They say a picture is worth a 1,000 words. Well, here's one about underwater properties.
An "underwater" property is one where the value of the property is 75% less than the amount of the mortgage on it.
According to a recent report NJ.COM, hundreds of thousands of NJ homeowners find themselves in this situation.
What's to be done. Unlike Mrs. Hobbs' request above, there will be no downward adjustment to the monthly mortgage bill. But there are programs, Federally-backed, that allow the lender to modify mortgage the mortgage balance and restructure the loan in ways that provide some sort of relief to the homeowner.
