What about those individuals who were first time homebuyers until they got in an Adjustable Rate Mortgage (ARM). I beleive there are people like my wife and I, who can afford an afforable monthly home mortgage of 1100 - 1700 per mo. But when the ARM continued to adjust to 2400=2900 per month we lost our home. Just three years prior we would have qualified for the current home buyer program. Thank God we are still employed and hope to own a home one day. It would be helpfule if we could qualify as first time home buyers again.  amberc3
