For loan modification purposes,how do I convince my lenderwhich is my primary residence when I live in 2 properties?
Old mobile home where my wife lives,but because of allergies I also live in another place. I have spent most of my time in the second property, even though the utilities are off (except for water). I use a portable propane heater and propane for the stove. I also position my RV next to the house. I’m registered to vote there, drivers license shows second property address, attend church and work real estate there. I have lived in the second property for 17 years. Unless I can show it as primary residense and get the loan modification, it will go into foreclosure. I am 20 year retired Navy pilot, and thew second property is where my roots are.
