The Treasury also announced that it will be paying higher financial incentives to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to forgive principals, and ease the program guidelines so that homes occupied by renters are also now eligible for the program. It is widely anticipated that since HAFA is part of HAMP that a similar extension will be announced to the program.
What does this mean to a homeowner who needs to short sale their home?
More home owners who are struggling to pay their mortgage will now have more time to take advantage of HAMP. Exactly how many more homeowners these changes will impact is considered small in relation to the overall problem. Howwever, a wider number of homeowners than before will meet the criteria guidelines.
