Don't use Jason Smith

Buyer beware. Jason Smith gladly took my money up front but then all but disappeared. I received virtually no assistance from them in getting my mortgage re-modification. Thanks to them, I am literally in a much worse position than if I had never used them at all.

Not recommended

I was referred to Jason who initiated the process. I sent a $3650 money order for his help in getting a loan modification on my upsidedown loan and didn't hear back for 1.5 months. I had to email daily/weekly for updates to get their attention and paid an additional $400 appraisal fee to one of his... vendors to "guarantee" the loan modification. I even got convinced to pay another $1k to try a second time with no results after the first attempt produced a denial. I was told they would try a 3rd time for free and never heard back. PLEASE just work with your local loan officer to get help for free. I just completed HARP 2.0 with our local loan officer at Wells and have a much lower payment than before. You can find help from other homeowners here: http://www.loansafe.org/home-loans I keep regretting how much money I spent on these services. =(

Don't use this him

Do not waste your money. They promise you the world and say for sure they at least get you a lower % rate. They are slow to respond and then come back and say, "Sorry, you didn't qualify for program". That's it, now they don't return calls and move on to their next victims.

Competent and Efficient

I used this Law Firm to get my loan locked into a fixed rate after attempts by myself proved useless. I needed to get this done since my rate was an adjustable one and Bank of America didn’t care about this situation. My loan had a huge margin and I would not have been able to survive if rates incr...eased. This firm took all my documentation, filed any complaints needed and was able to get myself into a rate that is now fixed. I am now assured that I can make my payments now, and in the future.

Very Happy

I had a loan with BofA that I was paying $3218 per month for an interest only payment. I had tried working with BofA for just shy of 2 years and never got anything done. I hired Jason and he was able to get my payment down to $2232 per month and I am now paying principal and interest. My loan is n...ow a fixed loan and I could not be happier. When I first hired Jason, I called BofA and they kept saying they had no notes in their system that my attorney had ever contacted them despite the fact that I had faxes proving otherwise. I found out that the people at the bank I was talking to were just a debt collection department trying to get me to pay them money.
