Best Answer

A Chapter 13 bankruptcy puts the entire debt collection process on hold to give the filers time to work out a court-approved repayment plan for a portion of their debts.

Thus, because the process is on hold, a loan modification can not be enacted while a mortgage is currently under the supervision of the Chapter 13 trustee.

However, it is possible to negotiate a modification of a loan with the mortgage lender during the bankruptcy. But it will be necessary to have the bankruptcy case voluntarily dismissed before the modification can be finalized and put into effect. Banks may not be willing to negotiate with the borrowers under the circumstances of a Chapter 13, though.

How do you get loan modification?

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.
