Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods, and computer program products for modifying the terms of a loan and for providing for a shared appreciation loan program. For example, in one embodiment the amount owed on an existing HELOC is split into two portions. A qualifying borrower can defer the obligation to pay interest and payments on a portion of the HELOC in exchange for sharing up to 50% of the future appreciation in the real property that serves as the underlying security for the HELOC. This mortgage plan can provide an incentive for the borrower to remain in the home since the borrower may be able to share in the appreciation of the home even if the home never appreciates beyond the full amount owed on the home, while at the same time preserving the borrower's financial commitment rating and reducing the borrower's monthly payment.

Shared appreciation loan modification system and method

Embodiments of the present invention relate to methods and apparatuses for implementing, in connection with a HELOC account, a loan management tool. In some embodiments, the method includes: storing information relating to a loan account associated with a borrower, segmenting the loan account into one or more spend categories, and allocating purchases and payments, or portions thereof, made by the borrower to at least one of the one or more spend categories. In addition, the method may further include receiving from the borrower an input and calculating, based on the input, an output, wherein the output comprises at least one of the anticipated payoff date, the monthly payment amount, and the total saved interest.

Loan management tool

Embodiments of the present invention relate to methods and apparatuses for implementing, in connection with a loan account, a loan management tool. In some embodiments, the method includes: storing information relating to a loan account associated with a borrower in a storage device, wherein a first interest rate is associated with the loan account, segmenting the loan account into at least a first spend category, and associating a second interest rate with the first spend category, wherein the second interest rate is different from the first interest rate. The method may also include receiving a payment comprising a first portion based on the first interest rate and a second portion based on the second interest rate, and applying a first portion of the payment to reducing a balance of the first spend category. The systems and methods of the present invention are used in connection with a HELOC account.
