LOAN FRAUD ZERO TOLERANCE STATEMENT All approved Broker/Lenders must be aware that they bear the responsibility for all incidents of fraud for loans originated by their employees. The Broker/Lender is responsible for the content and quality of each application taken and each loan submitted to Freedom Mortgage Corporation. THE SUBMISSION OF A LOAN APPLICATION CONTAINING FALSE INFORMATION IS A CRIME! Types of Loan Fraud 1) Submission of inaccurate information, including false statements on loan application(s) and falsification of documents purporting to substantiate credit, employment, deposit and asset information, personal information including identity, ownership/non-ownership of real property, etc. 2) Forgery of partially or predominantly accurate information. 3) Incorrect statements regarding current occupancy or intent to maintain minimum continuing occupancy as stated in the security instrument. 4) Lack of due diligence by Lender/loan officer/interviewer/processor, including failure to obtain all information required by the application and failure to request further information as dictated by Borrower s responses to other questions. 5) Unquestioned acceptance of information or documentation which is know, should be known, or should be suspected to be inaccurate. a. Simultaneous or consecutive processing of multiple owner-occupied loans from one applicant supplying different information on each application. b. Allowing an applicant or interested third-party to assist with the processing of the loan. 6) Broker/Lender s non-disclosure of relevant information. Consequences The effects of Loan Fraud are costly to all parties involved. Freedom Mortgage Corporation stands behind the quality of its loan production. Fraudulent loans cannot be sold into the secondary market and, if sold, will require repurchase by Freedom Mortgage Corporation. Fraudulent loans damage our reputation with our investors and mortgage insurance providers. The price paid by those who participate in Loan Fraud is even more costly. The following is a list of a few of the potential consequences that may be incurred: Consequences to Broker/Lender 1) Criminal Prosecution. 2) Loss of Mortgage Broker/Real Estate/Mortgage Banker s License Loan Fraud Zero Tolerance Statement 05/23/2011
3) Loss of lender access due to exchange of information between lenders and mortgage insurance companies including submission of information to investors (FHLMC, FNMA, police agencies, and the Department of Banking and Finance). 4) Civil action by Freedom Mortgage Corporation 5) Civil action by applicant/borrower or other parties to the transaction 6) Loss of approval status with Freedom Mortgage Corporation. Consequences to Borrower 1) Acceleration of debt (FNMA/FHLMC Mortgage/Deed of Trust). Item #6 states: Borrower shall also be in default if Borrower, during the loan application process, gave materially false or inaccurate information or statements to lender (or failed to provide lender with any material information) in connection with the loan evidenced by the Note, including, but not limited to, representations concerning Borrower s occupancy of the Property as a principal residence. Note: Foreclosure action will not allow the Borrower the benefit of reinstatement in order to cure the default. The Borrower must pay off the loan in full prior to the sale date of the property. 2) Criminal prosecution. 3) Civil action by Freedom Mortgage Corporation. 4) Civil action by other parties to the transaction, such as seller or real estate agent/broker/lender.. 5) Employment termination. 6) Loss of professional license, if any. 7) Adverse effect on credit history. I have read the following and understand Freedom Mortgage Corporation s position on Loan Fraud. BROKER/LENDER By: Printed Name: Its: Loan Fraud Zero Tolerance Statement 05/23/2011
Appraiser Independence - Certificate of Compliance Lender: Date: Address: ( Lender ) certifies all appraisal reports procured during the origination of mortgage loans submitted for purchase to Freedom Mortgage Corporation ( FMC ) were performed by an independent third party appraiser or through an independent third party appraiser management company. All appraisal reports are completed by a state licensed or state certified appraisal professional in compliance with the Interagency Appraisal and Evaluation Guidelines ( Guidelines ) which address the appraisal independence requirements under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010. The Lender prohibits any communication between the appraiser and the loan production staff and requires the appraiser to report any such communication to the Lender s senior management. All communication between the Lender and the appraiser is believed to have been in full compliance with the Guidelines and the Lender is not aware of any attempt by its production staff to influence the value, opinion of market condition, or any other aspect of the appraisal. Outside of a valid and complete executed purchase contract, no other information has been or will be provided to the appraiser that might influence the value, opinion of market condition, or construction of the appraisal. Such prohibited data includes, but is not limited to, the owner s estimate of value, a target value, the purchase price, loan amount, comparable sales, or the loan to value ratio. With the exception of the bona fide quality assurance review and requirement of minimum standards for factual information, the Lender has made no attempt to influence the development of construction of the appraisal. The Lender has not conditioned payment for services, or promise of future engagements on the appraised value, opinion of market condition, or other opinions expressed in the appraisal. The Lender certifies they have developed and adopted written policies and procedures implementing the Guidelines including quality control procedures. Borrowers were provided copies of the appraisal reports in accordance with the Guidelines. In addition, no appraisers were listed on any agency exclusionary list. By Authorized Signature below, I hereby certify all appraisals procured by Lender fully meet the requirements of the Guidelines: Signature of Owner / Principal Officer Printed Name / Title
