What are my options to change a mortgage from a predatory loan to a standard loan?

Answered 11 years and 10 months ago by Joseph Francisco Botelho (Unclaimed Profile)   |   1 Answer   |  Legal Topics: Foreclosures
As far as your wife signing the documents, that would depend on the laws of your state. In Massachusetts a spouse must always sign the mortgage, right to cancel, settlement statement, in truth in lending. This does not mean that the spouses obligated to pay, unless they also signed the NOTE. As far as your options go, you can attempt to refinance, attempt to get a mortgage modification or use a chapter 13 bankruptcy and use the bankruptcy process to get a mortgage modification under the supervision of the bankruptcy court. I have responded to your inquiry according to the laws of Massachusetts, where my firm is located. Laws can vary significantly from state to state and cases tend to be rather fact-specific, so you are best served by consulting with a knowledgeable attorney in weighing your options. Email messages/Online Correspondence are akin to conversations and do not reflect the level of analysis applied to formal legal opinions. Email/Online responses do not form an attorney-client relationship.    Joseph F. Botelho, Esq.
