Program Performance Report Through January 2013

Inside:
Report Highlights
Over 1.5 Million Homeowner Assistance Actions Taken through Making Home
Affordable
• More than 1.1 million homeowners have received a permanent modification through the Home
Affordable Modification Program (HAMP). These homeowners have reduced their first lien mortgage
payments by a median of approximately $546 each month – more than one-third of their median
before-modification payment – saving a total estimated $17.9 billion to date in monthly mortgage
payments.
• Homeowners currently in HAMP permanent modifications with some form of principal reduction
have been granted an estimated $9.2 billion in principal reduction. Of all non-GSE loans eligible for
principal reduction entering HAMP in January, 69% included a principal reduction feature.
• More than 105,000 second lien modifications have been completed through the Second Lien
Modification Program (2MP).
• More than 114,000 homeowners have exited their homes through a short sale or deed-in-lieu of
foreclosure with assistance from the Home Affordable Foreclosure Alternatives Program (HAFA).

This Month: Q4 2012 Servicer Assessment Results
• For the fourth quarter of 2012, two servicers were found to need only minor improvement on the
areas reviewed for program performance, while seven servicers were found to need moderate
improvement. All servicers will need to continue to demonstrate progress in areas identified in
subsequent program reviews.
• Servicers continue to focus attention on areas identified in previous program reviews and, as a result,
are demonstrating considerable improvement in program implementation:
• Mortgage servicers continue to appropriately calculate homeowner income, which is used to
determine a homeowner’s eligibility and modified payment amount under the program. In Q4
2012, the average income calculation error rate for the top servicers was below 2 percent.
• Servicers are more effectively evaluating homeowners under program eligibility criteria as
evidenced in the “second look disagree” category, which reflects the rate at which Treasury’s
program reviews disagree with the servicer’s decision not to assist a homeowner. In Q4 2012,
the average second look disagree percentage for the top servicers was less than 2 percent.

Program Performance Report Through January 2013

Making Home Affordable Program Activity
The Making Home Affordable Program was launched in March 2009 with the Home Affordable Modification Program (HAMP) which provides assistance to struggling homeowners
by lowering monthly first lien mortgage payments to an affordable level. Additional programs were subsequently rolled out to expand the program reach.

In total, the MHA program has completed over 1.5 million first and second lien permanent modifications, HAFA transactions, and UP forbearance plans.

Program
MHA First Lien
Modifications

The Home Affordable Modification Program (HAMP) provides
eligible borrowers the opportunity to lower their first lien
mortgage payment to affordable and sustainable levels through a
uniform loan modification process. Effective June 2012, HAMP's
eligibility requirements were expanded to include a "Tier 2"
evaluation for non-GSE loans that is modeled after the GSE
Standard Modification and includes properties that are currently
occupied by a tenant as well as vacant properties the borrower
intends to rent. FHA-HAMP and RD-HAMP provide first lien
modifications for distressed borrowers in loans guaranteed
through the Federal Housing Administration and Rural Housing
Service.

Second Lien Modification
Program (2MP)

Provides modifications and extinguishments on second liens when
there has been a first lien HAMP modification on the same
property.

Home Affordable
Foreclosure Alternatives
(HAFA)

Provides transition alternatives to foreclosure in the form of a
short sale or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure. Effective November
2012, the GSEs jointly streamlined their short sale and deed-in-lieu
of foreclosure programs. The GSE Standard HAFA program is
closely aligned with Treasury’s MHA HAFA program.

Unemployment Program
(UP)

Provides temporary forbearance of mortgage principal to enable
unemployed borrowers to look for a new job without fear of
foreclosure.

On January 27, 2012, Treasury announced an expansion of the eligibility for HAMP to reduce additional
foreclosures and help stabilize neighborhoods. The eligibility was expanded for non-GSE loans to (1)
allow for more flexible debt-to-income criteria and (2) include properties that are currently occupied by a
tenant, as well as vacant properties which the borrower intends to rent. This expanded HAMP criteria,
referred to as HAMP “Tier 2,” became effective on June 1, 2012 (although not all servicers began offering
Tier 2 modifications on that date). There is insufficient program data at this time to estimate the number
of homeowners who may qualify for HAMP Tier 2.
4 Current unpaid principal balance must be no greater than: $729,750 for a single-unit property, 2 units: $934,200, 3 Units: $1,129,250, 4

Second Lien Modification Program (2MP) Activity

Home Affordable Foreclosure Alternatives (HAFA) Activity

The Second Lien Modification Program (2MP) provides assistance to homeowners in a first lien
permanent modification who have an eligible second lien with a participating HAMP servicer. This
assistance can result in a modification of the second lien and even full or partial extinguishment of the
second lien. Second lien modifications follow a series of steps and may include capitalization, interest
rate reduction, term extension and principal forbearance or forgiveness.

