Introduction

GMAC-RFC Objective
Welcome to GMAC-RFCs Client Guidethe reference book governing our business
relationship. This Client Guide sets forth the terms and conditions for selling Loans to GMACRFC. It also describes our products and Loan Programs, and contains standard forms that
will be useful in our dealings together.
Please feel free to contact your GMAC-RFC sales director with any questions you may have
about the contents of this Client Guide.
Thank you for your business. We look forward to working with you.

101
Client Contractual Obligations
By signing the Client Contract, the Client is bound by all provisions of this Client Guide,
including but not limited to the Representations and Warranties of Client and Remedies of
GMAC-RFC Sections of this Client Guide. This Client Guide, the Client Contract, and the
applicable Negotiated Commitment Letter govern the purchase of Loans under
Commitments.

102
Single Contract
This Client Guide sets forth the terms and conditions upon which a Client will sell mortgage
Loans and servicing to GMAC-RFC. A similar Servicer Guide covers Servicers who contract
with GMAC-RFC. GMAC-RFC maintains a single contractual relationship with each entity with
which it does business as a Client, a Servicer or both. GMAC-RFC has prepared two Guides
for ease of reference only. Where GMAC-RFC contracts with an entity to be both a Client and
a Servicer, it carefully evaluates all aspects of the proposed relationship before approving an
entity as a Client. Failure of a Client to perform obligations under either this Client Guide or
the Servicer Guide constitutes a default under the Client relationship and permits GMACRFC to disqualify such Client as either a Client or a Servicer and permits GMAC-RFC to
terminate its entire relationship with that entity.

Relationship of GMAC-RFC and Client
This Client Guide provides for terms related to the sale of Loans by Client and the purchase
of Loans by GMAC-RFC. The relationship between Client and GMAC-RFC is limited to that of a
seller on the part of Client and that of a buyer on the part of GMAC-RFC. Nothing in this
Client Guide or any related marketing or other materials creates or may be construed as
permitting or obligating GMAC-RFC to act as a financial or business advisor or consultant to
Client, as permitting or obliging GMAC-RFC to control Client or to conduct Clients operations,
as creating any fiduciary obligation on the part of GMAC-RFC to Client, or as creating any
joint venture, agency, partnership or other relationship between GMAC-RFC and Client other
than as explicitly and specifically set out in a formal writing, signed by both parties, intended
to create such a relationship. Client acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to obtain
the advice of experienced counsel of its own choosing in connection with the negotiation and
execution of the Client Contract and this Client Guide. Client further acknowledges that it is
experienced with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Client Guide and has made
its own independent decisions with respect to the Client Contract, the Client Guide and any
related transactions.

ID number. This ID number must be used on all correspondence and on all transmittals sent
to GMAC-RFC pertaining to Loans sold to GMAC-RFC under Commitments issued. This
number is sometimes referred to as the Client/Servicer ID number.

105
GMAC-RFC Loan Number
Each Loan is assigned a GMAC-RFC Loan number. This Loan number must be used for all
correspondence and transmittals sent to GMAC-RFC. The GMAC-RFC Loan number is located
on the Purchase Advice.

106
Servicer Contractual Obligations
All Loans purchased by GMAC-RFC under the terms of the Client Contract and this Client
Guide, as may be amended by a Negotiated Commitment Letter, must be serviced by a
Servicer under the terms of the Loan Documents, the Client Contract and the Servicer
Guide.

(2) Post-closing Review


In the interest of sound quality control measures, GMAC-RFC requires that the Client
audits at least a 10% randomly selected sample of recently closed Loan inventory
sold to GMAC-RFC and review the product within 90 days of its origination. The
Client may elect to replace the 10% randomly selected sample with a statistically
valid random sample provided the sample ensures a 95% confidence level and 2%
level of precision in the results. The random sample should include both servicing
retained and servicing released Loans and ensure that Loans from all underwriters,
appraisers, Loan originators, third-party originators and branch offices are audited
within each calendar year. The quality control plan should also allow for discretionary
and targeted sampling where appropriate. GMAC-RFC recommends that the Client
increase the scope or sample of Loans audited when new employees, appraisers or
third-party originators are added.
Unless performed as an element of the pre-closing review, the post-closing audit
should, at a minimum, consist of the following:
Complete underwriting of each Loan, including an evaluation of the appraisal
report by the quality control staff to evaluate the soundness of underwriting
judgment and compliance with Program Criteria and to determine the
existence of any irregularities. The presence of irregularities should lead to a
more thorough investigation.
Written re-verification of Loan documentation (e.g., employment and income,
deposits, source of funds, etc.). In this process, a blanket authorization form is
required. If the income used for qualification purposes can be verified through
tax returns, signed and dated IRS Forms 4506 or 4506-T or an equivalent
document authorizing the Client and/or its assigns to obtain income
information is required.
The Client must obtain a new appraisal from a qualified source, independent of
the original appraiser, on at least 10% of the audited sample [one out of ten
Loans]. This appraisal may take the form of a new appraisal or a field review. It
should include, at a minimum, an exterior inspection of the Mortgaged
Premises and comparables and a validation of the factual data on the original
appraisal report.
The Client must obtain and review a new credit report (independent of the
original reporting agency) on each Loan. GMAC-RFC recommends that the
Client order a new residential mortgage credit report or a source in-file credit
report on all sample Loans selected for the audit. These credit reports must
meet the requirements set forth in the Credit Report Requirements Section of
this Client Guide, including the requirement of a public records search.
Review the remaining documentation, including the Loan application and
closing documents, for consistency, accuracy, validity, completeness, etc.
Review the Loans included in the audit sample to determine compliance to the
various GMAC-RFC representations and warranties set forth in this Client
Guide.

