There are just a few--none that you want or should to do business with. (My opinion) Please call your mortgage company and ask about applying for a HUD asistance loan. They will reduce the payment that is manageable until your situation is resolved.

Only if the borrower qualifies on his own and the bank allows it. You will also have to be removed from the deed.
Collateral is the property a borrower pledges to a lender in a loan. This property secures the lender's interest. A house is the collateral on a mortgage loan.
An asset that a borrower transfers to the possession of a lender as collateral for a loan. The borrower maintains ownership and all associated rights of the pledged asset. When the loan is repaid, the lender transfers possession back to the borrower. The pledged asset reduces the risk to the lender that the borrower will default, therefore possibly qualifying the borrower for some benefit, such as a lower interest rate. When buying a house, some mortgage borrowers will pledge an asset, such as stock, to the lend
Your first stop should be the original lender. You have a relationship with them, which means that lots of things will go more smoothly. If that doesn't work, then search online for a local lender.
You mortgage the home. The process is similar to a refinance, but you do not have a lender that will be paid off. Therefore it is automatically a "cash out" refinance mortgage.
Each lender will have specific requirements for refinancing, but most will expect that your income be significantly higher than your mortgage, that you will be able to pay closing costs after the refinance, and that your house is worth more than you are asking to borrow in the refinanced loan.
What can happen and what will happen are often very different. Technically, death of a borrower is a "default event" for most mortgage loans, meaning that the bank can call the loan due and payable. This would typically force the inheritor to sell or refinance the home. However, if there is no interruption in payment, the lender may not be aware that a borrower has passed away for some time. The best thing to do is decide what will be done with the home. If it will be retained, refinance the loan once the ownership has been transferred legally to you. If you want to sell the home, you may continue making the payments while you market the home without involving the lender until you are ready. Remember that the lender does not know who you are, so be prepared to send any Will or Trust documents along with death certificates to the lender.
Co-signer or co-borrower? A cosigner has no legal right to property, unless their name is on the title/deed. When refinancing a house, if there is a "cash out" transaction, that money can be used to pay outstanding debts. Usually this is a Home Eq. loan, but it can be a refinanced transaction. Although the debts are listed in the paper work, they are not automatically paid, unless there are specific contractual stipulations between the lender and borrower.
Typically if it's not an in-house agent of the lender, it's either a mortgage banker or a mortgage broker.
fine. So it is really difficult to simply quote a baseline score, as it will not be applicable from lender to lender or borrower to borrower. However, with credit scores of 653, 676 and 697, you have a good chanc what credit score you need to buy a home. http://www.squidoo.com/whatcreditscoredoyouneedtobuyahouse
The lender can foreclose the mortgage and sell the house to recoup its losses. You would lose the house. Your credit rating will plummet.
