When the first stages of discussions and talks got underway on Obama's loan modification program, many people responded with good cheer and a healthy dose of curiosity. Many politicians were uncomfortable in their division of their stance against, and with Obama's loan modification plan, that would provide incentives for lenders to help homeowners keep or modify their mortgages on their homes. There of course, are stipulations for the handing out and the usage of these loans. This includes a lending company to stimulate the housing economy by loan modifications to a homeowner deemed eligible to receive the loan. Each year the recipeints could receive up to a thousand dollars for up to five years in the maintenance of their mortgage.
Within the early stages of this loan modification plan, many people were already bailing out of their mortgages by the thousands and leaving lenders with a bad taste for helping America's homeowner at all. On the other side, with money already being given to these large corporate banks, holding companies and investment companies, most American's were already losing their faith in the companies who handle, negotiate, process and finalize their loans.
This seemed to be a standoff at first with politicians heating up the talk radio shows, firing rounds at the President from their political podiums, and hounding the House and Senate representatives with fervor over the government bailouts. This was not something that suddenly sounded just and fair for the average American, because once again, the Federal government was bailing out the bad guys.
The reports of the housing industry's downfall, came on the heels of homeowners being served with eviction notices, while still other people were ultimately defaulting on loans that had sky-rocketed to momentous proportions. This grand scheme of Obama's loan modification program came into the light as a way to use federal money, up to the tune of 9 million dollars to help lenders adjust and modify their client's home mortgages. How sad to see the Federal government bailing out these same companies that were looking for their own skins to be saved, while still closing down on the necks of the American people they were set upon to make loans to.
This was just one of Obama's first ventures into helping America get back onto its feet, and it comes hot on the heels of the occupancy of the oval office. With the promise of the American dream held in the hands of the federal government, one wonders just what the loan modification will eventually do for the American homeowner.
