You have to apply to your lender for a loan modification. Some
people use attorneys to make application on their behalf, and
others choose to go the "do it yourself mortgage modification"
route.
If you decide to do your own home loan modification, make sure
you get your paperwork correct. You need to know precisely what
your lender requires, otherwise your application will be
rejected.
It may be a good idea to buy a loan modification system that can
show you, step by step, how to go about the loan modification
application.
