There are few things as depressing as having your house taken away from you on Christmas Eve, so the people at Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae are issuing a brief moratorium on evicting people from foreclosed properties during the holiday season.
In a statement on its site, F.Mac said it won’t be evicting anyone from any occupied single family and 2-4 unit properties with Freddie Mac mortgages between Dec. 20 and Jan. 3.
“If the property is occupied, our foreclosure attorneys will suspend the eviction to provide a greater measure of certainty to families during the holidays,” said a biggie at Freddie.
While Fannie Mae hasn’t announced specific dates, it has confirmed to the Associated Press that it will be calling for a similar break.
