Fannie Mae announced December 3, 2012 that legal and administrative proceedings for evictions may continue, but families living in foreclosed properties will be allowed to remain in the home during the holidays. Evictions of foreclosed single family and 2-4 unit properties will be halted from December 19, 2012 through January 2, 2013.
"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.
