WASHINGTON, DC — (Marketwire) — 12/04/12 — The Federal Government has ramped up outreach for the Independent Foreclosure Review (IFR) program in an effort to reach millions of homeowners who were harmed through foreclosure actions in 2009 & 2010 and could be eligible for a free, third party review of their foreclosure files.
National leaders, including Marc Morial, President & CEO of the National Urban League and leading advocates from National Council of La Raza, HomeFree-USA, NeighborWorks America, Homeownership Preservation Foundation & more, have joined the effort to reach millions of Americans through Public Service Announcements, mailings, print advertising and broadcast media outlets. *Here-s the link to Marc Morial-s TV Public Service Announcement . If you like this PSA and would like to air it, please contact Linda Marson and we will get the PSA to you in the requested format.
The Independent Foreclosure Review gives eligible homeowners an opportunity to have their files reviewed for errors, at no charge. If mistakes are found, homeowners may be eligible for compensation up to $125,000 plus equity, or other remedy.
Roughly 4.5 million homeowners may be eligible to take advantage of this program, but they need to know about it and apply online or request an application by phone 1-855-778-0855 before the program ends on December 31st, 2012.
