What to do

AWACS interpretation · not source language

What to review: Review the enhanced automated underwriting jumbo guidelines permitting higher loan amounts, financing ratios up to 89.99 percent, decreased credit score and reserve thresholds, and updated debt-to-income limits.

QC implications

  • Sample jumbo automated underwriting loans to verify that debt-to-income ratios comply with the caps of 49.99 percent for financing at or below 80 percent loan-to-value and 38 percent for financing above 80 percent loan-to-value.
  • Test eligible jumbo files utilizing increased financing ratios to ensure loan-to-value and combined loan-to-value ratios do not exceed 89.99 percent.
  • Review approved originations applying the reduced credit score, lowered post-closing reserve, and expanded loan amount criteria to ensure adherence to product guidelines.
