Acceptable AVM vendors are RELS, Corelogic and Interthinx, when required per program requirements. All borrowers must be vested on title; exception is allowed for properties held in the borrower s trust. Non-borrowing vested individuals who are not the spouse or civil union/domestic partner of the borrower are not acceptable. Refinance transactions involving properties being removed from a trust, business or removal of a borrower must be done prior to the closing of the loan. Non-borrowing spouses or civil unions/domestic partnerships must be correctly reflected on the loan documents in compliance with state statues. When a power of attorney is used, a fully executed POA must be provided to Sun West and must also be approved by Sun West prior to the closing of the loan. Loan documents signed without an approved POA will not be accepted. When using a Power of Attorney, the following guidelines apply: Letter of explanation must be provided for the use of the POA. The POA must be complete and fully executed. The POA must be Specific or Special that grants the attorney-in-fact to enter into a real estate mortgage transaction on behalf of the borrower and mortgage the subject property. Durable or General POA are not acceptable, except in states that require a statutory form or that prohibit the refusal of a Durable of General POA. POA is not unenforceable or illegal. POA must be revocable. POA document must be in effect at the time of loan application. If the POA expires, we must ensure that the loan will be able to fund prior to the expiration date. POA must be notarized. POA must be recorded concurrently with the security instrument/mortgage. POA must be acceptable and insurable by the title company issuing the title policy, and therefore, the title company must provide approval for the use of the POA and indicate that the final title policy will not have any exceptions for the use of the POA. For a refinance transaction, Sun West will need a specific power of attorney. This POA should specifically state the terms of the refinance transaction, i.e. POA should include the Lenders Name; Loan Amount; Interest Rate and Term. The documents (including disclosures) can be signed by the POA only AFTER the POA is executed. The only exception is if we have a generic or general POA in effect and then the title company is simply requiring a more specific POA to be done at closing. o Please note that some POAs are not valid or do not go into effect until the principal becomes mentally and/or physically disabled. Thus, if the principal is still mentally competent, the POA may not be valid. o If the principal is mentally incompetent, the POA must be durable and specifically designed to survive incapacity and avoid the need for court proceedings. This means that the designated POA can sign and act on behalf of the principal if and when the borrower becomes disabled or incapacitated. o Reviewed evidence from a physician (opinion letter, etc.) that the borrower was, in fact, competent at the time the POA was executed whenever a power of 20

23 o o attorney is used for a mentally incompetent borrower. An attorney, notary, or other witness is not acceptable to verify competency within the POA itself. In the instance in which you have a POA acting on behalf of an incompetent borrower and the POA wants to take the incompetent borrower off the title to the property or deed it from the borrower to themselves, you may need to obtain court approval in order to allow this to happen as some title companies will not allow this to occur, especially if the POA is doing so in a self-serving manner. Sometimes instead of a POA, there will be a guardian or court appointed conservator that has been assigned to the borrower. If that is the case, then we must be provided with the complete copy of the guardianship/conservatorship papers and the court must approve moving forward with the reverse mortgage transaction. Exception: For delegated loans, a POA does not need to be approved prior to closing. Note: For FHA loans, the initial loan application may not be executed by a Power of attorney except for military personnel and incapacitated borrowers [ B.1.a]. Revocable Trust Trusts must be meet all state, federal and agency lending regulations. Trust must be revocable trust; irrevocable trust are not acceptable, in other words, if the home is taken out of the trust at some point, the borrower must be able to retain title to the home. A property may only be held in the name of an inter vivos also known as a living trust, which is effective during the Settlor s lifetime. In general, a living trust is created during the lifetime of a person (as opposed to a testamentary trust which is created by the person s will after his/her death). The trustee must have the power to borrow money, purchase, construct, and mortgage or encumber real property. This must be written into the trust as a trustee power. The subject property must be an asset of the trust or the power is granted to add additional property to the trust if the subject property is not already listed as an asset. A trustee cannot sign any of the loan documents on behalf of the borrower, only along with the borrower. Only a power of attorney or court appointed guardian can sign documents on behalf of the homeowner/borrower. The trustee only signs the security instruments on behalf of the trust. The trust must have been created in the same jurisdiction of the subject property or meet the laws of the state in which the property is located. For example, if the trust was originally written in State X, but the mortgage borrower has since moved to State Y, an attorney opinion letter is required to verify that the trust that was created under the state laws of State X is legally binding and fully enforceable in State Y (where the subject property is located). The trust needs to be properly executed per state law. Some states require a notary or 2 witnesses in order to be considered legally valid. We do not accept unsigned or conformed copies. A fully executed copy is required. We must have a complete or entire copy of the trust including ALL pages, articles and amendments. With prior approval, Sun West may accept a fully executed trust cert in lieu of a full trust if all of our trust requirements items can be verified by the certification provided and if we are also provided with an attorney opinion letter that clearly indicates that per the local state law we can rely solely on a trust cert for loan purposes in lieu of a complete trust. When a loan is vested in the name of the trust, the vesting must include the complete trust name including the trust creation date. This complete trust vesting name including creation date must be on DOT and signature lines. If the trust is amended and restated, the vesting will also need to include the verbiage as amended and restated on and the date in addition to the original trust creation date. Title and Tile Insurance Requirements The title insurance policy must provide full title protection (trust approval) without listing any exceptions with respect to the trust or has issued a trust endorsement. The title company must document their approval for the use of the trust. The title insurance policy state that title to the security property is vested in the trustee(s) of the inter vivos revocable trust. Title to the security property is vested solely in the trustee(s) of the inter vivos revocable trust, jointly in the trustee(s) of the inter vivos revocable trust and in the name(s) of the individual borrower(s), or in the trustee(s) of more than one inter vivos revocable trust. Title held in the trust does not diminish the lender s rights as a creditor, including the right to have full title to the property vested in the lender should foreclosure proceedings have to be initiated to cure a default under the terms of the mortgage. 21
