The...This is one of these many false silly rumors.<br /><br />The HAMP program does not require anyone be late. You just have to show in "imminent risk" for default. <br /><br />The parallel foreclosures are the banks idea that they can get away with as upset Dem's were so against in 2009 congressional hearings. How silly and ignorant to blame it on Obama.<br /><br />Obama and Treasury did a huge effort in 2009 to get the banks to do HAMP modifications. They sent in the swat teams to the servicers, the required monthly progress reports tying to shame banks doing poorly (they all are) and the meeting at the White House afterwards the bankers at press conference saying how they would do better with HAMP.<br /><br />The 4 Congressional Oversight hearings with the D's so upset and citing so many abuses of the banks and demanding the banks follow the HAMP directives. <br /><br />But banks make far more money on foreclosures than modifications and do all they can to deny including lies, losing paperwork sent in 10 times etc.<br /><br />And the Republican spin is HAMP is a waste since the banks are doing so many inhouse modifications (with higher default rates since higher payments and too few).<br /><br />The problem is there is no way to enforce the HAMP directives since they were forced on banks as part of TARP. HAMP needs to be a law but of course the party of no blocks anything that doesn't enrich the banks, Wall STreet, and the most wealthy and the Dems can do nothing because they can't get 60 votes to unless they get 1 or 2 R's to come over.<br /><br />Lets put blame where it belongs not more silly foolish lies the Tea party and Republicans are so known for.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07467895817134034847noreply@blogger.com
