Fannie Mae will be giving homeowners loan modification help.  DU Refi Plus will allow a homeowner to refinance their existing mortgage up to 105% of what the property is worth.  If you are upside down more than this on your home you may be out of luck.  You should still talk to your bank or mortgage holder to see if you can get a loan mod from them.
