We need friendlier mortgage markets as many people (nearly everyone) have been struggling mortgages for the longest time.

I am happy to hear that NAR is involved in trying to point our politicians in the right direction. allowing people to refinace without regard to home value if they have good credit good employment and is gaining some traction. If lenders would allow this with no additional money out there would be very little cost if any and could prevent some walkaway situations. This money is already at risk so being concerned about loan to value seems kind of foolish. If NAR could give this a push it might help. Keep up the good work on your up hill battle. Most of the politicians have never had to qualify for a loan before so I am sure it's not easy for them to understand what is fair and safe at the same time. thanks for your time and effort It should be pointed out that Dodd or Franks the 2 men closest to the federal financial picture when everything was givin away have no business writing anything about guidlines.