The Home Affordable Foreclosure Alternatives Program (HAFA) offers incentives and a streamlined
process for homeowners looking to exit their homes through a short sale or deed-in-lieu of
foreclosure. HAFA has established important homeowner protections and an industry standard for
streamlined transactions. Effective November 2012, the GSEs revised their short sale and deed-in-lieu
programs. The GSE Standard HAFA program is closely aligned with Treasury’s MHA HAFA program. In
HAFA transactions, homeowners:

2MP modifications and partial extinguishments require that the first lien HAMP modification be
permanent and active and that the second lien have an unpaid balance of $5,000 or more and a
monthly payment of at least $100.

Making Home Affordable: Summary Results
Program Performance Report Through January 2013

HAMP Principal Reduction
Principal reduction may be offered to any non-GSE HAMP modifications, and servicers are required to evaluate the benefit of principal reduction for non-GSE mortgages with a loan-to-value ratio greater
than 115% when evaluating a homeowner for a HAMP first lien modification. While servicers are required to evaluate homeowners for principal reduction, they are not required to reduce principal as part
of the modification. The MHA Program allows servicers to provide principal reduction on HAMP modifications in two ways: 1) under HAMP Principal Reduction Alternative (PRA), principal is reduced to
lower the LTV, the investor is eligible to receive an incentive on the amount of principal reduced, and the reduction vests over a 3-year period and 2) servicers can also offer principal reduction to
homeowners on a HAMP modification outside the requirements of HAMP PRA. If they do, the investor receives no incentive payment for the principal reduction and the principal reduction can be
recognized immediately.
To encourage investors to consider or expand the use of HAMP PRA, Treasury issued program guidance on February 16, 2012 tripling financial incentives under HAMP PRA for investors who agree to reduce
principal for eligible underwater homeowners. The new program guidance applies to all permanent modifications of non-GSE loans under HAMP that include HAMP PRA and have a trial period plan effective
date on or after March 1, 2012. HAMP PRA can be a feature of a HAMP trial or permanent modification.

homeowners seriously delinquent at the time of trial start than the overall population of HAMP
homeowners. Overall, homeowners receiving permanent loan modifications with principal

6 Because the first step of the standard HAMP waterfall includes the capitalization of accrued interest, out-ofpocket escrow advances to third parties, any escrow advances made to third parties during the trial period
plan, and servicing advances that are made for costs and expenses incurred in performing servicing
obligations, this can result in an increase in the principal balance after modification. As a result, the loan-tovalue ratio can increase in the modification process.

HAMP Principal Reduction

Trials Started with Principal Reduction as a % of Eligible
Loans 1

The terms of the $25 billion National Mortgage Settlement regarding mortgage servicing deficiencies between the five largest mortgage servicers,
the Federal government, and 49 state attorneys general, have caused servicers to increase the use of non-PRA principal reductions. Of non-GSE
loans eligible1 for principal reduction that started a trial in January 2013, 69% included a principal reduction feature. Only 55% offered principal
reduction through the HAMP PRA program. The remaining HAMP trial modifications with a principal reduction feature were granted outside the
requirements of HAMP PRA, where the investor does not receive a financial incentive for the principal reduction. Principal reductions granted
outside of the HAMP PRA program since February 2012 are likely attributable to the National Mortgage Settlement.

Program Performance Report Through January 2013

Homeowner Benefits and First Lien Modification Characteristics
Aggregate payment savings to homeowners who received HAMP first lien permanent modifications are estimated to total approximately $17.9 billion, program to date, compared
with unmodified mortgage obligations. The median monthly savings for homeowners in active permanent first lien modifications is $545.72, or 38% of the median monthly payment
before modification.

