Under a new guideline, military members with Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac loans will now have an easier time with short sales. Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) Acting Director Edward J. DeMarco announced in a release Thursday that military homewoners who receive Permanent Change of Station (PCS) orders can sell their homes via short sale without having to go into default first. "It is in everyone's interest for the men and women serving in our armed forces to focus on the important job they are doing defending our country, rather than worry about the maintenance and leasing of a property in another jurisdiction," said DeMarco in a release.

Time is Running Out: How the Mortgage Debt Relief Act can save you!   In 2007, the Mortgage Debt Relief Act was passed in an attempt to help the millions of homeowners who, due to the housing crisis and economic crash, suddenly found themselves in danger of losing their home to foreclosure.   The act has helped many distressed homeowners find solutions to avoid foreclosure and opened up options to them that were previously unavailable.   However, the Mortgage Debt Relief Act was always intended to be a temporary solution and it is now set to expire at the end of 2012. For distressed homeowners, this means that time is limited for you to take advantage of this program.   Time is running out. But there is still a chance to change your financial direction and avoid foreclosure.   Jessica S...
