Half a million down, many more to go…

Over a half a million homeowners have had their mortgages modified under the plan President Barack Obama began earlier this year. Treasury Secretary, Timothy Geithner said, “Unaffordable mortgages are now being modified at a pace faster than homes are being sold in foreclosure proceedings.” He also went on to say that 40% of the 1.2 million homeowners deemed eligible for loan modifications under the Obama plan have received them.

This is still a taxing process for many homeowners who still find themselves nearing foreclosure. So, although the administration celebrates this milestone they are still very aware that there’s much more to be done.
