Fannie Mae is implementing the Deed for Lease instead of Foreclosures

Fannie Mae is implementing the Deed for Lease instead of Foreclosures

FANNIE MAE NEWS RELEASE - September 5, 2009

WASHINGTON, DC -- Fannie Mae (FNM/NYSE) is implementing the Deed for LeaseTM Program under which qualifying homeowners facing foreclosure will be able to remain in their homes by signing a lease in connection with the voluntary transfer of the property deed back to the lender.

"The Deed for Lease Program provides an additional option for qualifying homeowners who are facing foreclosure and are not eligible for modifications," said Jay Ryan, Vice President of Fannie Mae. "This new program helps eliminate some of the uncertainty of foreclosure, keeps families and tenants in their homes during a transitional period, and helps to stabilize neighborhoods and communities."

The new program is designed for borrowers who do not qualify for or have not been able to sustain other loan-workout solutions, such as a modification. Under Deed for Lease, borrowers transfer their property to the lender by completing a deed in lieu of foreclosure, and then lease back the house at a market rate.

To participate in the program, borrowers must live in the home as their primary residence and must be released from any subordinate liens on the property. Tenants of borrowers in this circumstance may also be eligible for leases under the program. Borrowers or tenants interested in a lease must be able to document that the new market rental rate is no more than 31% of their gross income.

Leases under the new program may be up to 12 months, with the possibility of term renewal or month-to-month extensions after that period. A Deed for Lease property that is subsequently sold includes an assignment of the lease to the buyer.

For additional information about the Deed for Lease Program, including full details on program eligibility, please review the Guide Announcement on www.efanniemae.com.

Senate Passes Tax Credit Extension

Tax Credit Extended By Senate
for First Time Home Buyers
It looks like the bill is very getting close to the President's desk.

As of Wednesday November 4, 2009 the Senate officially passed the extension of the first time home buyer tax credit. The bill will now move into the House, and then to the President's desk for a signature.

The Senate has passed a 6 months extension on the first time home buyer tax credit of $8,000. Hopefully this extension will encourage more people to buy homes and help the housing industry bounce back quicker.

There is an $800,000 maximum for the purchase price of the home, and 2 income caps which have been set.

  • First, if the couple makes a joint income of $225,000 or higher they will not be eligible for the first time buyer credit, and
  • if an individual makes an income of $125,000 or higher they will not be eligible for the credit.

The senate bill also provides a new $6,500 tax break for existing homeowners who want to move up to a new home, as long as they have lived in their current residence for five consecutive years..

This bill is going to cost $10 billion just for the home buyer tax credit. With the current deficit as a country we cannot afford this bill. However, in order for our economy to have any hope of restoration it appears to be necessary.
