		<description>Karen,

FHA and VA loans do not qualify for HAFA.  HAFA is actually very closely based on the FHA Pre-Foreclosure sale program which has been around for decades.

As for HAFA, there are 3 versions of HAFA;

1. Fannie Mae has their own version
2. Freddie Mac has their own version
3. The Treasury version which applies to all other loan types, investors and servicers that are participating in the program.

The changes I wrote about apply to the Treasury version only.  Fannie and Freddie have not made any changes to their program guidelines in a very long time while the Treasury version has been constantly evolving.

Hope that clears that up for you.</description>

		<description>Sean you speicify these changes only apply to NON fnma or freddiemac loans.  I cannot find that info anywhere.  In fact it seems that FHA and VA do not yet qualify for HAFA but Freddie Mac and FNMA loans can if they meet the additional criteria.  I am trying to stay up to date please advise.
