If you have a FHA mortgage you may still be able to refinance even though your home value has fallen. FHA does streamline refinances. Which means that you may be able to refinance your home without getting an appraisal. What you need to have is good credit for the last year. You may be able to have a few credit blemishes. Take the time and see a mortgage person or Loan officer to see if you qualify.
Too many people assume they can not refi. Take the time and go to a mortgage broker. They usually don't charge to review your situation. The biggest thing is don't be sucked into a higher rate or higher payment. Do not pay high fees or an application fee. There is no sense in giving somebody an application fee if it can not be done. There are many lenders that do not charge an application fee. You can find out whether you can refinance without paying a fee.
There are many options that may be available to you. One that many people are not taking advantage of is calling your existing lender. Call your existing lender to see if they will make your adjustable rate mortgage into a fixed rate mortgage. Some lenders are willing to do that so you do not go into foreclosure.
