..so a "refi" is gonna be real hard to get.

Did anyone call the current mortgage company and see if they have any programs to alter terms, etc.? Most of them do now. Plus I thought there might be some federal programs out there. Do some googling, maybe start at the FHA.

The current mortgage company gave us the names of the refinancing companies and said they would have no problems helping us. I have perfect credit, via the credit score the refinancing people just gave me March 17. I was going to be the co-signer for the refinancing. Thanks for the links tho, I will show them to my mother.
