My loan is not Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac backed, can the Making Home Affordable Program help me?
The MHA and HAMP programs are designed to help homeowners with Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae backed loans only. However, there are other programs out there for homeowners who do not have loans with these institutions. Regardless of credit score or payment history, these programs are designed to help homeowners stay in their homes and avoid the foreclosure process. One of the first things a Lender will require from the borrower is a Letter of Hardship explaining the borrower’s situation and why they cannot continue with their current loan.
