Important Fannie Mae Update Regarding Foreclosures

It looks like Fannie Mae is tightening up on people who go through foreclosure, especially strategic foreclosures.
 
1. Fannie is going to a 7 year window before they will lend to someone who has had a foreclosure, unless they can document extenuating circumstances.
 
2. Freddie Mac is currently 5 years and will be evaluating their policy in lieu of Fannie Mae's decision.
 
3. FHA is presently 3 years and there is a bill in congress that wants a Life Time ban on people who default on FHA loans.

Please contact us if you are having difficult making those mortgage payments as there are far better solutions than foreclosure.