Modification Steps of Active Permanent Modifications
HAMP modifications follow a series of waterfall steps. The modification steps include
interest rate adjustment, term extension and principal forbearance.
• Under Tier 1, servicers apply the modification steps in sequence until the
homeowner’s after modification front-end debt-to-income (DTI) ratio is 31%. The
impact of each modification step can vary to achieve the target of 31%.
• Under Tier 2, servicers apply consistent modification terms resulting in the
homeowner’s post modification DTI falling within an allowable target range.1

Homeowner Characteristics
• Tier 2 provides another modification opportunity for struggling homeowners who
did not qualify for Tier 1 or received a Tier 1 trial or permanent modification but lost
good standing. Of the Tier 2 trial modifications started:
• 37% were previously in a Tier 1 trial or permanent modification.
• 22% were previously evaluated for Tier 1 and did not meet eligibility
requirements.

• The primary hardship reasons for homeowners in active permanent modifications
are:

• Of the Tier 2 trial modifications started, 8% were for non owner-occupied
properties.

• Of all HAMP trial modifications started, 80% of homeowners were at least 60 days
delinquent at trial start. The rest were up to 59 days delinquent or current and in
imminent default.

• The median gross monthly income of homeowners in the program is $3,845.72.
• The median credit score of homeowners in the program is 574.

• 68.0% experienced loss of income (curtailment of income or unemployment)
• 10.7% reported excessive obligation
• 3.5% reported an illness of the principal borrower

HAMP Evaluations Complete Ratio3

1 Homeowners with HAMP eligible loans, which include conventional loans that were originated on or before Jan. 1, 2009; excludes loans with current unpaid principal balances greater than current conforming loan limits, FHA and VA loans, loans
where investor pooling and servicing agreements preclude modification, and manufactured housing loans with title/chattel issues that exclude them from HAMP. Treasury has expanded HAMP's eligibility criteria to include a "Tier 2" evaluation
designed to provide help for borrowers with a financial hardship whose debt-to-income ratio is below 31 percent, who have properties occupied by a tenant or who have vacant properties that the borrower intends to rent. Servicers began
accepting HAMP Tier 2 modification requests as of 6/1/2012 and are including HAMP Tier 2 eligible loans in the outreach survey data shown here.
2 Right Party Contact (RPC) is achieved when a servicer has successfully communicated directly with the homeowner obligated under the mortgage about resolution of their delinquency in accordance with program guidelines. The RPC ratio reflects
the share of homeowners with which the servicer has established RPC as a percent of HAMP eligible loans, excluding homeowners where RPC or HAMP evaluation is no longer needed.
3 HAMP evaluations complete ratio reflects the share of homeowners who have been evaluated for HAMP as a percent of HAMP eligible loans, excluding homeowners where RPC or HAMP evaluation is no longer needed. Evaluated homeowners
include those offered a trial plan, those that are denied or did not accept a trial plan and homeowners that failed to submit a complete HAMP evaluation package by program-specified timelines.

Making Home Affordable: Servicer Results
Program Performance Report Through January 2013

Average Homeowner Delinquency at Trial Start1
Servicers are instructed to follow a series of steps in order to evaluate homeowners for HAMP, including:
• Identifying and soliciting the homeowners in the early stages of delinquency;
• Making reasonable efforts to establish right party contact with the homeowners;
• Gathering required documentation once contact is established in order to evaluate the homeowners for a HAMP trial; and,
• Communicating decisions to the homeowners.
Effective 10/1/11, a new servicer compensation structure exists to encourage servicers to work with struggling homeowners in the early stages of delinquency with the highest
incentives paid for permanent modifications completed when the homeowner is 120 days delinquent or less at the trial start.

300
Maximum servicer incentive is paid for
converting a permanent modification
that was 120 days delinquent or less at
trial start.

Servicer Time to Resolve Non-GSE Escalations: Average Resolution Time by Quarter in Which Escalations were Resolved1
Servicers are required to resolve borrower inquiries and disputes that are escalated by the MHA Support Centers. Escalated cases include allegations that the servicer did not
properly assess the homeowner according to program guidelines, inappropriately denied the homeowner for applicable MHA program(s), or initiated or continued inappropriate
foreclosure actions. Effective February 1, 2011, the servicers are directed to review and resolve non-GSE escalated cases within 30 calendar days from receipt of the case by the
escalating party. Over the last three quarters, all of the nine largest servicers’ non-GSE resolved cases have an average resolution time at or below the 30 day target.