The Client must also include in its quality control review all Loans in which a 30 day
Delinquency occurred within the first four months of the Loan. In addition, the
Client should include any Loan in which foreclosure proceedings have been instituted
within the first three years of the Loan if a Delinquency occurred during the first year
with respect to that Loan. In this case, the Client should obtain a new credit report
and new appraisal.
GMAC-RFC recommends that the Client expand the scope of its quality control
review whenever irregularities or discrepancies are discovered. This supplemental
audit should include verifying the occupancy of the Mortgaged Premises,
investigating the presence of undisclosed Secondary Financing and validating or
determining possible self-employment income of the Borrower.
The Client must maintain accurate records (log books, etc.) of all Loans audited, the
work performed, results, and necessary follow-up and should make these records
available to GMAC-RFC upon request. The Client must retain these records as long as
GMAC-RFC owns the Loan. The quality control staff should report general results as
well as variances discovered during any phase of the audit to the Clients senior
management on at least a quarterly basis. These reports should correct and prevent
deficiencies in the Clients ongoing origination, underwriting, appraisal and closing
functions. If a quality control audit discovers that a breach of any representations or
warranty has occurred, the Client must give GMAC-RFC prompt written notification of
such breach, outlining the details of the discovery and any supporting documents.
Send this notice to:
GMAC-RFC
One Meridian Crossings
Suite 100
Minneapolis, MN 55423
Attention: Quality Audit
GMAC-RFC may ask the Client to increase its quality control sampling requirements
or may take any action deemed necessary if the Client experiences a number of
variances which significantly impact the investment quality of the Loans sold to
GMAC-RFC.
(B) Loan Audit
The Client agrees to conduct a Loan audit on any Loan upon the written request of GMACRFC. The Client must determine whether the Loan was prudently originated and if an Event
of Default has occurred.
If an audit discovers an Event of Default, the Client must promptly notify GMAC-RFC in
writing as specified in this Client Guide.
The Client shall complete the audit of any Loan in which foreclosure proceedings have been
instituted in a thorough and timely manner. During this investigation, GMAC-RFC may
manage the foreclosure process, making decisions regarding short payoffs, deed-in-lieu
transactions, and REO sales prices and dispositions. GMAC-RFC will make these decisions
without regard to this investigation and as though it, or its investor, will incur the loss on the
Loan.
However, if the investigation shows that an Event of Default has occurred, GMAC-RFC may
ask the Client to repurchase the Loan or the property, or to reimburse GMAC-RFC for its loss,
if the property has been disposed of, depending on the stage of the foreclosure process at
the time of the determination.

The Client acknowledges that GMAC-RFC purchases Loans in reliance upon the accuracy and
truth of the Clients warranties and representations and upon the Clients compliance with the
agreements, requirements, terms and conditions set forth in the Client Contract and this
Client Guide.
All such representations and warranties are absolute, and the Client is fully liable for any
misrepresentation or breach of warranty regardless of whether it or GMAC-RFC actually had,
or reasonably could have been expected to obtain, knowledge of the facts giving rise to such
misrepresentation or breach of warranty.
The representations and warranties pertaining to each Loan purchased by GMAC-RFC survive
the Funding Date, any simultaneous or post-purchase sale of servicing with respect to the
Loan and any termination of the Client Contract, and are not affected by any investigation or
review made by, or on behalf of, GMAC-RFC except when expressly waived in writing by
GMAC-RFC.
The representations and warranties contained herein are made as of each Funding Date
(and each Substitution Date, if applicable), unless the specific representation or warranty
provides to the contrary. Making these representations and warranties does not release the
Client from its obligations under the representations and warranties contained in other
Sections of this Client Guide.
GMAC-RFC reserves the right to require the Client as a condition of GMAC-RFCs purchase of
a given Loan or group of Loans to make additional warranties in writing.

Guaranty Division.

(R) Casualty Insurance


The improvements upon the Mortgaged Premises are insured against loss by fire and other
hazards as required by this Client Guide, including flood insurance if required under the
National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended. The Security Instrument requires the
Borrower to maintain such casualty insurance at the Borrowers expense, or on the
Borrowers failure to do so, authorizes the holder of the Security Instrument to obtain and
maintain such insurance at the Borrowers expense and to seek reimbursement from the
Borrower. Each casualty policy is the insurers valid and binding obligation, is in full force and
effect, and will be in full force and effect, to GMAC-RFCs benefit upon the consummation of
the transactions contemplated by the Program Documents and this Client Guide. The Loan
terms permit the maintenance of an escrow account to pay the Premiums for the above
mentioned insurance, and the Client has not waived the requirement of such escrow account
unless permitted by GMAC-RFC or required by applicable law.
(S) Primary Mortgage Insurance
If required by this Client Guide, primary mortgage insurance has been obtained, the

the Mortgaged Premises is at least equal to the appraised Value stated on the Loan
appraisal, or if an Automated Valuation Model (AVM) is permitted, the Value on the AVM,
except to the extent that the market Value of the Mortgaged Premises is lower than the
appraised or AVM Value due to the effect of any toxic materials or other environmental
hazards of which neither the appraiser nor the Client has actual knowledge or reasonable
grounds to suspect.

(U) Enforceability; Enforcement Provisions


Each Note and Security Instrument constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the
Borrower enforceable in accordance with its terms except as limited by bankruptcy,
insolvency or other similar laws affecting generally the enforcement of creditors rights.
Each Security Instrument contains customary and enforceable provisions which render the
rights and remedies of the holder adequate to realize the benefits of the security against the
Mortgaged Premises, including: (i) in the case of a Security Instrument designated as a
deed of trust, by trustee's sale, (ii) by summary foreclosure, if available under applicable
law; and (iii) otherwise by foreclosure, and there are no homestead or other exemptions or
dower, courtesy or other rights or interests available to the Borrower or the Borrowers
spouse, survivors or estate or any other person or entity that would, or could, interfere with
such right to sell at a trustees sale or to foreclose. The Security Instrument and any riders to
the Security Instrument must be signed by any person with an actual or potential interest in
the property. Title holders have an actual interest in the property and must sign the Security
Instrument and riders. Non-Borrowing spouses who are not in title may have an actual or
potential interest in the property under State law and may be required to sign the Security
Instrument and rider in some States in order for the holder of the Security Instrument to
obtain, protect and enforce its lien. The Client will obtain the signature of the non-Borrowing
spouse on the Security Instrument and riders or other documentation, as allowed by law, if
such signature is necessary to protect the interest of the holder of the Security Instrument.
(V) Holder-In-Due-Course
The Client is the owner and holder-in-due-course of each Note and is named as mortgagee/
beneficiary or assignee under each Security Instrument, and all Loan Documents
requiring execution have been appropriately executed, witnessed or notarized by the persons
whose names appear as signatories and witnesses, or, as appropriate, notaries who
constitute the valid and binding legal obligation of the Borrower, enforceable in accordance
with their respective terms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to adjustable-rate
mortgage Loans (ARMs), the Client represents and warrants that there are no claims to the
Note on the part of any person or defenses of any party to the Note other than those that
validly could be raised against a holder-in-due-course.
(W)Trustee Designated
With respect to each Security Instrument that is a deed of trust, a trustee duly qualified
under applicable law to serve as such is properly named, designated and serving.
(X) No Fees Due Trustee
Except in connection with a trustees sale after default by the Borrower, no fees or expenses
are payable by the Client or GMAC-RFC to the trustee under any Security Instrument that is
a deed of trust.
(Y) Execution of Documents
All agreements, contracts, assignments, endorsements and issuances of checks or drafts,
reports, Loan Documents or other papers related to a Loan that are required by this Client
Guide to be executed by the Client have been properly executed by an officer on behalf of
the Client pursuant to a duly adopted Resolution of Board of Directors.

