What are some examples of how the borrowers ability to repay might be improved?
The following are some examples (this list is not all-inclusive): • A lower interest rate that results in a lower monthly payment. • Replacing a higher-risk loan instrument with a more stable one, such as going from an ARM to an FRM • A change in term (which may result in an increased payment) that does not compromise the borrower’s ability to repay the loan.
