Terms of Fannie Mae’s non-performing loan sales require the buyer to pursue loss mitigation options that are sustainable for the borrowers.

Bids are due on the four larger pools on November 2 and on the Community Impact Pools on November 15.
Fannie Mae also announced that it is selling off its fifth pool of re-performing loans, which are mortgages that were previously delinquent, but are current and performing with or without the use of a loan modification.
This sale consists of approximately 9,900 loans, having an unpaid principal balance of approximately $2.2 billion.
This sale is also being conducted in four pools. Pool #1 is approximately $609.5 million in UPB, Pool #2 is approximately $442.3 million in UPB, Pool 3 is approximately $608.4 million in UPB, and Pool 4 is approximately $554.3 million in UPB.

The terms of Fannie Mae's re-performing loan sales require the buyer to offer loss mitigation options designed to be sustainable to any borrower who may re-default within five years following the loan sale.
Additionally, buyers must report on loss mitigation outcomes. Any reporting requirements cease once a loan has been current for twelve consecutive months after the closing of the sale.
