Freddie Mac posts $2.5 billion 3Q loss, asks for another $100 million

When will this nonsense STOP!  How much of those losses are from NOT approving a fair offer on a short sale?   They refuse the short sale, spend the money to foreclose, spend money maintaining and repairing the house and then they list it for far less than they could have sold it for.

I can't STAND when a homeowner says the loan is backed by Freddie or Fannie. I know it'll be an uphill battle from that point forward. (sigh) They caused a TON of this mess and can't seem to work themselves out of it. I see more roadblocks than go signs.
Yup got my Freddie mac deal giving me hell still. It is sad when you talk to the top and she flat out says she doesn't care "let it foreclose, were being more than reasonable". Hoping that I can salvage mine (buyers gave me till Monday). But we may just be lumped in their loss next Q.
Sounds like you need to call your senators, congress, gov to let them know what these idiots are doing

I could not agree more Freddie needs to stop asking for our Tax money particularly if it going to continue to make STUPID decision’s. I am not asking them to give away their homes but accept what fair market is. They need to fail already.
My experience has been that Fannie and Freddie backed loans are commonly serviced by smaller companies, and they tend to be less than willing to participate in short sales. They would rather foreclose, take the $$ from insurance held against the loan, and come out ahead on the deal while selling as a bank owned.
