Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about loan modifications.

How long does it take to get approved for a loan modification?

The timeline for approval of a loan modification can vary depending on factors such as the lender's process, documentation requirements, and individual circumstances. Our team at Shari Saves Homes works diligently to expedite the process and keep clients informed every step of the way.

What documents do I need for a loan modification?

The documents required for a loan modification can vary, but typically include proof of income, bank statements, tax returns, hardship letter, and mortgage statements. At Shari Saves Homes, we help clients gather and organize the necessary documentation to streamline the process.

Will a loan modification affect my credit score?

A loan modification may have some impact on your credit score, but it can be less severe than foreclosure or bankruptcy. Our team at Shari Saves Homes works to minimize the negative effects on your credit and helps you explore options to rebuild your credit over time.

What is a Trial Payment Plan and how does it work?

A Trial Payment Plan (TPP) is the standard 3-month proof period that lenders require before permanently executing a loan modification. During these three months, you make the proposed new modified payment amount on time each month to demonstrate that the restructured terms are sustainable for your budget. Once all three trial payments are completed successfully, the modification is made permanent and the new terms are locked into your loan documents.

What happens to my overdue payments and fees during a loan modification?

Through a process called principal capitalization, your overdue arrears, escrow shortages, and certain qualified fees are safely rolled back into the principal loan balance rather than being demanded as a lump sum. This means you do not need to come up with thousands of dollars upfront to catch up. Instead, those past-due amounts are added to your loan's principal and amortized across the remaining term, allowing you to start fresh with a clean payment slate and an affordable monthly obligation.

Real Stories from Clients

Homeowners just like you trusted Shari to fight for their homes — and won.

"After trying since 2013 to resolve my home crisis situation unsuccessfully, I hired Shari (Shari Saves Homes) approximately 4 months ago - 2024 to work on my behalf with my mortgage lender. This was indeed the best decision I ever made. In less then 4 months with a mortgage that was $200k plus in default, Shari managed to get me a trail modification with the expectation of a fully executed modification mortgage upon completion of the trail. During the entire process, she was always reachable, attentive, knowledgeable, compassionate and non judgemental about my indebtedness. Lastly, she produces results. Thank you Shari!"

"Shari and her team are truly exceptional. After my home loan modification was denied-even after an appeal-Shari refused to give up. She tirelessly negotiated on my behalf until she secured a loan modification, ultimately saving my home from foreclosure. The name "Shari Saves Homes" couldn't be more fitting! Shari is trustworthy, responsive, and reliable. She and her team stand by your side every step of the way, providing guidance and support while easing the stress of the process.

"Shari Parish is a pro.... My husband and I will be forever grateful that we found Shari Parish. We were losing our home after over 20 years in it and had tried but failed to get our lender to modify our mortgage. Not only did Shari get it done for us to save our home, she was an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the process. Words like kind, caring and compassionate immediately come to mind. Others like diligent, knowledgeable and highly detail-oriented describe how she got us through the paperwork gathering process. Instead of packing up to move out of our beloved home, we are remodeling thanks only to Shari Parish!"
