Consumer and advocacy groups are thrilled following news that the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) issued revised guidelines to its non-borrowing spouse policy, says Shannon Hicks in this week’s Reverse Focus podcast. The revised guidelines, released June 12, allow lenders to defer foreclosure for certain eligible non-borrowing spouses.
