Good Afternoon WendPerry

you will need to do a loan modification.
An attorney can help you with this as they can help you renegotiate your terms for your current loan. Please post back if you have any questions

thanks
robert

Hi wendyperry!

Welcome to forums!

In today's market situation, I think it is impossible to get a refinance with a credit score below 500. Even FHA needs a minimum of 580 credit score. I agree with Banker here. You should speak to your lender and look for a loan modification. In a loan modification, the lender will offer you a alternative repayment plan to pay off the debt. You can also check out the option of forbearance. In this process, the lender will either reduce or suspend your payments for few months depending upon your situation. The lender will also give you a repayment plan.

Feel free to ask if you have further queries.
