Modification of Loans through Citibank and Citimortgage - Take Advantage of this Beneficial Plan for Homeowners Now

Learn about the benefits of modifying your loan if you are a Citibank customer.
An agreement with the U.S. Department of the Treasury has allowed Citimortgage, the servicer of residential loans for Citibank, to provide a progressive, reasonably priced program for mortgagors. Citimortgage can now receive federal incentive funds for agreeing to renegotiate loans for mortgages with homeowners. This program allows you to apply for modifications to the terms of an active loan. Following is information on how you can apply to take advantage of this program.

All mortgagors are entitled to be considered, even those whose previous applications have been rejected. According to the terms of this federally approved program, Citibank and Citimortgage are required to extend this plan to all applying homeowners, in accordance with revised regulations and subsidies from the government. Thus, even those who were who were previously denied the possibility of altering their loans should take advantage of this opportunity. If you respond with a "yes" to one or more of the following prompts, it is possible that you will indeed be approved:

1. Is your mortgage for the home where you typically reside?

2. Were you issued the loan for your home before the First of January in 2009?

3. Is the balance of the mortgage for your home lower than $729,750?

4. Do the payments for your mortgage constitute more than 31 percent of your gross earnings every month? (This includes taxes, fees for insurance and dues for home ownership.)

If the answer to one or more of the above questions was a "yes," get in touch with your bank to request this new program. Of course, not all mortgagors will be approved. But those who can demonstrate that they do indeed qualify could see their rate of interest reduced to as low as 2 percent for up to 4 decades.

This program is intended to aid those who own homes in achieving a workable, reasonable monthly plan for paying off mortgages by an amount totaling 31 percent of gross earnings in a month. The Department of the Treasury is set to pay Citibank per approved application, so Citibank has more reason than ever to lend its mortgagors a hand. Also, those homeowners who qualify will be paid as much as $5,000 if they keep up to date on their newly approved loan for five consecutive years.

To help ensure ease in the process of applying, as well as a positive outcome, make sure to have all of the necessary information prior to getting in touch with Citibank or sending in the application. You will be well served to set an hour or perhaps even more time aside to review the protocol for applications; after all, there is much to be gained. Prior to initiating the process of modifying your loan with Citibank, be certain to have all materials necessary for direct consultation with your bank.
