Making Home Affordable


Summary of Guidelines | Examples | FAQs | Understanding Your Mortgage Statement


The following are examples of ways the Home Affordable Modification Plan can help make your mortgage affordable. These are examples and are not intended to indicate the exact results you can expect if you qualify for this plan.

GMI = Gross Monthly Income
PITIA = Principal, Interest, Taxes, Insurance and Association Fees
DTI = Debt to Income Ratio



Example 1: Rate reduction to achieve 31% DTI
GMI $ 4000.00
31% GMI (Target Monthly Payment) $ 1240.00
Loan $200,000 @ 7.5% 30 years $ 1398.43/month
   
Taxes and Insurance $ 250.00/month
PITIA $ 1698.43/month
   
Modify rate to 4% to achieve a DTI of appx 31%
   
Modified Rate to 4%: $ 954.83/month
   
Taxes and Insurance: $ 250.00/month
New Payment $ 1204.83/month
Savings $ 493.60/month
   
Example 2: Rate reduction and extending term of loan to 35 years to achieve 31% DTI
   
GMI $ 3000.00
31% GMI (Target Monthly Payment) $ 930.00
Loan $200,000 @ 7.5% 30 years $ 1398.43/month
   
Taxes and Insurance $ 250.00/month
PITIA $ 1698.43/month
   
Modify rate to 2%. Modify term to 35 years to achieve a DTI of appx 31%
   
Modified Rate to 4%: $ 662.53/month
   
Taxes and Insurance: $ 250.00/month
New Payment $ 912.53/month
Savings $ 785.90/month
   
Example 3: Rate reduction, term extension and principal forbearance to achieve 31% DTI
   
GMI $ 4500.00
31% GMI (Target Monthly Payment) $ 1395.00
Loan $450,000 @ 9.0% 30 years $ 3620.80/month
   
Taxes and Insurance $ 250.00/month
PITIA $ 3870.80/month
   
Modify rate to 2%. Modify term to 40 years
   
Modified Rate to 2% for 40 years: $ 1362.72/month
   
Taxes and Insurance: $ 250.00/month
New Payment $ 1612.72/month
   
Because lowering the rate to the maximum floor of 2% and extending the terms of the loan to 40 years still does not achieve the desired DTI of 31%, the lender, at its discretion can elect to forgive or forebear a portio of the principal to achieve the 31% DTI. In this example the lender elects to forbear $75,000 of the principal which would be due as a balloon payment at the end of the term of the loan or if the home were to be sold. This is not expected to be a common practice and would most likely be used in an instance where the borrowers suffered a loss of income and the home suffered a sharp decrease in value.
   
Modified Rate to 2% for 40 years on calculated on $370,000 $ 1135.60/month
   
Taxes and Insurance: $ 250.00/month
New Payment $ 1385.60/month
Savings $ 2485.10/month