creating any of the liens granted as security for the Home Equity Loan, and the Home Equity
Loan does not violate any term or condition imposed by any such document.
(E) No Defaults
The Borrower is not in default or otherwise in violation of any terms or conditions of the

Equity Loan to the Client or any agent or correspondent originating for the Client, must
comply with applicable State, federal and other laws.
(G) Non-Standard First Mortgage Loan Document
No Non-Standard Document evidencing, securing or otherwise relating to any first mortgage

Non-Standard Documents
While GMAC-RFC is not obligated to purchase a Loan secured by Non-Standard
Documents, it may choose to do so from time to time. In this event, the Client represents
and warrants that:
(1) The terms of the Non-Standard Documents do not violate and are fully enforceable
under applicable laws and regulations.
(2) The Non-Standard Documents contain covenants of the Borrower similar to those
outlined in the Uniform Instruments of this Client Guide. The Non-Standard
Documents should also grant rights to the Client (including default and foreclosure
rights, rights to inspect and rights upon condemnation) equivalent to the Uniform
Instruments.
(3) The Non-Standard Documents contain a fully enforceable due-on-sale or due-ontransfer clause if allowed by applicable law in accordance with this Client Guide.
(4) The Non-Standard Documents grant no more favorable rights to the Borrower upon
default and foreclosure than are contained in the Uniform Instruments for the
jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Premises are located.
(5) If it is necessary to protect the interest of the Notes holder, the Non-Standard
Documents should contain a specific waiver by the Borrower and the Borrowers
spouse of:
Any statutory right of redemption after foreclosure
Any right of homestead, dower, curtesy or similar marital right
(6) The Non-Standard Documents expressly permit the Client to advance sums for
unpaid insurance Premiums, property taxes, and/or any other payments necessary
to protect the Value of the Mortgaged Premises or the rights of the Note holder in the
Mortgaged Premises. The Non-Standard Documents permit, but do not require, the
Client to add such amounts to the indebtedness secured by the Security
Instrument. The Client additionally warrants that no capitalization of any such
payments or any delinquent principal and interest obligations will occur in the future.
(7) The Non-Standard Documents contain fully enforceable acceleration clauses for the
Borrowers default in payments and for the Borrowers breach of any covenant.
(8) The Non-Standard Documents provide for monthly principal and interest
payments due on the first day of the month, fully amortized over 30 years or less
from the date of the Note. The interest portion of each payment is determined by
computing 30 days interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Note as of
the scheduled installment date.
(9) The Non-Standard Documents provide that if more than one person executes the
Note, then each signatorys obligation under the Note is joint and several.

(12) The Non-Standard Documents provide for a late charge in compliance with the
requirements set forth in this Client Guide.
(13) If any of the Mortgaged Premises covered by the Non-Standard Documents is
rental property (one to four family units), then the documents should contain
covenants and agreements of the Borrower, including an enforceable assignment of
rents, substantially similar to the covenants and agreements contained in the
Uniform Instruments. These documents should also grant rights to the Client
equivalent to those contained in the Uniform Instruments.
(14) If any of the Mortgaged Premises covered by the Non-Standard Documents is part of
a Planned Unit Development, then these documents should contain covenants
and agreements of the Borrower. These documents should also grant rights to the
Client equivalent to the Uniform Instruments.
(15) The use of Non-Standard Documents will not preclude the Client from performing
all servicing and accounting requirements outlined under this Client Guide.
The foregoing representations and warranties with respect to Loans evidenced or secured by
Non-Standard Documents shall be in addition to all other representations and warranties
contained in this Client Guide or in the Client Contract.

A205

Integrity of Information
The Client is responsible for credit and property underwriting regardless of whether the
information was provided by the Client, an entity related to the Client or designated by the
Client to perform the function. This includes credit information, appraisals, or other
documents/information used in the Loan's evaluation.
The Client should take all steps necessary to ensure that each Loan sold to GMAC-RFC has
been prudently originated and underwritten, and that all information supplied by, on behalf
of, or concerning the Borrower is true, accurate and complete. The Client should ensure that
interested parties are sufficiently independent from the Loan transaction and that adequate
organizational controls are in place to ensure the independence, validity and reliability of the
Loan information.
In addition, the Client should implement prudent practices when relying on designated
agents (such as escrow companies, title companies, etc.) in order to ensure that they comply
with its instructions and that the integrity of the Loan transaction has been maintained.

A207
Third-Party Originators
When relying on the actions or services of third-party originators, the Client should establish
qualification and eligibility standards. The Client should consider the functions being
performed by the third-party originator in establishing these standards. These standards
should be reviewed periodically to ensure ongoing eligibility by the third-party originator.
The Client is encouraged to include the following items in formulating its qualification and
eligibility standards and procedures:
(1) Review personnel resumes and references of management and Loan origination staff
(Loan officers, processors, underwriters, closers, etc.)
(2) Establish minimum net worth requirements and evaluate the financial viability of the
firm on an ongoing basis
(3) Establish minimum requirements for errors and omissions insurance and fidelity
bond coverage and monitor ongoing compliance with these standards

control program through both pre- and post-closing quality control audits to ensure the
quality of Loan information.

Events of Default
Any one or more of the following events constitute an Event of Default:
(1) The Client has not complied with one or more of the requirements (including any

timely manner, including information required under Regulation AB or any successor
regulation, that is true, complete and accurate.
(4) The Borrower or any other person or entity involved in the Loan transaction or in its
underwriting or documentation (including any appraiser, broker, third-party
originator, credit reporting agency, or other provider of underwriting information)
has made any false representation and/or has failed to provide information that is
true, complete and accurate in connection with such transaction, whether or not the
Client was a party to or had knowledge of such misrepresentation or incorrect
information.
(5) Occurrence of an Event of Servicer Default with respect to any Loans serviced by
the Client.
(6) Termination of servicing for cause is a basis for the Clients immediate
disqualification or suspension. Action taken by GMAC-RFC to terminate servicing
may be merged with an action to disqualify, suspend or inactivate the Client.

