Please review all your options and also use the financial experts hired by MCCS (910-451-3219) before committing to the below option. The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) recently announced that military homeowners with Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac loans who receive Permanent Change of Station (PCS) orders will be eligible to sell their homes in a short sale, even if they are current on their mortgage. Previously, many military families' only options were to maintain financial obligations on two residences, or to default on their mortgage. Under the new policy, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac will not pursue a deficiency judgment from service members with PCS orders for any property purchased on or before June 30, 2012. PCS orders often require quick moves and can create hardship for military homeowners who are underwater on their mortgages and therefore cannot sell their home without taking a loss. Military families were faced with tough situations such as living in separate homes or the risk of losing the service member's security clearance.

Service members can check the Fannie Mae www.fanniemae.com/loanlookup and the Freddie Mac www.freddiemac.com/avoidforeclosure/military_assistance.html websites to see if their loans are held by them or they can call hotlines for military homeowners at 1-877-MIL-4566 or 1-800-FREDDIE. DO NOT ENTER LIVERSEDGE FIELD DURING CONSTRUCTION

Upgrades to the track at Liversedge Field, next to Goettge Memorial Field House, have begun. It is CRUCIAL that no one walks on the track during the installation; doing so may cause irreparable damage. The off limits area is clearly marked with fencing and signage. Please stay out of this area until it has been opened for use. This track is made from the same state-of-the-art materials being used in the 2012 Olympic Games in London this summer!
