3 Type of Mortgage Loan Determines Escalation Path It is important to know the type of mortgage loan the homeowner has, to determine the escalation path to follow. Definition of the mortgage loan types: A GSE loan is a loan that is owned or guaranteed by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac. A non-gse loan is not owned or guaranteed by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac or is not a government loan. To determine if the loan is owned by one of the GSEs, you can look up the loan using MakingHomeAffordable.gov, under the Get Assistance tab and clicking Loan Look Up. A government loan is owned or guaranteed by FHA, VA or USDA/RHS. Any loan can be escalated directly to the servicer. 3

HSC reviews the escalated case within 2 business days and sends the Servicer Engagement Notice to the servicer to escalate the case within these 2 business days. HSC reaches out to the trusted advisor to request any additional information that is needed. 18
19 Acknowledgement Escalating Party Notified Case Was Received STEP 1 STEP 2 STEP 3 STEP 4 Servicer sends acknowledgement that the Escalated Case was received, to the escalating party, within 5 business days from the receipt of the request to escalate. The acknowledgement will be in writing and will include: Case reference name or number, Anticipated Resolution Date, and Toll-free escalation contact phone number. Anticipated Resolution Date may not exceed 30 calendar days from the later of: (i) The date the inquiry was received or (ii)the date on which any necessary authorizations (including third-party authorizations) were received. 19
20 Case Resolution Servicers Resolve Escalated Cases STEP 1 STEP 2 STEP 3 STEP 4 Upon receipt of the Escalated Case, the servicer will review the case to: Determine the nature of the inquiry, Compare the information provided against the information on file, Determine a proposed resolution within 30 calendar days of the case submission date, and Secure concurrence for the proposed resolution, if applicable. If resolution takes longer than 30 calendar days, servicer must provide an update every 15 calendar days. 20
21 Communication STEP 1 STEP 2 STEP 3 STEP 4 HSC, MHA Help and Servicers Communication of Case Resolution HSC and MHA Help Within 5 business days of concurring with the servicer, HSC and MHA Help must communicate the resolution to the escalating party and the homeowner, respectively. Servicer Within 10 business days of reaching a decision, the servicer must communicate the resolution to the homeowner and escalating party in writing. 21
22 Special Considerations Substantially Similar Case Submissions Substantially similar means the substance of an Escalated Case inquiry pertains to the same homeowner and loan inquiry or dispute as a previously resolved Escalated Case. Servicers are not required to review substantially similar cases. If the case was escalated by HSC or MHA Help, then a determination that a case is substantially similar to a previous inquiry or dispute will not be final until HSC or MHA Help concurs with the servicer s determination. 22
23 Special Considerations Escalated Cases and Foreclosures Timing A servicer may not refer a loan to foreclosure or conduct a foreclosure sale unless and until an Escalated Case is properly resolved. Exceptions A servicer is not required to suspend a foreclosure sale when: An Escalated Case is received after midnight of the seventh business day before the foreclosure sale date, or A court fails/refuses to halt the sale after the servicer has made reasonable effort to stop the sale. Pending Cases Escalated Cases that are pending at the time of a foreclosure sale must still be resolved. 23
24 Special Considerations Homeowner Incorrectly Denied a Trial Period Plan If a servicer determines, as a result of an Escalated Case, that a homeowner was incorrectly denied a trial period plan: The servicer must offer the homeowner a trial period plan based on the status of the homeowner and the loan at the time of the servicer s initial evaluation, and To the greatest extent possible, the homeowner must be put in the same position as he or she would have been if the servicer had offered the homeowner the trial period plan in accordance with MHA guidelines. 24
25 Special Considerations Escalated Cases Pending Litigation In some cases, a servicer cannot provide information regarding the issues related to the Escalated Case due to pending litigation involving the servicer and the homeowner. The servicer must resolve the Escalated Case by a written communication to the escalating party, including the relevant litigation case name, case number and date and court of filing. The servicer still must obtain concurrence from either HSC or MHA Help, if applicable, before the case can be resolved. Pending litigation does not include foreclosure actions brought on by the servicer. 25
26 Examples of Escalated Cases HAMP Escalations Document Handling Home Retention Options Status Issues Foreclosure Initiated The homeowner submitted documents, but the servicer has either lost or misplaced the documents. Servicer did not properly assess the homeowner for MHArelated home retention/workout options. Communications sent from the servicer to homeowner did not accurately portray homeowner s MHA-related status. The servicer has wrongfully referred a case to foreclosure. 26
27 Examples of Escalated Cases HAFA issues that should be escalated. HAFA Policy Issues Servicer is not responding according to program timelines. Eligibility Issues Servicer Issues Post-Closing Issues Servicer claims homeowner is not HAFA-eligible because homeowner is in bankruptcy. Servicer is not allowing at least 30 days for the buyer to close. Servicer has provided incorrect tax forms or incorrect information on the form # 1099-C. HAFA issues that may be escalated to the servicer, but not to the MHA Support Centers. Property Valuation Mortgage Insurance Denial Servicer will not allow adjustments to the list price of the property. Servicer claims that the mortgage insurance company is denying approval of the short sale. 27