Remedies of GMAC-RFC
(A) Non-Exclusive, Cumulative Remedies
GMAC-RFC may exercise any remedy outlined in this Client Guide or as allowed by law or in
equity. GMAC-RFCs exercise of one or more remedies in connection with a particular Event
of Default will not prevent it from exercising:
One or more other remedies in connection with the same Event of Default
Any other rights which it may have at law or in equity

(B) Waiver of Defaults


GMAC-RFC may waive any default by Client in the performance of Clients obligations
hereunder and its consequences, but only by a written waiver specifying the nature and
terms of such waiver. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or
impair any right consequent thereto, nor shall any delay by GMAC-RFC in exercising, or
failure to exercise, any right arising from such default affect or impair GMAC-RFCs rights as
to such default or any subsequent default.
(C) Survival of Remedies
GMAC-RFCs remedies for breach of the representations, warranties and covenants shall
survive the sale and delivery of the Loan to GMAC-RFC and funding of the related purchase
price by GMAC-RFC, and will continue in full force and effect for the remaining life of the
Loans, notwithstanding any termination of this Client Guide and the related Funding
Documents, or any restrictive or qualified endorsement on any mortgage Note or
assignment of mortgage or Loan approval or other examination of or failure to examine any
related mortgage Loan file by GMAC-RFC.

A210
Repurchase
(A) Repurchase Obligations
If GMAC-RFC determines that an Event of Default has occurred with respect to a specific
Loan, the Client agrees to repurchase the Loan and its servicing (if the Loan was sold
servicing released) within 30 days of receiving a repurchase letter or other written
notification from GMAC-RFC.
If the Client discovers an Event of Default, it should give GMAC-RFC prompt written notice.
Such notice should include a written description of the Event of Default. Upon receipt of this
notice, GMAC-RFC will review these materials and any additional information or
documentation that the Client believes may influence GMAC-RFCs decision to require
repurchase. If GMAC-RFC decides to require repurchase, the Client shall repurchase the Loan
and the servicing (if the Loan was sold servicing released) within 30 days after GMAC-RFCs
decision is communicated to Client in writing.
To expedite the wiring of funds to GMAC-RFC, the Client should complete the servicing
transfer instruction form provided by GMAC-RFC. GMAC-RFC will send the form to the Client
along with the notification of repurchase.
GMAC-RFC is not required to demand repurchase within any particular period of time, and
may elect not to require immediate repurchase. However, any delay in making this demand
does not constitute a waiver by GMAC-RFC of any of its rights or remedies.
Where GMAC-RFC determines that repurchase of a Loan and/or the servicing is not
appropriate, the Client shall pay GMAC-RFC all losses, costs and expenses incurred by GMACRFC and/or the Loans Servicer as a result of an Event of Default. This includes all
reasonable attorneys fees and other costs and expenses incurred in connection with
enforcement efforts undertaken.

Upon the Clients satisfaction of its repurchase obligation, GMAC-RFC will endorse the Note
evidencing the Loan in blank and will deliver it and other pertinent Loan Documents to the
Client. If GMAC-RFC acquired title to any of the real property securing the Loan pursuant to a
foreclosure sale and has not disposed of such property, it will transfer such property to the
Client on a quit claim basis or, if required by State law, a warranty deed basis. However, if
GMAC-RFC has disposed of the real property securing the Loan, the Loan Documents will not
be returned to the Client unless requested.
If the Client is also the Servicer of a Loan repurchased by reason of the occurrence of an
Event of Default, GMAC-RFC will not reimburse the Client for any principal, interest or other
advances made by the Client with respect to that Loan.
If, for any particular Loan, Client has complied with its property valuation documentation
requirements (as described under Specific Representations, Warranties and Covenants
Concerning Individual Loans in the Underwriting; Appraisal; Appraiser Section) by
providing a GMAC-RFC Qualified AVM in lieu of an appraisal, where the Loan Program terms
permit the use of a Qualified AVM as the sole documentation of property valuation
underlying such Loan, and provided a Qualified AVM was obtained by Client in good faith
directly from Qualified AVM Vendors (See GMAC-RFC Exhibit 16G05, Automated Valuation
Model (AVM) Approved Vendors) and has been submitted to GMAC-RFC in its original,
unaltered form as issued by the Qualified AVM Vendor; then, if an Event of Default related
to such Loan arises solely out of the validity and accuracy of the property valuation amount
stated in the Qualified AVM, but provided that in all other aspects the Loan was eligible for
purchase by GMAC-RFC at the time it was submitted for purchase by Client, GMAC-RFC will
not exercise its right to demand repurchase for such particular Loan by reason of such
particular Event of Default. However, GMAC-RFC may continue to exercise its right to demand
repurchase if GMAC-RFC reasonably believes that Client or any third party originator
obtained a Qualified AVM in bad faith, such as by using a Qualified AVM where Client or the
third party originator had reason to know that the mortgaged property was materially
different than that described in the Qualified AVM or that the description in the Qualified AVM
should not be considered reliable at the time the Loan was sold to GMAC-RFC.
(B) Repurchase Price of First Mortgage Programs
In the event the Client is obligated to repurchase a Loan the Client must pay to GMAC-RFC a
repurchase price equal to the sum of:
The actual principal balance of the Loan at the time of repurchase (if the Client sold the
Loan to GMAC-RFC at a discount or a Premium, the repurchase price above will be
adjusted to reflect the actual principal balance minus the discount percentage
multiplied by the actual principal balance, or plus the Premium percentage multiplied
by the actual principal balance, as appropriate, including that price paid for Servicing
Rights), plus
All accrued and unpaid interest on the Loan through the last day of the month of the
date of repurchase; plus
All interest, principal and other advances made to investors and all out of pocket costs
and expenses of any kind incurred by GMAC-RFC and/or the primary Servicer in
connection with the Loan, including, but not limited to, advances for taxes or
insurance, and repair, foreclosure and insurance costs and reasonable attorneys fees;
plus
The amount of the Buyout Fee as calculated in the Extension and Buyout Fees
Section of Chapter 9A, Commitments; plus

