Many Staten Island residents are taking advantage of the Home Affordable Refinance Program

Many Staten Island homeowners, homeowners in New York, New Jersey and around the country are taking advantage of the Home Affordable Refinance Program. 

The Home Affordable Refinance Program is a part of the recently instituted program Making Home Affordable put in place by President Obama.  It provides low cost refinances for responsible home owners suffering from falling home prices and is only available for those involved in a Fannie Mae loan.

This program is designed to move you, the borrower from a high risk loan to a more stable low risk loan.  This results in you having a lower monthly payment by not oly reducing your interest but also by reducing your principle.
