Mortgage Refinancing Process?
bored_at_home asked:
I have 2 missed payments and now I am receiving phone calls and letters from banker saying they will foreclose if not paid in full within days. I have not received a certified letter yet, so I am not in foreclosure. I started talking to a broker to refinance my mortgage. Can my current mortgage lender foreclose if I am at the early stages of a refi? So when exactly during the refinance process can my current mortgage lender no longer foreclose on me? During escrow? Once I signed the application? During underwriting?
Another question, who notifies my current lender that I am in the process of refinancing so that they dont foreclose my house? Should I called them?

Home mortgage refinancing fees?
DLM asked:
We bought our home less than a year ago and want to refinance. The bank that originally held our mortgage sold it to another bank. The bank that holds it now says they want us to pay for the title, lawyers and appraisal again. If all this was done less than a year ago why do we need to pay all these fees again?

Is now the right time to refinance your mortgage? Please read…?
reni768 asked:
We bought our house in Oct. 2007. Our interest rate is 6.5%. Would it be good to refinance if the rate got down to 5.75%? We need to lower our payments if need be. We are so strapped right now with rising gas prices, food prices, daycare for summer, etc.
Right now we are financed through Wells Fargo and have been on time with every payment. We filed bankruptcy in 2004 on a mobile home that had water damage so I was wondering if this might hinder us in refinancing? Any advice would be appreciated!!!!!!!!!!

I have a high debt to income ratio. Are there any mortgage lenders that I could refinance with?
imst22 asked:
I currently have a $258k mortgage at 6.5%. My place is worth approximately $350k, so I have about $92k in equity. My debt to income ratio is around 63%. With rates around 5%, I think it would be worthwhile to refinance; however, I was told that my debt to income ratio is too high. My credit score is around 760 and I have never missed any mortgage or bill payments. My debt is largely due to student loans, car payments, credit cards, and depreciation on a rental property that I have. I am actively paying down my debts, but am disappointed that I have not found a lender to refinance with despite good credit, and no missed payments. Are there any lenders that anyone knows of that might work with someone with high debt to income, but good credit? If I get the opportunity to refinance, it will allow me to pay down my debts that much quicker. Thanks for any advice.

How to get out out of a expensive mortgage?
mtnman717us asked:
Is there any good way to get out of an upside down mortgage? My ex wife currently owns a house that she really can’t afford. We refinanced the mortgage when we got diovrced 5 years ago. Since then, she has refinanced once more. With the current housing market where she lives, she owes more than she could get for it by selling at a reasonable price. Does she have any options to get out of the mortgage?
If my ex wife sells the house for less than she owes on the mortgage, and owes the difference to the bank, is that money owed at the time of closing or is it paid back as a personal loan?
I did try to help her sell it when we got divorced, knowing it was too expensive for her to maintain with her financial situation. My advice was not well received, as she wanted the status symbol of a big home. I no longer have any financial obligation on the home, so it is not my problem to resolve.
For anyone who wants to know my motive, there is no motive for me one way or the other. I don’t benefit one way or the other. I do care about my children though who live with my ex wife, and making sure they are cared for and have a nice, reasonable place to live. I pay my child support and she needs to also be able to adequately take care of them and share the costs of raising them.
