Usually the best place to start is with your existing lender, but today most mortgages are bundled and sold to investors so they cannot be modified. The debtor has to refinance the loan. With a refinanced loan, you get a lower interest rate but you start with a new loan payoff date as well.

However, in the case of a Mortgage Modification of an existing loan, the coverage may be extended to cover the existing loan and the new loan amount of the Modification. There would still be title charges for the changes in the Mortgage Modification coverage in most cases.