In the event that GMAC-RFC or any of its Affiliates is required to repurchase the Loan
from any subsequent assignee, then any additional amount as may be required to
make the repurchase price that the Client is obligated to pay hereunder equal to the
repurchase price that GMAC-RFC or its Affiliate is required to pay to such subsequent
assignee; minus
The net amount of any proceeds realized by the owner of the Loan upon the final
liquidation of the Loan or the Mortgaged Premises to an unrelated third party.
The Designated Servicer will return to the Client any escrow funds, unapplied funds and
prepaid principal and interest installments.
GMAC-RFC may demand that a Client repurchase, and Client must repurchase, a Loan after
foreclosure even if the full amount of its outstanding debt was bid on by or on behalf of the
Loans owner to acquire the Mortgaged Premises at the foreclosure sale. In the event the
Client is obligated to repurchase a Loan after foreclosure, the repurchase price shall be
calculated using the formula above, however Scheduled Principal Balance shall be
substituted for the actual principal balance.
(C) Repurchase Price of Home Equity Program
In the event the Client is obligated to repurchase a Home Equity Loan, the Client must, upon
repurchase, service such Home Equity Loan. The repurchase price for such Home Equity Loan
shall be equal to the sum of:
The unpaid principal balance of the Home Equity Loan
All accrued and unpaid interest on the Home Equity Loan
The amount of all fees and/or purchase Premium paid, if any, to the Client by GMACRFC for origination of the Home Equity Loan
All fees paid to any Servicer or sub-servicer of a Home Equity Loan by reason of the
termination of that Servicers or Sub-Servicers right to service that Home Equity Loan
All costs incurred or paid by GMAC-RFC or any Servicer in collecting or enforcing the
Home Equity Loan, including, without limitation, interest or other costs paid to bring or
maintain a prior lien current or up to date, costs to insure or pay delinquent taxes,
attorneys fees, court costs, appraisal and title expenses and other similar costs or
expenses (collectively, Foreclosure Expenses)
Any additional amount GMAC-RFC or any of its Affiliates is required to pay to
repurchase the Home Equity Loan from a subsequent assignee
In lieu of repurchasing a Home Equity Loan that has not yet been foreclosed and accepting
the servicing of such Home Equity Loan, GMAC-RFC may in its sole discretion allow Client to
pay to GMAC-RFC the Estimated Loss (as defined below). Estimated Loss, as it relates to
each Home Equity Loan subject to repurchase, shall equal the product of:
120% multiplied by the result of:
Repurchase price as calculated above, plus
Accrued interest on the Home Equity Loan through the date GMAC-RFC estimates that
the Home Equity Loan will be fully liquidated (which in the case of a foreclosure, shall
mean the date that GMAC-RFC estimates that the Mortgaged Premises will be sold to
a third party and which in any other case means the date that GMAC-RFC estimates
that all collection efforts on the Home Equity Loan will be abandoned) and estimated
foreclosure and other enforcement expenses for the entire collection process, less

Amount by which the current market Value of the Mortgaged Premises as determined
by GMAC-RFC using valuation services provided by an independent third party exceeds
the current outstanding amount of indebtedness secured by the Mortgaged Premises
that is senior to the Home Equity Loan.
(D) Repurchase Price of a Servicing Released Loan
In the event the Client repurchases a Loan for which the servicing has also been sold to
GMAC-RFC, the Client will also be required to repurchase the servicing. If the repurchase of
the servicing of the Loan is for any reason other than a breach of the Delinquency Payoff/
Liquidation warranty contained in the Servicing Released Chapter 8, the Client must pay to
GMAC-RFC a repurchase price equal to the original Servicing Released Premium (SRP)
percentage multiplied by the actual unpaid principal balance at the time of repurchase.
In no event however, will the required repurchase Servicing Released Premium be greater
than the original Servicing Released Premium paid to the Client.
The Designated Servicer will return to the Client any escrow funds, Temporary Buydown
funds, unapplied funds and prepaid principal and interest installments. The Client will be
required to reimburse the Designated Servicer for any delinquent principal and interest
advances, and any escrow advances and foreclosure expenses they have made and not
recovered on a repurchased Loan.
(E) Repurchase As a Result of Conversion
The Client (or, if the Client has transferred servicing of the Loans, the Servicer) shall
repurchase a Loan which has converted from an ARM to a fixed-rate mortgage. The Servicer
must submit the ARM Conversion Notification Report no less than 15 days prior to the
conversion date.
If the Client or Servicer repurchases a converted Loan and subsequently resells that
converted Loan to GMAC-RFC, all the Clients representations and warranties with respect to
that Loan shall survive such repurchase and resale. In addition, the Client shall be subject to
all rights and remedies (including repurchase) available to GMAC-RFC as a result of any
misrepresentation or breach of warranty with respect to that Loan prior to conversion.
The Client shall also submit the modification agreement if requested by GMAC-RFC or its
assigns.
After its receipt of the Loan funds, GMAC-RFC will endorse the Note to the party which
repurchased the Loan. The Loan will then be assigned to such party, and all credit
documentation will be returned. Failure to submit the ARM Conversion Notification Report in
a timely manner may delay the receipt of the endorsed Note and other Legal Documents.
The Servicer shall submit a Payoff/Liquidation Report and wire transfer Loan funds to the
GMAC-RFC Loan Accounting Department no later than the last Business Day prior to the
conversion date. The Servicer must remit interest for the entire month preceding the
conversion date. The Client shall attach a copy of the ARM Conversion Notification Report.
If the appropriate amount is not wired on time, GMAC-RFC will charge a late payment fee.
This fee will equal the amount due multiplied by the Prime Rate plus 3% multiplied by the
number of days overdue divided by 365. The term Prime Rate shall mean the highest
quoted Prime Rate printed in The Wall Street Journal in its regular column Money Rates on
the first Business Day of the month in which the payment was due and not paid. If the
Prime Rate is not available, GMAC-RFC will determine a comparable rate.

(F) Substitution
Instead of requiring the Client to repurchase a Loan as provided above, GMAC-RFC, at its
sole discretion, may allow the Client to substitute another Loan satisfactory to GMAC-RFC in
place of the original Loan, within 10 days of notification by GMAC-RFC, unless otherwise
notified. If the substituted Loan contains terms different from those of the Loan that it is
replacing, a purchase price adjustment will be calculated by GMAC-RFC based on market
changes and Loan characteristics. Every Loan substituted will be subject to all agreements,
terms, conditions, representations and warranties in this Client Guide as of the Substitution
Date.
In the event a Loan is eligible for purchase by GMAC-RFC but the servicing is ineligible for
purchase by GMAC-RFC, the Loan will be purchased and the sale of servicing denied. GMACRFC will not allow the Client to substitute another servicing released Loan.
(G) Cost of Transfer Fees Due to Repurchase
The Client agrees that, if it is required to repurchase a Loan and the related Servicing, it will
pay all documentary stamp taxes, recording fees, transfer taxes and all other expenses
payable in connection with the repurchase and will indemnify and hold harmless GMAC-RFC
and the Designated Servicer against all losses, costs and expenses, including attorney
fees, resulting from such required repurchases or the breach giving rise hereto.
(H) Notice and Appeal
The Client may appeal GMAC-RFCs decision by providing any additional information or
documentation it believes may affect GMAC-RFCs determination.
Send all notifications and appeals to:
GMAC-RFC
One Meridian Crossings
Suite 100
Minneapolis, MN 55423
Attention: Repurchase Management
Such information and documentation must be received within 30 days after the Clients
receipt of a repurchase letter or similar written notification from GMAC-RFC. GMAC-RFC will
review all appeals and advise the Client in writing of the appeal decision. GMAC-RFC will in its
sole discretion determine the validity of any appeal filed by the Client. If GMAC-RFCs
decision remains firm following an appeal, the Client shall repurchase the Loan and its
servicing (if the Loan was sold servicing released) within 10 days of notification by GMACRFC, in writing, that the appeal has been denied.

prepayment penalty from the Borrower, and GMAC-RFC, in its sole discretion, will determine
whether or not to collect the prepayment penalty.

