Can Underwater Homeowners Hope for Refinancing Relief?

Most major news sources reported a proposal by the current administration to make refinancing possible for homeowners who are underwater or otherwise may not qualify.  I believe that most homeowners do want to stay in their homes with affordable mortgages. This may help to reduce the number of short sales in the future which would be good for real estate values across the country.

Yahoo Blurb on Decreasing Home Prices

Home sales data released last Thursday showed sales sdeclinign 2.2% in December vs. November. 2011 was the worst year on record for new home sales in the U.S.. Prices declined 12.8% in the last year overall.

The bottom of the Vail real estate market seems to be firming up as there are plenty of renters who would like to own for less than what they currently pay in rent. The $250,000 and under market is doing very well with strong demand and even multiple offer situations. The rest of the market is not faring so well, unfortunately.
