I qualify for HARP 2.0 but my LTV is 130%, is that too high?

Purchased my home in November 2009 for $321,000, home value has fallen. Can HARP help me? by Aiden1234 from Salt Lake City, Utah. Apr 2nd 2013 Reply

HARP guidelines require you loan be committed to Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac on or before May 31st, 2009.. If your loan was initiated in November, 2009 it doesn't qualify.. There are other options available to you, but I would caution you on considering a loan modification.. Just do a Google search for consumer complaints on loan modifications, and you'll see what I'm referring to.. I'm a Broker here in Scottsdale AZ and I only lend in Arizona. If you or someone you know is looking for financing options, feel free to contact me or pass along my information. 480-287-5714 WilliamAcres.com

The fact your loan was done in NOVEMBER 2009, means you do NOT qualify for HARP. Sorry... But contact a local mortgage broker for a full review of your situation and what might be available to you. www.HARP-Refinance-MN.com

Joe is right - the cutoff was May 31, 2009 - and is not the closing date but the date Fannie Mae securitized the loan - which may be weeks after the closing date. I have had clients who missed qualifying by just a few days. Very discouraging. The market in Salt Lake is getting better. Appraisal are coming in higher than expected. I have just refinanced two clients with a regular refinance (couldn't do HARP either) because their homes have appreciated enough. Give me a call - lets talk about your situation and see what we can do. Linda - 801.550.1222.

Unfortunately it is when you took your loan out not the ltv that disqualifies you.

Yes.. most of the answers here are correct. You won't make the 05/31/2009 deadline to be eligible for HARP, and there isn't anything else available at that loan to value if your current loan is a conventional one. I can only assume that HARP will move the 05/31/2009 deadline at some point down the road, so hang in there!

Yep.....5/31/2009 is the current date that you must have closed by as others have mentioned.
