MPF Xtra® Training:Retained

Servicing Retained

Servicing Retained Training Overview

This training provides guidance for Participating Financial Institutions through the process of origination, processing, underwriting, selling and servicing the loan under the MPF Xtra® program.

Complete Training to Understand Your Responsibilities:

A couple things to keep in mind:

  • The training modules are meant to follow a general best practice process flow.
  • You are responsible to originate, process, underwrite and close in your institution’s name; following standard secondary market procedures and the MPF Guides.
  • The MPF Program requires the use of agency (Fannie/Freddie) documents for origination through closing.
  • Review and familiarize yourself with the MPF Guides.

Tip: There are several MPF websites available to you. Learn more

Tip: If you find an MPF closing package within your doc prep system; know this was not created or approved by the MPF Program.

Your interaction with MPF in the loan process will include:

  • Providing loan information to MPF using the automated (batch) submission process. The Fannie Mae 3.0 XML ULDD is the required format. 
  • Pricing and locking the loan using the eMPF website.
  • After disbursing loan proceeds and not less than seven business days prior to price expiration, you will request loan funding using eMPF. If you do not have a full seven days, you will need to purchase an extension. 
  • The custody folder is to be pre-certified by the MPF Document Custodian no less than three business days prior to price expiration. 
    • Monitor the pre-custody reports, making any corrections required, to ensure the loan is certified. If necessary, purchase an extension. 
    • As a servicing PFI you will keep the servicing file.
