What to do

AWACS interpretation · not source language

What to review: Review the adopted Fannie Mae updates for MPF Xtra deliveries regarding condo project eligibility, property insurance, manufactured housing reviews, and authorized user or third-party debt exclusions.

QC implications

  • Quality control should evaluate manufactured home files in condo or PUD projects to ensure compliance with Fannie Mae streamlined project criteria.
  • Quality control should sample DTI calculations to confirm proper treatment of authorized user tradelines and exclusions for debts paid by third parties.
