A: No, lenders are currently accepting loan modifications for a variety of reasons. If you can demonstrate you are in a financial hardship or are going to be in a hardship you are a strong candidate. Borrowers whose loans have either recently adjusted or are about to adjust are also in a good position. Recent homebuyers who are "upside down" in their mortgage where they owe more than their house is worth also generally qualify because they pose a risk to the lender in that they may "walk away" from their home rather than continue paying for a house that is depreciating.
