More and more is coming out about the U.S. government trial project to sell large pools of single-family homes that Fannie Mae currently owns.  The pilot program will be offering 2,500, if successful Freddie & Fannie have more than 200,000 foreclosed homes they could release.  What is a concern are the reports that these pools have a potentially discounted to 20% to 40% prevailing market prices. This could really have an adverse effect to the local real estate prices thus prolonging the recovery. 

A side bar, doesn’t this actually move the real property assets to the top 1%?  Would it be better to release these homes in a controlled manner making them available to all buyers?
