Fannie Mae Announces Eviction Moratorium for the Holidays
WASHINGTON, DC – Fannie Mae (FNMA/OTC) announced today that it will suspend evictions of foreclosed single family and 2-4 unit properties from December 19, 2012 through January 2, 2013. Legal and administrative proceedings for evictions may continue, but families living in foreclosed properties will be allowed to remain in the home during this period.
“We’re taking this step in support of families who have faced financial challenges and gone through a foreclosure,” said Terry Edwards, Executive Vice President of Credit Portfolio Management, Fannie Mae. “The holidays are a chance to be with loved ones and we want to relieve some stress at this time of year. We encourage homeowners having difficulty to reach out for help as soon as possible.”
Previously, Fannie Mae announced a temporary suspension of foreclosure sales and evictions in areas designated for individual assistance by FEMA due to Hurricane Sandy. That 90-day suspension will last through February 1, 2013.

Banks do not lend anything!!! The borrower is the lender……the bank is the borrower! The note you sign becomes the money! The banks do not have one penny of their money in any loan! The banks lie on the contract! ITS TIME TO STAND UP TO THE BANKSTERS!!!! ALL BANK LOANS ARE DONE UNDER FRAUD!!! ALL!!!! CARS, HO– USES, CREDIT CARDS!!!
It’s a PR effort, a bad one, an immoral one. This is the Banks, they are treating people inhumanely 365 days a year. It is crucial that we fight back, there is a war going on (in case no one has noticed) it continues to intensify against us.