Multiple Loans to One Borrower
GMAC-RFC will purchase a maximum of four Loans per Borrower. This number includes any
open Loans GMAC-RFC may have previously purchased for a particular Borrower. Within that
four-Loan limitation, the maximum aggregate dollar amount that GMAC-RFC will allow per
Borrower is as follows:
$2 million if the subject transaction is Jumbo A, Expanded Criteria, Payment Option, or
Second Mortgage Loan
$650,000 if the subject transaction is a Home Solution Loan
$1 million if the subject transaction is an AlterNet Loan
Additional Terms for Payment Option Program:
In general, GMAC-RFC permits up to four Loans per Borrower. However, if any one
Payment Option Loan is in the amount of $1.25 million or more, that Borrower may not
have any other Loans with GMAC-RFC.
Notwithstanding the $2 million maximum aggregate dollar amount limit, one Payment
Option Loan per Borrower may be in an amount up to $6 million, so long as that
Borrower does not have any other Loans with GMAC-RFC.
These dollar amounts include the outstanding principal balance of any open Loans GMAC-RFC
may have previously purchased for a particular Borrower. This policy applies whether the
Loans are sold to GMAC-RFC by the same Client or by different Clients. Joint ownership is
considered the same as total ownership of an individual, regardless of type or amount of
property and will count as one Loan for purposes of this limitation.

the individuals establishing the trust will be used to qualify for the
mortgage and that individual will occupy the security property and sign the
mortgage instruments.
The trustee or one of the co-trustees must be either:
The settlor of the trust; or

(B) Rights of Ownership


The rights associated with ownership are given to an individual who acquires an interest in
real estate.
(1) Fee Simple
The term Fee Simple describes the greatest possible interest a person can have in
real estate, including the right to dispose of the property or pass it on to ones heirs.
(2) Leasehold
A Leasehold is an estate or interest in real property held by virtue of a lease. In
other words, a Leasehold refers to land which is leased to the individual(s) who owns
the structure.
GMAC-RFC will purchase Loans on Mortgaged Premises in Leasehold estates as
long as the Client complies with the warranties and other provisions outlined below:
(a) Ground Lease Analysis
For Loans on Mortgaged Premises in Leasehold estates, the Client must analyze
the ground lease, complete the Ground Lease Analysis Form (Freddie Mac Form
461) and submit the analysis form with the credit package. GMAC-RFC may
decline to purchase a particular Leasehold Loan based on underwriting
considerations from a ground lease analysis.
(b) General Warranties
For each Loan on Mortgaged Premises in a Leasehold estate sent to GMACRFC for purchase, the Client warrants that:
The lease is of a fee or a sublease executed by the fee owner and the
sublessor
The use of the Leasehold or ground rent estates for residential properties is
an accepted practice in the Mortgaged Premises area
Residential properties in this area and of this type are readily marketable
Loans covering such properties are commonly acceptable to Fannie Mae,
Freddie Mac and private institutional mortgage investors
The lease, sublease or conveyance reserving ground rents and their
provisions are in a format commonly accepted by private institutional
mortgage investors in the Mortgaged Premises area
The lease and sublease, if any, are recorded as required, and no party is in
breach of any provision
The Leasehold is in full force and effect and is not subject to any prior lien
or encumbrance which could terminate it or subject it to any charge or
penalty
The remaining term or exercised renewal of the lease and sublease with
any renewals enforceable by the mortgagee must not terminate earlier than
10 years after the Loans maturity date
The sublease payments are at least equal to the lease payments. The
sublease payments are due no less frequently than the lease payments

(c) Provisions Excluded From the Lease


The Client warrants that the lease and sublease, if any, do not:
Permit increases in the rent (lease payment) other than at a specified date
or time interval, unless the rent increase provision becomes operative more
than ten years after the Loans maturity date. Increases based on cost of
living or other economic indicators or reappraisals are not acceptable within
the term of the Loan plus ten years after its maturity date, unless they have
the effect of limiting increased payment amounts to the lesser of the
specific rate or the amount resulting from a new index or reappraisal
Provide for termination of the Loan for the lessee's default unless the
Leasehold mortgagee receives written notice of, and an opportunity to
cure, the default
Provide for Loans termination in the event of damage or destruction as
long as the Leasehold mortgage is in existence
Prohibit the Leasehold mortgagee to be insured under hazard insurance
policies
Prohibit the payment of hazard insurance proceeds to the Leasehold
mortgagee or insurance trustee
Prohibit the payment to the Leasehold mortgagee of any condemnation
award to which the mortgagee is entitled or
Prohibit the Leasehold mortgagee from exercising renewal options
(d) Provisions Included in the Lease
The Client warrants that the lease or sublease:
Permits the mortgaging of the Leasehold estate

Grants to the Leasehold mortgagee the right to acquire in its own name (or
in the name of its nominee) the rights of the lessee upon foreclosure or
assignment in lieu of foreclosure

Transactions
This Chapter describes the various transaction requirements that apply to all GMAC-RFC Loan
Programs. Generally, eligibility policies that vary from one standard Loan Program to another
are described in the individual Loan Program Chapters. In most cases, differences will not be
referenced in this Chapter.

B300
Arms Length and Non-Arms Length Transactions
(A) Arms Length Transaction
An arms length transaction occurs when the parties involved are entirely independent of one
another. That is, all parties deal with one another as strangers and have no reason to collude.
(B) Non-Arms Length Transaction
If a direct relationship exists between any of the parties to a transaction, including the
Borrower (buyer), Client (if applicable), employer, lender, broker or appraiser the transaction
will be considered non-arms length. Vertically integrated companies with common ownership
(i.e., broker, appraiser, lender, title company, etc.) are considered non-arms length. In some
cases, non-arms length transactions may be acceptable, such as when a parent sells a house
to a child or when a relative inherits a home. In this case, the Value must be fully and
sufficiently documented. However, in most cases non-arms length transactions are not
allowed.
Additionally, in purchase transactions where the seller is a corporation, partnership or any
other business entity, the Client must ensure that the Borrower is not an owner of the
business entity selling the subject property.

