What should I know about Fannie??

[Adam Scheetz]

I'm looking at properties in the Jacksonville, FL/North FL area. I'm coming across Fannie Mae/Home Path properties. I've never really dealt with them. I've heard of Fannie & Freddie on some forums and some BP podcasts but never really dug into or heard extensively about Fannie Mae properties. Can anyone offer insight, resources, or educational material to get me up to speed on what it is? What to know about them? Good or Bad investment idea? 

Thanks In advance!
