I would guess that the letter you received is for a refinance. If it is a refinance you will need to apply and be approved using whatever the current approval guidelines are. One big issue I see is your appraisal on the property will crush your chances. I have not read anywhere where
CW has reduced principle on anyones loan to date but I could be wrong!
