Fannie Mae is Cracking Down on Strategic Defaulters

Fed up with the growing trend of strategic defaulting, the government-run mortgage company Fannie Mae stated it will not back new loans for those borrowers for seven years.
Furthermore, Fannie also indicated it would instruct lenders to sue homeowners who abandon properties for the unpaid mortgage balances.
Fannie is hoping this new stance will discourage people from walking away.
Do you think this will be effective?
