7 7 Modification Steps / Waterfall Objective: Achieve a modified payment (PITIA) of 31% of monthly gross income. Step 1: Determine monthly mortgage payment (PITIA= principal, interest, taxes, insurance and homeowner dues) at 31 % of month gross income. Step 2: Capitalize arrearage and calculate modified unpaid principal balance – past due interest, tax and insurance payments, and delinquency expenses. If PITIA is at 31% of gross monthly income, stop. Step 3: Reduce interest rate in increments of.125% to a floor of 2.00%. If modified interest rate is below the current market rate, rate will step up after year five at 1% per year to current market rate. With each rate reduction, if PITIA is at 31% of gross monthly income, stop. Step 4: Extend term for up to 480 months years and reamortize the mortgage. If PITIA is at 31% of gross monthly income, stop. Step 5: Forbear principal – no interest and no amortization; amount collected at payoff. If modified unpaid principal balance equals 100% of the fair market value, stop.