MHA Servicer Assessment
Overview

Background
Since the Making Home Affordable Program’s (MHA) inception in the spring
of 2009, Treasury has monitored the performance of participating mortgage
servicers. Treasury has been publicly reporting information about servicer
performance through two types of data: compliance data, which reflects
servicer compliance with specific MHA guidelines; and program results data,
which reflects how timely and effectively servicers assist eligible
homeowners and report program activity.
When MHA began, most servicers did not have the staff, procedures, or
systems in place to respond to the volume of homeowners struggling to pay
their mortgages, or to respond to the housing crisis generally. Very few
mortgage modifications were even occurring. Treasury sought to get
servicers to join MHA and to improve their operations quickly, so as to
implement a national mortgage modification program.
Through ongoing compliance reviews, Treasury has required participating
servicers to take specific actions to improve their servicing processes. While
the servicers have improved their performance, they still have more progress
to make. Toward that end, Treasury is publishing servicer assessments for
the largest servicers participating in MHA. Not only do the assessments
provide more transparency to the public about servicer performance in the
program, but the assessments are also intended to encourage servicers to
correct identified instances of non-compliance.
Servicer participation in MHA is voluntary, based on a contract with Fannie
Mae as financial agent on behalf of Treasury. Although Treasury does not
regulate these institutions and does not have the authority to impose fines
or penalties, Treasury can, pursuant to the contract, take certain remedial
actions against servicers not in compliance with MHA guidelines. Such
remedial actions include requiring servicers to correct identified instances of
non-compliance, as noted above. In addition, Treasury can implement
financial remedies such as withholding incentive payments owed to
servicers. Such incentive payments, which are the only payments Treasury
makes for the benefit of servicers under the program, include payments for
every successful permanent modification under the Home Affordable
Modification Program, and payments for completed short sale/deed-in-lieu

transactions pursuant to the Home Affordable Foreclosure Alternative
Program.
It is important to note that Treasury’s compliance work related to MHA
applies only to those servicers that have agreed to participate in MHA for
mortgage loans that are not owned or guaranteed by Fannie Mae or Freddie
Mac (Government Sponsored Enterprises, or GSEs). Treasury cannot and
does not perform compliance reviews of (1) mortgage loans or activities that
fall outside of MHA, (2) GSE loans or (3) those loans insured through the
Federal Housing Administration. For each servicer, the loans that are eligible
for MHA represent only a portion of that servicer’s overall mortgage
servicing operation.
Treasury’s foremost goal is to assist struggling homeowners who may be
eligible for MHA. These servicer assessments set a new benchmark for
providing detailed information about how mortgage servicers are performing
against key metrics. But, in addition to this direct effect, MHA has had an
important indirect effect on the market as well. MHA has established
standards that have improved mortgage modifications across the industry,
and has led to important changes in the way mortgage servicers assist
struggling homeowners generally. These changes include standards for how
mortgage modifications should be designed so that they are sustainable,
standards for communications with homeowners so that the process is as
efficient and as understandable as possible, and a variety of standards for
protecting homeowners, such as prohibitions on “dual tracking” –
simultaneously evaluating a homeowner for a modification while proceeding
to foreclose. Going forward, Treasury hopes these assessments will also set
the standard for transparency about mortgage servicer efforts to assist
homeowners.
Below are general descriptions of the data, the evaluation process, and the
consequences for servicers needing improvement.

