Glenn asked:


We owe on our 1st mortgage is $52,000 at 6.25%, and our HELOC is $105,000 at 8.19%. Fixed. The estimated value of the house is between $110,000. to $150,000. I would like to combine and lower my interest rate, but if that is not possible, how can I lower my HELOC. I would at least like to lower my $730.00 interest on the HELOC. What are my options if any? Thanks!

Refinance current mortgage?

James H asked:


Hi I have a mortgate of around 2 years old and is a 30 year fixed rate at 6.5%. With interest rates being slashed right now and house prices dwindling it would make a lot of sense to be able to refinance the mortgage at a much reduced rate, lower the monthly premium but still pay (ie overpay) the same amount each month to the mortgage company thereby paying of the principle faster and possibly ending up in a few years time with some equity back in the home. If I leave it as is the market is going down as fast as I’m paying off the principle and am therefore no close to actually owning my home. The other alternative to over paying is refinancing at a 15 year fixed rate loan as that seems to be giving me around the same monthly payment as I’m paying out now.
But the question is, with no equity in the house will my current (or even another) mortgage lender even look twice at refinancing (I understand that lenders are reluctant to give out loan to value ratios of higher than 70-80%)
thanks

After struggling to keep our home the mortgage company called it a re-negotiated loan. I am afraid we wont be able to qualify for the tax credit. 2009 was a hard year for our family.

Mortgage Underwriting ? 4506 and e-filing back taxes?

luv2travel asked:


Our home is on the market and have a contract on it. Apparently the IRS never received the buyers 2008 tax return. He went to the IRS office in town today and was told to electronically file it and he should get it back next week. He is supposed to get a small sum of $ back. The 2008 taxes must be processed in order for the mortgage company to get the 4506 transcripts for underwriting.

Here are my questions:

1- Can you electronically file taxes that are for previous years (in this case 2008)?

2- Is it really this fast to get the taxes processed? I thought it was up to 8 weeks or so. The branch mentioned that they “dump a bunch into the system on Thursday” so it will get processed next week.

Thanks for your help.
