California Debt Blog: The Foreclosure Rescue Mirage

August 26, 2009 by Jonathan Stein

Andy Kroll over at Mother Jones has written an excellent article on the foreclosure crisis. Key from the article:

Industry experts are now questioning how many of the program’s estimated 235,000 modifications will actually benefit homeowners in the long term, and say that homeowners clamoring to participate in HAMP have created an industrywide logjam for mortgage servicers, resulting in substantial delays and backed-up customer service support. The Treasury’s first servicer performance report, covering March to July 2009, found that servicers had offered modifications to just 15 percent of eligible delinquent homeowners, and initiated them for just 9 percent of that group.

This article is a must read for anyone dealing with the foreclosure crisis.
