People really want to keep their home, but just can't figure out what to do. The loan modification negotiators realize how desperate the homeowners are. They use their power over the person to take an ego trip.

"I'm going to make this person beg me personally for their loan modification", they think to themselves. Everything becomes a competition between negotiators on who can squeeze more out of people.
They talk to their fellow negotiators about what they are able to force people to do. "I saw that one lady had $100 a month for entertainment on her financial statement. I told her she didn't deserve money for entertainment when she owed money to us", they say to them.
Meanwhile, the other negotiator tells their story. "One couple had $200 a month on their financial statement to give to their church. As soon as I saw that, I increased the payment I asked by $200", they say.
Yes, power does corrupt. These loan modification negotiators hold they keys to the homeowners future staying in their home.
Here is what needs to be added to the Homeowner's Bill of Rights.
1. Whenever a homeowner is turned down for a loan modification, the lender shall give them a written, coherent response along with the reason they were turned down. It needs to specifically detail why they were denied and what they can do to be approved.
2. Homeowners are given all the guidelines at the beginning of the loan modification process. They should receive the same guidelines the loan modification negotiator receives. That way they can make sure that they aren't lying to them.

***HOPE Loan Port**** Is this going to be the new "Equator" for loan mods?? Counselors working with HAMP Modification applications have a shiny new tool to use: the HOPE LoanPort, a new web portal tool. Launched by the HOPE NOW Alliance, along with HUD, this new web portal will allow counselors to collect the necessary documents from homeowners, upload the completed package, submit the completed package directly to servicers, and track the status of a borrower's application. Designers hope it will stop lost documents, enforce complete HAMP applications, and improve efficiency and transparency. But don't take their word for it - check out
http://www.hopeloanportal.orgIt's actually the MHA process that is slowing things down. People need to educate themselves on the MHA guidelines and they will know that they can opt out of the program and try for an in-house review. Anytime the government gets involved it just creates huge gridlock. Look at the HAFA program for short sales, for instance. Good luck...keep trying!
