IMPAC Letter GMAC? Hello all!
My first post here and I would first like to thank the creators of this site. A very informative site I might say.
My question is the validity of a letter I received from IMPAC. They state they are the owner of my note from GMAC. Is this true? They give various options that we MAY qualify for, examples:
*Put you in a mortgage payment you can afford
*Move any delinquent payments and fees to te end of my loan term
*Provide with a 5-year payment relief
*Possible reduction my loan balance
All of which we would love to qualify for. Our situation: We bought a home in Sept 2005 for $430K, Home is now appraising at under $300K. We had a year ARM, it adjusted to ungodly interest rate. We were able to make the high payments for a few months but need help. We were able to get a 2 year Modification to have our original interest rate reinstated. We would love to try and reduce our payments as the job I had (during loan Mod) has Laid me off due to budget cuts. I was lucky and able to go back to my former employer, but we are barely making ends meet with a new baby and costs and utility increases. I know for a fact if it adjusts again next year, we will not be able to make the payments. Just looking forward.
Does this IMPAC sound legitimate?
Thanks in advance!
