20% equity built up in your Hurst Euless Bedford, Texas home, or the equivalent in cash to be approved for a modification of your home loan. If you have been rejected for refinancing or modification you may now find that you can get an approval.

#2 - This plan permits any Hurst Euless Bedford, Texas homeowners, that currently owe more than the value of their home on their loan, the opportunity to refinance their mortgage or modify it.

#3 - Cash incentives are being offered to banks and lending institutions that are willing to help out homeowners in Hurst Euless Bedford, Texas that have been caught in the housing market crisis. The approval rate for loans is much higher now, since this plan has been set in place and these incentives have been introduced.

#4 – The owner of the Hurst Euless Bedford, Texas home must live in it in order to qualify. Owners of vacation homes and rental housing in Hurst Euless Bedford, Texas cannot use this plan unless they reside in them permanently. This is unfortunate because in most cases, when a rental foreclosure takes place the occupants are evicted and must find new housing.

Many people in Hurst Euless Bedford, Texas are taking this opportunity to modify and refinance their existing loan in order to save their Hurst Euless Bedford, Texas home, or merely as a way to get their finances back in order.
