Such speciIic inIormationwhether it currently exists or is subsequently createdand the exhibits reIerenced in the Guide now or later are legally a part oI this Guide. Conceptual Organization Conceptually, this Guide covers the standard requirements Ior servicing all Fannie Mae-owned or Fannie Mae-securitized one- to Iour-unit mortgage loans. In developing the Guide, Fannie Mae considered the various interrelationships that have an eIIect on how a particular requirement should be interpreted or on how a speciIic procedure should be implemented, recognizing that the interrelationships do not always conIorm to hard and Iast rules. Content Organization This Guide is organized into 12 parts; each part is summarized below: - Part I Lender Relationships reIerences the process Ior becoming a Fannie Mae-approved servicer oI residential home mortgage loans, describes the terms oI the servicer`s contractual relationship with Fannie Mae, discusses the ongoing obligations a servicer must meet to maintain its eligibility as a Fannie Mae-approved servicer, and deIines a servicer`s general business obligations. - Part II Mortgage and Property Insurance discusses a servicer`s responsibility Ior ensuring that any mortgage insurance, hazard or Ilood insurance, or any special insurance coverages Fannie Mae requires are maintained in a way that will at all times protect Fannie Mae`s interest in the mortgages serviced Ior Fannie Mae. - Part III General Servicing Functions discusses the general administrative Iunctions involved in servicing Iirst and second mortgage loans that occur on an ongoing basis, as well as a Iew Iunctions that are unique to a particular type oI mortgage loan or to a special, nonrecurring circumstance. These Iunctions may begin when mortgage loan payment records are established Ior a new mortgage loan and oIten continue until a mortgage loan is paid oII, repurchased, or otherwise removed Irom Fannie Mae`s records. Foreword March 14, 2012 Page vi - Part IV Special Adjustable-Rate Mortgage Loan Functions discusses those special loan administration Iunctions related to the required periodic monthly payment and interest rate changes Ior adjustable-rate mortgages (ARMs) and graduated-payment adjustable-rate mortgages (GPARMs). - Part V Special Reverse Mortgage Loan Functions the content oI this part can be Iound in the Fannie Mae Reverse Mortgage Loan Servicing Manual on eFannieMae.com. - Part VI Mortgage Loan Removals or Reclassifications discusses the servicer`s responsibilities when a mortgage is removed Irom Fannie Mae`s accounting records or an MBS pool because the borrower pays it oII, the servicer or the originating lender repurchases it, Fannie Mae automatically reclassiIies it as a portIolio mortgage (in order to remove a delinquent mortgage Irom an MBS pool), or Fannie Mae authorizes the servicer to assign it to HUD (under special assignment procedures available Ior certain FHA Section 221 mortgages). - Part VII Delinquency Management and Default Prevention describes Fannie Mae`s requirements and procedures Ior servicing whole mortgage loans, participation pool mortgage loans, and MBS mortgage loans Irom the time they Iirst become delinquent or deIault is deemed to be reasonably Ioreseeable (imminent) through the development oI special relieI measures or Ioreclosure prevention alternatives to avoid Ioreclosure proceedings. - Part VIII Foreclosures, Conveyances and Claims, and Acquired Properties describes Fannie Mae`s requirements and procedures Ior conducting Ioreclosure proceedings, conveying properties to the insurer or guarantor, Iiling claims under the insurance or guaranty contract, and disposing oI acquired properties that Fannie Mae holds Ior sale. It does not address any special requirements that may have been imposed under the terms oI a negotiated purchase transaction. The servicer is responsible Ior taking all steps necessary to ensure that the terms oI a negotiated contract are Iollowed. - Part IX Custodial and Remittance Accounting discusses the diIIerent accounting Iunctions that relate to the Iinancial aspects oI Foreword March 14, 2012 Page vii servicing mortgage loans that are in either a Iirst- or second-lien position. These Iunctions are continuing processes Irom the time the mortgage loan is closed until it is liquidated. - Part X Fannie Mae Investor Reporting System discusses Fannie Mae`s general requirements Ior the mortgage accounting system it uses Ior reporting on the status oI regularly amortizing one- to Iour-unit mortgages it either holds in its portIolio or has pooled to back an MBS issue. It explains the turnaround documents Fannie Mae provides to the servicer, procedures Ior correcting reporting errors, the transactions the servicer must report to Fannie Mae, and any special requirements Fannie Mae has Ior speciIic remittance types. - Part XI Fannie Mae Reverse Mortgage Reporting System the contents oI this part can be Iound in the Fannie Mae Reverse Mortgage Loan Servicing Manual on eFannieMae.com. - Part XII Glossary and Table of Acronyms and Abbreviations deIines terms and phrases used throughout the Guide.