MHA Servicer Assessment
Overview

The Performance Data: Compliance and Program Results
Freddie Mac, acting as Treasury’s compliance agent for MHA, has created a
separate division known as Making Home Affordable–Compliance (MHA-C) to
evaluate servicer performance through reviews of program compliance. MHAC tests and evaluates a range of servicer activities for compliance with MHA
guidelines. Once MHA-C’s reviews are complete, MHA-C shares its results with
the servicers and identifies areas that need remediation. Each compliance
activity tested falls into one of three overall compliance categories – Identifying
and Contacting Homeowners, Homeowner Evaluation and Assistance, and
Program Management, Reporting and Governance. The compliance results
shared with the servicers are then used to generate the servicer assessments.
The assessments highlight particular compliance activities tested by MHA-C
that had significant impact on homeowners and include for those highlighted
activities a one-star, two-star, or three-star rating for the most recent
evaluations. One star means the servicer did not meet Treasury’s benchmark
required for that particular activity, and the servicer needs substantial
improvement in its performance of that activity. Two stars mean the servicer
did not meet Treasury’s benchmark required for that particular activity, and the
servicer needs moderate improvement in its performance of that activity.
Three stars mean the servicer met Treasury’s benchmark required for that
particular activity, but the servicer may nonetheless need minor improvement
in its performance of that activity.
Although the compliance reviews emphasize objective measurements and
observed facts, compliance reviews still involve a certain level of judgment.
Compliance reviews are also retrospective in nature – looking backward, not
forward, which means that activities identified as needing improvement in a
given quarter may already be under remediation by the servicer. In addition,
not every compliance activity is evaluated every quarter, which means that a
rating from one quarter might carry forward to the subsequent quarter’s
assessment if that activity was not retested in that subsequent quarter. Finally,
the compliance reviews use “sampling” as a testing methodology. Sampling, an
industry-accepted auditing technique, looks at a subset of a particular
population of activity transactions, rather than the entirety of the population of
activity transactions, to extrapolate a servicer’s overall performance in that
particular activity.
In addition to the ratings for compliance data, the assessments also include

program results metrics. Fannie Mae, acting as Treasury’s program
administrator for MHA, collects servicer data used to measure program results.
These metrics are key indicators of how timely and effectively servicers assist
eligible homeowners under MHA guidelines and report program data.
Although the servicers are not given an overall rating for this data, the results
metrics nonetheless compare a servicer’s performance for a given quarter
against the “best” and “worst” performing servicer of the largest servicers
participating in the program. The results metrics provide a snapshot of how
each of those servicers compares in specific areas under MHA.

The Determination Process: Results of the Data
Treasury reviews the compliance data and ratings, the program results metrics,
and other relevant factors affecting servicer performance (including, but not
limited to, a servicer’s progress in implementing previously identified
improvements) in determining whether a servicer needs substantial
improvement, moderate improvement, or minor improvement to its
performance under MHA guidelines. The assessments summarize the
significant factors impacting those decisions. Based on those assessments,
Treasury may take remedial action against servicers. Page 20 summarizes the
overall level of improvement needed for each servicer.

Consequences for Servicers
For servicers in need of substantial improvement, Treasury will, absent
extenuating circumstances, withhold financial incentives owed to those
servicers until they make certain identified improvements. In certain cases,
particularly where there is a failure to correct identified problems within a
reasonable time, Treasury may also permanently reduce the financial
incentives. Servicers in need of moderate improvement may be subject to
withholding in the future if they fail to make certain identified improvements.
All withholdings apply only to incentives owed to servicers for their
participation in MHA; these withholdings do not apply to incentives paid to
servicers for the benefit of homeowners or investors.

Additional Information
See the “Metrics Description” on page 43 for a description of each of the
compliance and results metrics presented in the assessments. For more

Permanent modifications transferred among servicers
are credited to the originating servicer. However, trial
modifications transferred are reflected in the current
servicer's population. A servicer's conversion rate can be
negatively impacted by the transfer of trial
modifications.
Aged Trials as % of Active Trials: This monthly metric
measures trials lasting six months or longer as a share of
all active trials. These figures include trial modifications
that have been converted to permanent modifications
by the servicer and are pending reporting to the program
system of record, plus some portion which may be
canceled.
Days to Resolve Escalated Cases: This cumulative metric
measures servicer response time for homeowner
inquiries escalated to MHA Support Centers. Effective
Feb. 1, 2011, a target of 30 calendar days was
established for non-GSE escalation cases, including an
estimated 5 days processing by the MHA Support
Centers. The methodology for calculating average days
to respond to escalated cases was updated to only
include non-GSE cases escalated on or after 2/1/2011.
The figures exclude investor denial cases escalated prior
to 11/1/2011. Cases involving bankruptcy and those
that did not require servicer actions are not included in
the calculation of servicer time to resolve escalations.
% of Missing Modification Status Reports: This monthly
metric measures the servicer’s ability to promptly report
on modification status. Inconsistent and untimely
reporting of modification status reports may impact
incentive compensation and loan performance analysis.
Treasury revised its Federally Declared Disaster (FDD)
guidance, allowing servicers to suspend OMR reporting
for loans where the homeowner was impacted by
Hurricane Sandy or any other FDD. This guidance may
impact missing OMR reporting.