(A) Purchase Mortgages


A purchase mortgage Loan involves the purchase of a Mortgaged Premises, as defined by
a sale and purchase agreement executed by the Borrower and home-seller which represents
a first and/or second lien on the property. GMAC-RFC requires that the home-seller is the
owner of record. In transactions where the home-seller is a corporation, partnership or any
other business entity, the Client must ensure that the Borrower is not one of the owners of
the business entity selling the subject property.
For purchase transactions, where the seller is not a lending or government institution, the
following restrictions also apply:
A property that is sold within 90 days1 after acquisition by the home-seller is not
eligible
A property that is sold within 91 to 180 days1 after acquisition by the home-seller is
eligible with the following restriction:
If the sale price of the property is more than the home-sellers purchase price, the
appraisal must include an acceptable explanation and documentation to support
the difference, including a description of any improvements that were made.
If the increase in Value is due to remodeling or renovation of the property, the
appraiser must provide contracts, receipts and acceptable photos of all
improvements to support the increase in Value
Purchase transactions do not allow for cash back to the Borrower at closing.
If the Borrower receives a refund of the original cash deposit at closing, evidence of
payment of the deposit is required (e.g., cancelled check)
If the Borrower receives cash back for prorated taxes at closing, the taxes must be
paid or the funds must be put into an escrow account
Unless specifically allowed by the Loan Program, and within limitations imposed by applicable
State laws, closing costs may not be financed as part of a purchase transaction (with the
exception of mortgage insurance). See the Mortgage Insurance Section in Chapter 3F,
Insurance and Survey Requirements, for more information.

Calculated from the Note date when the Seller purchased the property, to the date of the signed purchase contract

(B) Rate/Term Refinance Mortgages


A rate/term refinance mortgage Loan represents a first lien and is used to pay off an existing
mortgage(s) or lien(s) with a new Loan. This Loan secures the Mortgaged Premises in
order to acquire a different interest rate or Loan term. Cash removal, other than incidental, is
not permitted.
A rate/term refinance mortgage is a Loan where proceeds are distributed for one or more of
the following purposes:
Reasonable and customary Loan cost or fees (including prepaid items) within
limitations imposed by applicable laws
Pay off first mortgage
Pay off of 12 months seasoned closed-end subordinate mortgages
Incidental cash back not to exceed the greater of $2,000 or 1% of the Loan amount
Pay off property tax liens
Refinance to buyout ex-spouse as a result of a divorce is permitted subject to the
following:
The Borrower receives no cash proceeds from the transaction (other than the
incidental cash back allowed)
The property must be Borrowers primary residence
The file contains an executed copy of the divorce decree or the property
settlement agreement
Cash Recapture transaction. There are instances when a Borrower may purchase a
property utilizing only cash funds, and then wishes to refinance to recapture some of
the cash they put into the purchase. The following guidelines apply:
The refinance must occur within 6 months of the original Purchase Date.
The Borrower must document the source of funds used to facilitate the cash
purchase and the funds must be seasoned (i.e. Borrower must be able to prove
the cash funds were available within their own accounts prior to the close of the
cash transaction.)
Lesser of the original sales price or appraised Value is used for purposes of
calculating LTV/CLTV
Home equity lines of credit which are being paid off from the proceeds of a refinance
transaction must meet the guidelines for junior liens. GMAC-RFC will consider funds in
excess of 1% of the new Loan amount or $2,000 whichever is greater, received from
an home equity line of credit within 12 months prior to a new Loan as a Cash-Out
Refinance Mortgage. However, if the Borrower used the funds for home
improvements, for purchase funds or withdrew the funds 12 months prior to the new
Loans date, the Client may classify the Loan as a rate/term refinance Loan.

Transactions

Junior liens (such as a second trust deed or home equity line of credit) may be paid off
from the proceeds of the rate/term refinance mortgage Loan, provided they were:
Incurred in the purchase of the Mortgaged Premises or for documented home
improvements
Incurred for any other purpose and were incurred at least 12 months prior to the
date of the Loan
Any other junior lien is considered cash equity and must be subordinated to the new
rate/term refinance Loan, paid off from the Borrowers other funds or treated as a
cash-out refinance transaction.
(C) Cash-Out Refinance Mortgages
Funds distributed (resulting) from Cash-Out Refinance Mortgage Loans may be used for
purposes such as:
Reasonable and customary closing cost or fees (including prepaid items) within
limitations imposed by applicable laws
Debt consolidation
Cash back over and above incidental amount allowed greater of $2,000 or 1% of the
Loan amount
Pay off of non-seasoned (less than 12 months) closed-end subordinate mortgages
Pay off of lines of credit with cash advances in excess of 1% of the new Loan amount or
$2,000 whichever is greater within the past 12 months
Pay off of Federal and State tax liens
GMAC-RFC does not allow removal of equity for a Borrowers business.
(D) Construction/Permanent Mortgages
A construction-to-permanent mortgage Loan is a Loan obtained to pay off an interim (shortterm) Loan, used to finance the construction of the subject property. One-time closing
construction-to-permanent mortgages are not permitted.
(1) Arms Length Transaction
When paying off an interim construction Loan represented by an arms length
transaction, Client must treat the Loan using one of the following three methods:
(a) Purchase
When the Borrower wishes to recapture funds paid out of pocket and to pay off
an existing construction Loan, the Loan will be treated as a purchase transaction
and documentation evidencing the acquisition cost of the property will be
required.
(b) Rate/Term Refinance
When the Borrower does not require cash recapture and the proceeds from the
subject Loan are being used to pay off the construction financing and allowable
closing costs, the Loan will be treated as a rate/term refinance.

(c) Cash-out Refinance


When the Borrower wishes to withdraw equity (cash back to the Borrower) from
the subject transaction, the Loan will be treated as a cash-out refinance.
(2) Non-arms Length Transaction
In most cases, non-arms length transactions are not allowed. When allowed, the
Client must fully document the cost of materials and labor plus the Value of the lot.
See Arms Length and Non-Arms Length Transactions Section in this chapter
for details.
(E) Contract for Deed/Land Contracts
A mortgage Loan paying off a contract for deed must be treated as a refinance. All Truth-inLending Act requirements applicable to refinance transactions must be followed.
Note: Some States do not recognize the Borrower as having an equitable position in the
property until they have made their last payment under the contract for deed, and therefore,
would consider our transaction to be a purchase. However, GMAC-RFC has elected to treat all
Loans paying off a contract for deed as a refinance.

Note and/or Security Instrument have been modified or converted from an adjustable-rate
mortgage (ARM) to a fixed-rate mortgage (FRM) and the original Note allowed for such
modification or conversion.
GMAC-RFC will purchase converted and/or modified ARM Loans after the conversion or
modification has been completed. Specifically, the final ARM payment must be applied before
GMAC-RFC can purchase the Loan as a converted ARM Loan. Loans where the home is under
construction and then converts to a permanent structure are not eligible.
Interest Only feature not allowed on converted and/or modified Loans.
Loans must comply with the individual Program Criteria in effect at the time the delivery
Commitment is ordered as well as other representations and warranties.

