If you are struggling to make your monthly payments, it is a relief to learn about the possibility of a loan modification. It is a terrible feeling to live in fear of defaulting on your mortgage and losing your house to foreclosure. A loan modification might be just what you need, and if so, you have to learn what to do to reach a modification agreement. The first thing you need to do is contact a qualified financial advisor. There are two ways to do this, either from a HUD-approved note for profit group or from a professional loan modification company. You could try to complete the process all on your own, but you will have more success if you use a third party, who not only help you through the process but will also advocate for you as well.You will discuss your financial situation with your counselor, review all your options and decide what is the best thing for you to do.

Refinancing a mobile home is a little different than refinancing a regular home, but it can be done. First you need to determine what type of mobile home you have. Mobile homes, manufactured homes and modular homes are all commonly referred to as mobile homes, although, as you'll see, this is no longer a very proper term. Manufactured homes are actually the new name for mobile homes, although the term "mobile home" is used much more often than the more accurate and modern "manufactured home". Under the US Department Housing and Urban Development (HUD) guidelines, mobile homes made after 1976 are called manufactured homes. Manufactured homes are made entirely in a factory and built with a steel frame or chassis. They are then transported to the home site. Manufactured homes can be relocated by following appropriate State regulations regarding the transportation of manufactured homes by experienced trucking companies. Manufactured homes often decrease in value over time. Modular homes are also built in a factory, but are made of the same building materials as a regular home rather than the steel framing of a manufactured home. Modular homes are usually only partially constructed...more
