Can anyone qualify for a loan modification?
Generally any one can qualify for a loan modification but lenders usually require a borrower to be late on the mortgage payments and be in a financial hardship position. Medical issues, job interruption or income reduction seem to be the best factors in getting approved for a loan modification. Simply wanting a lower rate because an adjustable rate loan coming due is not a valid reason to be approved for a loan modification. You must have a reason for a lender to re-do the note.
