Pandering to unqualified buyers with targeted loan programs does not help the buyers. It just enables them to go through the torture of losing a house to foreclosure, further damaging their credit and creating a liability for the agencies.
To expand housing opportunities the agencies should address the hole on the non-owner financing market that exists for 5 to 9 unit buildings. Offering fixed rate programs for these smaller "mom and pop" apartment owners will stabilize the housing market and lessen the need for rent increases when adjustable rates increase.
