Here?s some interesting news to share with you! California?s attorney general has requested that the Federal Housing Finance Agency suspend foreclosure sales in the state for home owners with government-backed mortgages.
Attorney General Kamala D. Harris has requested that home owners with loans backed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac get a temporary reprieve from foreclosures while housing regulators conduct reviews of whether at-risk home owners are eligible to have the amount they owe on their mortgage reduced.
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have stated in the past that they?re opposed to mortgage principal reductions. The FHFA, which regulates Fannie and Freddie, has said that any such program would cost taxpayers $100 billion.
More than half a million Californians have lost their home to foreclosure since 2008. What?s more, another half a million are in foreclosure or at ?imminent? risk this year. Fannie and Freddie guarantee or own more than 60 percent of mortgages in California.
