First let me say that a lot of people refer to refinancing as "Mod's" or "Modifications".. If your refinancing, then yes, you can combine 2 loans into one, providing you have sufficient equity, and your loan scenario falls within the Loan to Value (LTV) requirements for your lender. If your referring to an actual Loan Modification, where the lender is leaving the existing mortgage in place, but they are modifying the terms, such as lengthening the term, or lowering the interest rate or reducing the principal, then the answer is no.. ..

Based on how you phrased your question, NO. A loan modification modifies an existing loan. The holder of the first mortgage might be willing to modify, but would not be willing to assume any of the responsibility for the balance on the second. Getting the two companies to agree on terms for both would be near impossible. If you want to combine them into one, and that would require a refinance, which would require sufficient equity to accommodate the new combined balance. ~ Bert Carpenter, The LoansA2z team of NOVA Home Loans ~ NMLS 40586 ~ Certified by the National Association of Mortgage Professionals and Licensed in California and Arizona ~ Licensed in California and Arizona ~ www.LoansA2z.com 888-889-9950

NO. A Modificaiton is merely modifying a current note on a loan. Combining two loans is obviously not a Modification. You can always ask both lenders if they will modify each loan though.

No, I use to work in loss mitigation and one of the hardest parts of moving forward with a modification is getting the second to subordinate to the first.

this is tricky because you are not indicating the value of the property. also were the 2 mortgages taken out simultaneously. or you can try to subordinate the 2nd and streamline or modify the 1st. please e-mail your response to my questions so i can put you in the right direction. thank you gary schneider
