9. precisely
cut the rate and extend the term. people will wind up paying more in interest, but they get to stay in the homes they otherwise could not afford. cramming down the principle unjustly rewards those who (most often knowingly) bit off more house than they could afford to chew. no sense in rewarding that. keep the house, extend the loan term, and reduce the interest rate correspondingly.
