HARP Eligibility Expanded
HARP Eligibility Expanded
Homeowners with note dates that reflect on or before May 31, 2009, and who were previously told they were not HARP eligible should contact one of Inlanta’s licensed mortgage lenders to discuss their HARP eligibility.
What is HARP?
HARP is the only refinance program that enables eligible borrowers with little to no equity in their homes to take advantage of low interest rates and other refinancing benefits. There have been several changes to HARP and more homeowners may now qualify.
HARP may be an option if:
- You have had a good payment history for the past 12 months. That means having no late payments in the last 6 months and no more than one 30-day late payment from 6 to 12 months ago.
- Your home is your primary residence, 2nd home or investment property.
- Your home value has decreased.
- You have limited equity or your first mortgage exceeds the current market value of the home (i.e., your loan-to-value ratio must be > 80% to be eligible).
- Your loan is owned or guaranteed by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.
- Your note date reflects on or before May 31, 2009
Should I Refinance Using HARP?
