Mortgage Modifications Get Some Real Help

Since California passed its new law mandating how lawyers can be paid for helping with mortgage modifications, Californians are finding it difficult to get assistance.

Charles Martin used his 19 months of fighting for a mortgage modification for his own home in California to learn the ropes and now helps others, not only in California, make their way through the maze of obstacles put up by the banks.

Martin started working on his mortgage modification in June 2009. He learned a lot along the way and made a lot of good contacts with key people not only in his bank, but in other banks as he tried to help others. He thought the more he "paid it forward" by helping others, he may finally get a successful mortgage modification himself.
