WSJ Your Money Briefing · Mortgage Forbearance Safety Net Misses One Million Borrowers · 17 Sep 2020 podcast

An alarming number of Americans are in danger of losing their homes, despite a program that lets them delay their mortgage payments. voice-verified

Our reporter Andrew Ackerman will explain forbearance, what it is, how it works, and why so many homeowners in need aren't taking advantage of it. voice-verified

That's after the break. voice-verified

Early on in the pandemic, Congress set up a program to protect homeowners with mortgages from losing their homes. voice-verified

But about a million borrowers have fallen through this safety net. voice-verified

Missed payments and late fees are putting them at greater risk, and that's further heightening fears of an eviction and foreclosure crisis. voice-verified
