Question by Bman: For a Making Home Affordable loan modification, cure is amount of equity considered in the approval process?
A representative at my lender mentioned if you have over 30% equity in your house, ampoule the modification can be denied based on that. But a counselor at the Making Home Affordable Hope Hot line told me that the equity should not be considered for approval.

Ask the counselor to provide you with a link to the information that states the amount of equity is not to enter into the equation. SHOULD NOT is very weak footing though, if the information really says should not, the lender can deny you based on your equity.

Best of luck to you.

  1. No. The only “amount” that matters is the amount on the appraisal. It has to be high enuf to cover the loan or be within 125% of the existing loan.

    If you really have 30% equity, you would have much better loans to choose from. You would not want a MHA “modification”.
