Home Affordable Refinance Program (HARP)

The Home Affordable Refinance Program has been put in place by the Obama administrations to help steer delinquent home owners away from foreclosures. The early results of the program that is believed to be able to help 4-5 million families in dire financial situations is bleak. There were 13,000 HARP refinancing cases for June. At this rate it will need 300 months or 25 years to provide help to these 4-5 million families, meaning it will not meet the aggressive goal set for June 2010.
