      <title>Are you eligible?  Making Home Affordable</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Help for America's Homeowners&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Are You Eligible?&lt;/strong&gt; Please use the self-assessment tools provided on this website to see if you are among the 7 to 9 million homeowners who may be able to benefit from Making Home Affordable.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;http://makinghomeaffordable.gov/&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Refinancing: Many homeowners pay their mortgages on time but are not able to refinance to take advantage of today&amp;rsquo;s lower mortgage rates perhaps due to a decrease in the value of their home.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Modification: Many homeowners are struggling to make their monthly mortgage payments perhaps because their interest rate has increased or they have less income.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
