Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac announced they will suspend all evictions involving foreclosed occupied single family and 2-4 unit properties with mortgages owned by the GSEs from Dec. 19, 2011-Jan. 2, 2012.
The suspension will apply only to eviction lockouts related to Freddie Mac- and Fannie Mae-owned REO properties and will not affect other pre- or post-foreclosure processes. During this period, legal and administrative proceedings for evictions may continue, but families living in foreclosed properties will be permitted to remain in the home.
