In an assessment from the Special Inspector General for the troubled \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Troubled Asset Relief Program,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d fully 46 percent of homeowners who got 2009 loan modifications from the Home Affordable Modification Program have now re-defaulted on those loans. One might ask oneself \u00e2\u20ac\u0153When will we ever learn?\u00e2\u20ac\u009d It amounts to \u00e2\u20ac\u0153tough love\u00e2\u20ac\u009d to know where to draw the line between helping those who can reasonably take on a mortgage and those who should not.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153This is a program where there\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not enough people being helped,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Christy Romero, special inspector general for SIGTARP, told Reuters. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Ultimately, the Treasury needs to make good on its promise that TARP is not just a bailout for the largest financial institutions but it will also help bailout homeowners.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d That is certainly how it seems to have worked out so far. Those who helped cause the problem get a big fat bailout and those who need the help get a long list of forms to fill out and long lines to stand in.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153There will always be an inherent risk of homeowner re-default rate in a program like this given the very difficult circumstances that people who need modifications face,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d the official said. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153The longer they are in there, the less likely they are to re-default.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d One might also add, the more we apply sound criteria to determine who should be encouraged to pursue a loan in the first place, the less likely they are to default.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Exactly why people are falling out of HAMP isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t well understood by Treasury,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d said Romero. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153If re-defaults are happening at an alarming rate, then you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve got to stop that and change the program somehow where you stop the trend.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Unfortunately, this is one of the problems of a program being administered by a large, bloated bureaucracy that can in now way \u00e2\u20ac\u0153turn on a dime.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Sometimes it can not turn at all. It seems to take years just to figure out if there even is a problem let alone what to do about it.<\/p>\n
