Home Mortgage Relief Law Aims to Aid Homeowners
President Roosevelt catalyzes a new Home Owners Loan Corporation with a $200 million government role to assist homeowners with mortgages under 80 percent of value. The plan enables exchange of mortgages for 18 year bonds at 4 percent, federal interest guarantees, 16 year payoff, and potential six percent loans up to 15 years for holders unable to meet payments. County agents oversee appraisals, tax and repair support, and possible federal savings and loan establishments.
