It’s not quite “Hi, I’m from the government and I’m here to help.”
But it’s along those lines.
Freddie Mac, the government-controlled mortgage giant, plans to send people out to knock on the doors of borrowers who might qualify for a loan modification under President Obama’s Making Home Affordable program but haven’t completed the paperwork.
The plan, which you can read about here, is to work one-on-one with people who didn’t respond to letters or phone calls from their mortgage servicers, or who need to provide more information to launch their three-month trial periods under the federal loan-mod scheme.
Could one of those people knock on my door? I need benn trying to get help and cannot find anyone who seems to know what they are doing.
