HAMP Loan Modification Changes – Modification can NOT be denied because of active bankruptcy

Starting today, June 1, 2010, HAMP Home Loan Modifications cannot be denied because you are in an active chapter 7 or 13 bankruptcy.

This is significant for many consumers. Many consumers facing foreclosure need both bankruptcy and a modification.

A bankruptcy filing will automatically stay a foreclosure on your home and a modification of the terms of the mortgage will make the home more affordable.
