Conventional adjustable mortgage (ARM) Loan modification,collection,foreclosure Florida

I currently have a mortgage with BB & T ( initially - Bank ). The mortgage is on a home I purchased in 2005 for at the time was my Primary residence. We have since converted this to a rental property as the home was no longer able to accommodate our growing family, and we were unable to sell due to market conditions. The mortgage is what would now be considered a predatory loan ( - Interest only 1st 10 years ). In the past month the payment has ballooned as the loan has modified to its amortization stage the payment has increase by more than doubled what is was during its Interest only Phase from $480.00 per month to over $1100.00 per month. -/-/- anticipating this change I reached out to BB & T to see if they were able to work with us on a refinance or loan modification. We were told we were unable to refinance due to the currently loan to value of approximately 130 %, the loan was not qualified for the HARP program as it is not backed by - or - - ( we are told it is a BB & T/- loan ). In -/-/- we proceeded with the Modification/loss mitigation request as we were told this was our only option. After countless hours of works and endless documentation requests over almost 4 months we were told we had been declined for modification to a 30yr fixed program, leaving us only - options keep making a payment we can not afford or let the home go into foreclosure. The reason for decline was that our current rents received cover mortgage payment. What BB & T failed to account for while delivering this decision is that there are Property Taxes, Home Owners Insurance & HOA Fees tied to this property that also require monthly payments. When factoring in these amounts we are at a significant loss.
