  1. Hi, my initial thought was that short sales and foreclosure deals would deminish. But, after a borrower becomes a tenant they will probably realize that they lost the property. Just because these properties are in a lease program doesn't mean they can't be purchased. I would think that if the tenant was offered an equity amount to assign their "option" or request that fannie sell the property, that investor strategies could forge ahead. A homeowner who becomes a tenant under a long distance federal program with imposed limitations may well be motivated to move out and try to buy elsewhere, especially if you have another property to sell them. So, my opinion of the net effect- not much, opportunity will still be there. Bill
