    Deed-in-Lieu

    - Overview.
  • All Resources

    What is a Deed-in-Lieu?

    A deed-in-lieu (" deed in lieu of foreclosure") is a customer's voluntary conveyance of clear and marketable title of the residential or commercial property to Freddie Mac in exchange for a discharge of debt.

    Getting going

    If a debtor's hardship is long-term and they're not able to be authorized for any retention options or a brief sale option, the Servicer ought to examine the customer for a deed in lieu of foreclosure, a quicker and simpler process that makes it possible for having a hard time homeowners to exit with dignity from their homes.

    The basic deed-in-lieu streamlines and simplifies the deal by:

    - Avoiding foreclosure.
    - Offering up to $7,500 in moving assistance for homeowners who meet certain requirements.
    - Accelerating the decision-making procedure by handing over approval of authority to Servicers.

Borrower Eligibility

All borrowers are qualified for a deed-in-lieu under the following conditions:

- A customer who doesn't meet the requirements for a streamlined deed in lieu of foreclosure need to be experiencing or have experienced among the eligible challenges listed in Single-Family Seller/Servicer Guide (Guide) Section 9202.2( a).
- The customer needs to have the ability to communicate clear and marketable title to the mortgaged facilities to Freddie Mac.
- The customer isn't delinquent, hasn't acquired a new mortgage in the six months preceding the customer's delinquency or, if the debtor is present in the six months preceding examination for a deed-in-lieu, the debtor is only permitted to have actually acquired a if their qualified challenge was far-off work transfer.
- if the Borrower is current, in the six months preceding the evaluation of the Borrower for a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure.
- The Borrower is only allowed to have actually acquired a brand-new Mortgage if the Borrower's eligible difficulty was remote employment transfer.
Exceptions: There are some circumstances where the Servicer should submit a deed-in-lieu suggestion to Freddie Mac:

- If the residential or commercial property is condemned and/or broker rate opinion (BPO) reveals that the residential or commercial property has actually been badly maintained, has structural/foundation problems or needs major repairs.
- If a borrower does not fulfill eligibility requirements for a deed in lieu of foreclosure but the Servicer feels it might be the very best choice for resolving the delinquency. The Servicer ought to also submit a complete Borrower Response Package (BRP).
However, unless informed by Freddie Mac, all Servicers are entrusted to authorize a deed in lieu of foreclosure that satisfies the eligibility requirements of Section 9209.2( a)

Borrower Documentation

Borrower paperwork is based upon delinquency. Borrowers who are more than 18 months overdue need to be evaluated for a structured deed-in-lieu.

For more information about deeds-in-lieu, describe Chapter 9209.
