		<description>How does anyone know what their house is currently worth in this economy? Foreclosed properties in our area can be had for as little as $60,000. We bought when the market was high in 2007. So our $550,000 purchase price is worth ? in 2011. Our  equity is gone and we are 10 years away from retirement. So why doesn&#039;t everyone qualify for a refinance? I&#039;m not sure my house is now worth as much as the mortgage due! KittyKat55</description>

		<description>Yeah this plan has raised some issues with us over here at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.refinancingcondo.com&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://www.refinancingcondo.com&lt;/a&gt;  I can not believe the disregard for some of the hardest hit homeowners. It is risky to refinance someone with 90% LTV so why not just cover pretty much everyone and offer near 100% refinance options for people in the worst effected areas. Crazy!</description>

		<description>I think there are valid arguments on both side about this government plan. Will it raise the budget deficit? Probably. Will it help? That’s a good question. I think economies go through cycles and this might be one of them.

		<description>It appears aimed at the individuals that Franks and Obama and Acorn forced Fannie and Freddie to issue to those that could not afford the loans. Where is this money coming from? Where did Congress authorize this spending? Just a few details I am not understanding. Doesn&#039;t Congress control spending?</description>

		<description>I can explain this: the government doesn&#039;t want to dole out money to homeowners who are likely to default, which is what you would expect with mortgages that are seriously underwater.</description>
