Like the rest of California, Alameda County has been having a tough time in the housing market. There were over 3,500 foreclosed homes in December 2009 alone, according to RealtyTrac. Fortunately for distressed homeowners, loan modifications are becoming more prevalent and regulated. HomeStart is accredited by the BBB and provides loan modification services to the many who qualify.

Now more than ever, lenders are willing to renegotiate the loan terms. Not only do lenders save more money by modifying a loan than foreclosing on a property, but President Obama’s new Homeowner and Stability Plan (HASP) further incentivizes lenders to offer loan modifications. These loan modifications entail permanent adjustments to the loan terms that can allow homeowners to maintain their mortgage payments and keep their homes. HomeStart will determine if you qualify for a loan modification and get the process started with no upfront fees.

Why choose HomeStart?

In addition to having an A+ grade from the BBB, HomeStart is licensed by the California Department of Real Estate (DRE). The DRE established certain policies for its members regarding the capability of performing home loan modifications. The DRE thoroughly assesses a firm before allowing it to become a member, which demonstrates the legitimacy of HomeStart.

Here is an example of a recent loan modification performed by HomeStart:
