Fabulous! (2/7/12) : The Federal Government will announce soon the details of the new "H.A.R.P. 2" (Home Affordable Refinance Program). This is a variation of the old HARP 1 which did not work for many reasons. It is expected to be far better and that it could, really help many property owners who now owe more than their properties are worth. As soon as we have the information we will announce it here. This Program is ONLY for mortgages from Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac and does NOT affect Reverse Mortgages. If you are a Florida (only) property owner and you want more info and to determine if your loan is Fannie Mae o Freddie Mac, provide me with the information requested on the form at http://RodKohlyMortgages.com/HARP2SearchForm This is the required 1st step to determine if you could qualify.

¡Fabulous!(2/7/12): Although it is not definite yet, it seems that most Reverse Mortgage Lenders have not applied the new Financial Assesment requiring Credit and Income qualification suggested by FHA and initiated by only one major Lender. Basically it was requiring Credit and Income qualification and appraently lost many prospective borrowers.
Definitively, the problem exist that many homeowners that have a Reverse Mortgage are NOT paying tproperty taxes and insurance. They can lose their homes. (read below)
Lenders will have to take steps to prevent this from happening. Thera ways, like requiring "Set Asides" of funds to pay theses for several years. That can only happen if the proceeds are enough to pay of the closing costs and the current mortgage.
