My current home value is less than the existing loan amount. I want to refinance, please help.

Profile picture for Homeowner08873
I just simply want to refinance my existing loan amount of 300000 in one simple lower monthly payment. Unfortunately my existing home value is lower (288000) than the loan value. Also, I can not afford to pay any application or lender or refinance fee upfront and will be willing to accept that as a part of refinance package. 

Are there any options for me ?

Unfortunately you are probably going to have to wait for value to increase. The new Gov't announced "Home Affordable Refinance" program will be rolling out any day now by most lenders. You can get info by going to www.fanniemae.com or www.freddiemac.com. This program allows for refinance of up to 105% of your home value. If your value comes in just a little higher than $290K you may qualify. Let me know if you need more details.
