Seattle Foreclosure: Whitehouse Trying to Step in and Help With Adjusting Mortgages

By Courtney Cooper, December 5, 2007 12:57 pm

Seattle has seen some homeowners go into foreclosure based on their inability to pay their mortgages once the rates adjusted. Seattle lenders have tried their best to help and refinance these borrowers, but in some cases the borrowers are no longer qualifying under stricter guidelines. According to MSNBC.com, it was just announced that the Whitehouse is going to step in and help the lending industry hold rates steady on some of upcoming adjusting mortgages. Bush has a plan apparently to freeze some of these upcoming adjustments for a period of five years in an effort to slow down the flow of foreclosures in to the Seattle real estate market as well as the rest of the nation.

The relief comes for those who got their loan anytime from the beginning of 2005 to July 30th of 2007 with rates set to adjust between January 1st of 2008 and July 31st of 2010. Unfortunately, the relief does not help some people I have already talked to who fit just outside those parameters, but it’s a start.
