GSEs Report Foreclosure Increase
Fannie Mae is my favorite seller these days. These homes are sold "as is" just like short sales or other bank owned homes and a home inspection is recommened. Fannie Mae will contribute to the buyers closing costs and usually close in 50 days.
In a recent article released by DSNews.com, Fannie and Freddie are starting to initiate foreclosures at a quicker pace. Between the months of May and June GSE-initiated foreclosures rose 21 percent.
This is said to be due mostly to HAMP program cancellations from initial trial plans. Most of these loans were already more than six months delinquent when their HAMP modification began. In fact, more HAMP modifications have been cancelled than have achieved permanent status.
With the swell of GSE foreclosures in the near future, we can expect to see a greater number of Fannie Mae owned homes placed in the company's HomePath program.
