FNMA Servicing Guide A2-7-01 — Concurrent Servicing Transfers

fnma-svc-a2-7-01

FNMA Servicing Guide A2-7-01 governs concurrent servicing transfers — when a seller transfers servicing rights to a Fannie Mae-approved servicer at the same time as loan delivery. This is an "automatic" transfer not requiring prior FNMA approval, but carries specific notification, eligibility, and contractual-relationship requirements. Fills FNMA Servicing A2-7 chapter gap.

    section: FNMA Servicing Guide A2-7-01 — Transferee servicer must meet FNMA eligibility criteria
    description: |
      In a concurrent servicing transfer (transfer of servicing concurrent
      with loan delivery), the transferee servicer must meet Fannie Mae's
      eligibility criteria that apply to a seller/servicer that becomes
      Fannie Mae's servicer in a post-delivery transfer of servicing per
      A2-7-03. [LENDER] (whether as transferring seller or transferee
      servicer) shall confirm transferee FNMA eligibility before
      executing the concurrent transfer.
    type: do
    audit_question: For every concurrent servicing transfer [LENDER] participated in, can [LENDER] evidence pre-transfer documentation that the transferee servicer met FNMA's A2-7-03 post-delivery transferee-eligibility criteria?
    program_review: Does the program ensure that in a concurrent servicing transfer the transferee servicer is confirmed to meet FNMA's A2-7-03 post-delivery transferee-eligibility criteria before the transfer executes?
    file_review: For concurrent transfers, confirm pre-transfer documentation that the transferee met the A2-7-03 eligibility criteria.

    description: |
      When [LENDER] (as mortgage loan seller) transfers servicing
      concurrent with delivery — i.e., where [LENDER] was servicing the
      mortgage loans prior to delivery and will not be servicing them
      after delivery — [LENDER] shall notify Fannie Mae at the time of
      mortgage loan delivery that servicing has been transferred. The
      notification is the operational trigger by which FNMA recognizes
      the transferee servicer as the contractual servicer for the loans.
    type: do
    audit_question: For every concurrent servicing transfer, can [LENDER] (as seller) produce evidence of timely delivery-time notification to Fannie Mae of the servicing transfer?
    program_review: Does the program ensure the seller notifies Fannie Mae at the time of loan delivery that servicing has been transferred (the trigger for FNMA to recognize the transferee servicer)?
    file_review: For concurrent transfers, confirm delivery-time notification to Fannie Mae of the servicing transfer.
