Mortgage Programs Are Available to Help
If you need help, the following options may be possible subject to our approval. Not all borrowers will qualify for the listed
options. We cannot guarantee that you will receive any or a particular type of assistance. Options may include refinancing
or modifying your mortgage to make your payments and terms more manageable, for instance, lowering your monthly
payment to make it more affordable. Or, if you have missed a few payments, you may qualify for a temporary (or
permanent) solution to help you get your finances back on track. If you are not able to continue paying your mortgage,
your best option may be to find more affordable housing. As an alternative to foreclosure, you may be able to sell your
home and use the proceeds to pay off your current loan. Depending on your circumstances, staying in your home may not
be possible. However, a short sale or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure may be a better choice than foreclosure – see the table
