FEDS: Short-selling America

This is our home. We took it as a house, my husband brush painted the whole outside. We put in hardwood flooring, painted inside and rejuvenated the landscape. It has a new roof, dishwasher and water heater.

We had a $212K loan that was sold to Green Tree. The tax value of the home is now at $152K. The face of money is only figures. So why should a deal seeker get it? Just give us that same short sale and even the playing field. Why should the faces have to change when the face of money stays the same?

Game rules change all the time. Break an arm, be in an auto accident — life’s rules change. It is time to change the rules and get the federal government out of the deal.

Don’t SHORT SELL AMERICA and God can bless us again.

F-fixed income

O-offer of loan modification paperwork eternal

R-retired, veteran

E-even the playing field

C-can’t buy back at short sale price

L-lose lifelong high credit rating

O-ousted from house made into home

S-short sale to deal seeker

E-earth ending 12-21-2012

Go to your nearest government office with protest sign; show your family has been touched by foreclosure. Be on the courthouse steps 12-21-2012, noon.
