The fast-growing multifamily loan programs of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are garnering a bit of attention these days – but not necessarily for good reasons. The Federal Housing Finance Agency wants the two mortgage giants to take more precautions when selecting and monitoring their multifamily seller/servicers. Also, the FHFA’s Office of Inspector General and the FBI are investigating a multi-million-dollar mortgage fraud scheme in the multifamily sector that impacted Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac MBS. The FHFA recently issued an advisory bulletin detailing its expectations for Fannie and Freddie to institute proper controls and perform monitoring to identify and manage multifamily counterparty risks.
