Introduction
In mortgage secondary markets, it is essential to ensure that the loans have high saleability and are 100% compliant with underwriting guidelines, regulations, and TRID. This requirement sets the stage for a comprehensive due diligence on borrower portfolios, a step that is integral for ensuring the viability of loans in the secondary market transactions.
The landscape of secondary market transactions presents several challenges that can significantly impact efficiency and compliance:
- Complex Transactions: The evaluation of complex transactions extends beyond surface-level assessments, delving into the depths of a borrower's financial health and the myriad of associated risks. Thorough examination should ensure loans are attractive to investors and compliant with all relevant regulations.
- Regulatory Compliance Hurdles: The mortgage industry's dense regulatory landscape, including TRID, TILA, RESPA, and ATR/QM rules, presents significant navigational challenges. Adhering to these regulations is crucial for the legality and saleability of mortgage loans.
- Technological Discrepancies: Fragmented technological solutions that are currently in use can hamper the efficiency of the due diligence process, leading to increased costs and delays in transaction completions.
The repercussions of neglecting due diligence have been starkly highlighted by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), with fines totalling over $1.5 billion for non-compliance since 2012. This serves as a clear warning of the financial risks associated with inadequate due diligence practices.
Given the high stakes involved, conducting thorough due diligence is essential, not merely as a regulatory mandate but as a critical measure to safeguard against financial losses and guarantee the success of loan transactions in the secondary markets.
