Reports are pouring in that the current Presidential administration is planning more action to strengthen the crippled U.S. housing market. Talks are focusing on several different options the Obama White House could take, but all parties agree, the plan must be tight. Here are a couple of the rumors flying around.
A first proposal would provide for million of government-backed mortgage homeowners to refinance their homes at today's substantially lower interest rates, which sit around 4 percent. Refinancing may sound like a sound proposal because of course it would immediately lower housing payments. But banks and those invested in mortgage-backed securities are sure to balk at such a plan, which the Administration should brace for. The second proposal would include a rental agreement for foreclosed homeowners to help them stay in their homes even if they lose the dwelling in foreclosure.
The market is certainly in need of a fresh breath of air, and with the housing market dwindling nearly one in five homeowners is upside down on their home. With the 2012 election year just around the corner, the Administration definitely has an interest in helping out the masses that are facing financial trouble largely due to the housing market.
There's a lot of time still until the market will see this type of relief, but it could be sooner than later given the short time until Election Day.
