Homeowners in Spokane need to pay close attention to the upcoming changes announced by President Obama in the Making Home Affordable Re
finance Program (HARP 2.0). These changes will provide relief for the 245,000 homeowners in Washington who are upside down on their mortgage.
Under previous HARP guidelines low mortgage rates were not made available to Washington homeowners because their loan balances exceeded 125% of appraised value (LTV). HARP 2.0 guidelines make it advantageous for homeowners to check their eligibility for this enhanced program to see if they qualify to lower their rate and payment.
SHOULD I REFINANCE WITH HARP 2.0?
- Is your home "upside down" and think you might not qualify for a HARP refinance?
- UNLIMITED LTV - No matter how far upside down your home is, eligible homeowners can refinance a first mortgage.
- Do you think you are going to have to pay for another appraisal fee?
- APPRAISALS WAIVED - An appraisal fee will not be necessary if sufficient data is already available on your property. The cost saving alone is upwards of $500!
- Are you tired of some of the high fees associated with refinancing?
- REDUCED COSTS - There could be fee savings of $2,000 or more associated with HARP that can be reduced or eliminated!
- HARP 2.0 has capped fees that are half the level of HARP 1.0 fees.
