C-1.2-05, Charging for a Release of Lien (05/15/2019) The servicer must not charge the borrower a fee for releasing, reconveying, or discharging Fannie Mae’s lien against the property, unless all of the conditions listed in the following table apply. ✓ Conditions under which a release of lien fee may be charged The fee is paid to a third party for services rendered. For example, fees paid to a recorder of deeds, a notary public, or a trustee under a deed of trust (even if the trustee is the servicer’s affiliate or subsidiary). Such fees are not prohibited by applicable law, the terms of the note or security instrument, or the mortgage insurer or guarantor. The amount of the fee is consistent with other fees permitted by the mortgage insurer or guarantor, if applicable. The release of lien is not related to a charge-off (see D1-1-02, Evaluating a First Lien Mortgage Loan for Charge-Off and Release of Lien). The servicer must follow the procedures in Reimbursement for Recording Costs Associated with a Mortgage Loan Satisfaction or Charge-Off in F-1-05, Expense Reimbursement in order to seek reimbursement from Fannie Mae. Chapter C-2, Servicing ARM Loans Introduction This chapter describes servicing of ARM loans. Section C-2.1, Processing ARM Loan Payments
Operationalizing Fannie Mae Servicing Guide C-1.2-05 — Charging for a Release of Lien
This is verbatim, source-snapshotted regulator text from the Claude for Compliance open corpus. To turn a rule like this into compliance work product: gap-analyze your policies and procedures (P&Ps) against these requirements to surface stale, conflicting, or missing provisions; operationalize any change with a ready-to-run update kit; and produce audit-ready evidence — every step grounded only in the regulator’s own words, never invented.
To work from the whole rulebook rather than this one page: download the corpus — every register on this site, verbatim, each with its source snapshot and effective date — then follow the methodology. It asks your assistant to answer only from the downloaded text, cite the register id and effective date it used, and tell you when the corpus does not cover something instead of filling the gap from memory. Running it locally also means no one sees which regulations you are looking at.
