Once a loan modification is approved and the new terms are in effect, it is generally considered final. However, borrowers may be able to negotiate further modifications if their financial situation changes again. It is essential to maintain communication with the lender and explore all available options.
Improperly denied mortgage modifications: During at least a seven-year period, the bank improperly denied thousands of mortgage loan modifications, which in some cases led to Wells Fargo customers losing their homes to wrongful foreclosures.

If one of the divorcing spouses wants to keep the home, applying for a modification while the divorce is pending is possible. But if both spouses signed the original loan documents, then both spouses will usually have to sign the modification documents.
