'Height of insanity:' Trump ends VA mortgage rescue program; 15,000 veterans face higher payments, 700 see

After the discontinuation of the Veterans Affairs Servicing Purchase program, many veterans are encountering significantly higher mortgage payments. Over 15,000 veterans have experienced payment increases of at least $150 due to loan modifications. More than 700 veterans have reported payment hikes exceeding $1,000 monthly, creating financial distress. The decision to end the program has left veterans with fewer options to manage their mortgages.
