Finally, a Foreclosure Prevention Program That Makes Sense!

A local community bank would then refinance the mortgage for about 70 percent of the home’s fair market value. . . The homeowner’s monthly housing costs potentially could be halved. . .
What a common-sense idea! “Duh, it’s about time someone is thinking right in this foreclosure mess!”
