DUTY TO SERVE: OVERVIEW
2
• Under the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have a Duty to Serve three underserved markets – manufactured housing, affordable housing preservation, and rural housing – in a safe and sound manner for residential properties that serve very low-, low-, and moderate-income families.
• After issuing a proposed rule in December 2015, FHFA issued a final rule on December 13, 2016 to implement the Duty to Serve requirements.
• FHFA’s final rule requires the Enterprises to develop three-year Underserved Markets Plans.
• On May 8, 2017, FHFA requested public input on the Enterprises proposed Plans. The public had 60 days to provide their input on the proposals, until July 10, 2017.
• Each Enterprise updated their Underserved Markets Plan incorporating both public input and FHFA feedback. These revised Plans were submitted on September 24.
