Stay Safe During the Holidays! Security Tips

Stay Safe During the Holidays: 3 Security Tips for the Season The holidays are an ideal time to celebrate with family and friends, but unfortunately, they are also a time when greater numbers of burglaries and break-ins occur. While we are busy shopping and attending holiday parties, or out of town visiting with family, our homes are prime targets for break-ins. The following tips can help you keep your home and its contents safe this holiday season. 1. Do not neglect basic security measures. Lock your doors and windows even when you are at home, and if you do not already have deadbolts on your doors, have them installed. Although most burglars prefer to enter an unoccupied home to avoid getting caught in the act, a break-in can happen when you are sleeping.

Mortgage defaulters may have to face the debt collectors now...

From Information, Inc WASHINGTON – Oct. 16, 2013 – Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have stepped up their program to collect unpaid mortgage debt from “strategic defaulters” – underwater homeowners who skipped out on their mortgage even though they had the ability to pay. If a home is sold at foreclosure but the proceeds don’t cover the outstanding balance of the homeowner’s loan, the mortgage giants can pursue judgments against the homeowner forcing him or her to pay the deficiency. And the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) that regulates Fannie and Freddie is pushing them to step up their efforts. FHFA says Fannie and Freddie haven’t been aggressive enough going after strategic defaulters; and, according to the inspector general, the mortgage giants could cut their losses by making it a priority – billions of dollars, the office says. So far, the office says it has identified about 58,000 foreclosures that Freddie Mac did not refer for collection – and estimated defic...
