CHLA Urges Fannie and Freddie to Purchase Loans with Post-closing forbearance – to stabilize Correspondent Lending

CHLA sent a letter to FHFA, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac asking the GSEs to purchase properly underwritten loans (and not demand repurchase on loans) that go into forbearance after a loan closing. The purpose is to stabilize aggregator pricing and purchasing of conventional loans, and to address the growing financial risks of correspondent lenders being stuck with unsaleable loans because of such forbearance.
