As your loan term was modified due to the loan modification, I think the interest rate was reduced. As the interest rate was reduced, the loan term was increased. Thus, you will have to pay a lesser amount for a longer period of time in order to clear off the mortgage dues. Feel free to ask if you have further queries. Sussane

They more then likely lowered the interest rate as stated above in which the whole loan will start over at a lower monthly rate. You will start all over at 30 years again.

The payment went down $20 not much difference. My mortgage co. also had me pay them $1000 up front before they would remodify my loan.

Arline Guest	Posted: Tue Apr 07, 2009 8:04 am    Post subject: Modification Like 0 Dislike 0 What they said is that they would put the money i owed on the back of my loan. They said the loan would be modified and that i could not refinance at the time that i would have to wait at least 6 months to a year.

You were delinquent on your mortgage payments and thus applied for a loan modification. The lender accepted your request and modified the loan. He gave you a new repayment plan wherein your interest rate was reduced so that you could pay off the debts easily. However, by doing so, the lender increased your loan term. As your loan is modified, you need to make regular payments for at least 8-12 months in order to refinance the loan. Feel free to ask if you have further queries. Sussane
