Who Is Freddie Mac
Freddie Mac is a stockholder-owned
corporation chartered by Congress to increase the supply of money that
mortgage lenders, such as commercial banks, mortgage bankers, savings
institutions and credit unions, can make available to homebuyers and
multifamily investors.
The American Dream
Freddie Mac is a shareholder-owned
company whose people are dedicated to improving the quality of life by
making the American dream of decent, accessible housing a reality. We
link Main Street to Wall Street by purchasing and securitizing home
mortgages. By doing so, we ultimately provide homeowners and renters
with lower housing costs and better access to home financing.

in America!
