Bills.com has announced the launch of what it touts as a quick, easy-to-use program to help homeowners determine whether they are likely candidates for the Federal Housing Administration's new FHASecure program.Andrew Housser, co-chief executive of Bills.com, said determining eligibility can be challenging given the "extensive criteria" set by the FHA. But with Bills.com's FHA Secure Check program, homeowners can complete a simple form and receive an immediate assessment of their likely eligibility, along with refinancing quotes from mortgage lenders, banks, and brokers in Bills.com's lender network. The FHASecure program, in operation since September, allows homeowners to refinance their mortgages into FHA mortgages if they have missed loan payments. FHA Secure Check can be found on the Web at http://www.bills.com/fhasecure.