Loans for which the original Note and/or Security Instrument provides for a

criteria in the Chapter with the following additional requirements:
(a) Generally, the Client is not required to provide updated Credit Documents. The
Client must, however, provide a payment history for the Loan covering a
minimum of 12 months preceding the date the Loan is submitted for purchase or
for underwriting approval. The Borrower may not have had a late payment of 30
days or worse since the inception of the Loan or in the previous 12 months if the
Loan has been seasoned more than 12 months.
(b) In addition to the required payment histories, the Client must provide new credit
documentation if the interest rate of the converted or modified Loan exceeds the
interest rate in effect at any time within the 12 months prior to conversion by
more than 200 basis points.
(c) The Client is not required to provide a new appraisal or a recertification of Value
but the Client represents and warrants to GMAC-RFC that the current market
Value of the Mortgaged Premises is at least equal to the appraised Value on
the original appraisal.

(d) As of the time the Loan is to be converted or modified, no funds in addition to


those advanced at the time of the Loan origination shall have been advanced.
If the modification agreement is executed by individual(s) different than those who
executed the original Note, the Client must provide documentation that
substantiates the ability of the individual(s) executing the modification agreement to
repay the Loan.
The LTV ratio will be calculated using the balance at conversion or modification as
the original principal balance.
(2) Legal Documentation
In addition to the modification documents listed in the Converted/Modified
LoansNot Contemplated by Original Note Section of this Client Guide, The
Freddie Mac Form 3180, Agreement to Convert, may be used to modify a Loan
evidenced by a Convertible ARM Note.
Note: Convertible ARM Loans previously sold to GMAC-RFC must be repurchased
upon conversion. See the Consolidation, Repurchase or Substitution Section of this
Client Guide for repurchase requirements.
Since the original Note provided for conversion or modification, it may not be
necessary for the Client to record the modification agreement. The Client must
determine if recording is necessary to ensure a first lien position in its jurisdiction.
Any variation to the form of modification described in the Converted/Modified
LoansNot Contemplated by Original Note Section of this Client Guide, must be
approved in writing in advance by GMAC-RFC.
(3) Amendments to Security Instruments Following Consolidations
An amendment to a Security Instrument reflecting an election by a Borrower to
exercise an ARM conversion option need be executed and filed only if, under
applicable law, it is necessary to do so in order to ensure the Security Instrument
will continue to secure all interest on the Note, as well as all of the Borrowers other
obligations under the Loan Documents following such conversion.
(I) Converted/Modified LoansNot Contemplated by Original Note
GMAC-RFC defines converted and/or modified Loans as existing permanent financing Loans
where the original terms of the Note and/or Security Instrument have been modified or
converted from an adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) to a fixed-rate mortgage and the original
Note did not allow for such modification or conversion.
GMAC-RFC will purchase converted and/or modified ARM Loans after the conversion or
modification has been completed. Specifically, the final ARM payment must be applied before
GMAC-RFC can purchase the Loan as a converted ARM Loan. Loans wherein the home is
under construction and then converts to a permanent structure are not eligible.
Interest Only feature not allowed on converted and/or modified Loans.
(1) Underwriting
Loans for which the original Note and/or Security Instrument does not provide for a
conversion or modification must be underwritten according to this Chapter with the

(2) Legal Documentation
In addition to the Legal Documents required in the Delivery For Funding and the
Required Final Documents Sections of this Client Guide, Clients must submit one of
the following additional Legal Documents as applicable:
Fannie Mae Form 3179 - Loan Modification Agreement (providing for
modification to a Fixed Interest Rate)
GMAC-RFC Form 16A02 - Loan Modification Agreement with Exhibits A and B
attached (providing for modification to a Fixed or an Adjustable Interest Rate).
Exhibit A is a standard Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac Note and Exhibit B is a
standard Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac Security Instrument. Attaching these
Exhibits will enable mortgages originated on Non-Standard Documents to
become standardized for sale into the secondary markets.
An original replacement Note evidencing the terms of the Loan, as modified.
Note: Please contact your Acquisition Team representative in Minneapolis for

by a referenced exhibit attached to the Assignment.
Evidence reflecting the first lien position of the new, modified or converted
Loan. A bring down endorsement to the title policy insuring the first lien
priority as of the date of closing, modification or conversion is an acceptable
form of evidence.
Assumption Agreement, if applicable (either the recorded original or a

within 120 days of the purchase as part of the Final Documents package if not
submitted at time of purchase.
GMAC-RFC has provided forms for use in conjunction with this program. However,
before using such forms, Clients must review such forms to ensure that each
complies with laws of the State in which the Loan is made as well as other applicable
law.
(J) Second Mortgage Transactions
A second mortgage is a withdrawal of equity secured by the Mortgaged Premises which, if
not a first lien, is subordinate only to a first lien. Reasonable and customary closing costs or

Financing
This Chapter describes the financing requirements that apply to all GMAC-RFC Loan
Programs. Generally, eligibility policies that vary from one standard Loan Program to another
are described in the individual Loan Program Chapters. In most cases, differences will not be
referenced in this Chapter.

C300
Determining Amount to Be Financed
For any Loan, the amount which may be financed is determined by factors specific to that
Loan, including the type of financing and the Loan-to-Value ratio, as well as the Loan
amount, property type and income determination.

C301
Calculating Loan-to-Value Ratios
(A) Calculating LTV
To calculate the LTV divide the Loan amount by the Value of the Mortgaged Premises.
(B) Determination of Value
The method to determine Value of the Mortgaged Premises for purposes of LTV calculation
varies depending on the transaction type.
(1) First Mortgage Transaction Value
(a) Purchase Mortgage
The Value is determined by the lesser of the appraised Value or the purchase
price as stated on the executed purchase agreement or HUD-1.
(b) Rate/Term Refinance Mortgage
The Value is determined by the appraised Value.

(c) Cash-Out Refinance Mortgage


If the Borrower has owned the Mortgaged Premises less than 12 months, the
Value is determined by the lesser of the following:
The purchase price plus the Value of any documented improvements
including:
Copy of fully executed purchase agreement or HUD-1 closing statement
from purchase transaction
Documented costs of labor and materials
Photographs of improvements
The appraised Value
If the Borrower has owned the property more than 12 months, the Value is
determined by the appraised Value.
(d) Construction/Permanent Mortgage
Newly constructed properties located in new subdivisions must be supported by
comparables both in and out of the subdivision unless resales are available for
comparison.
When treated as a purchase transaction, the Value is determined by the
lesser of the following:
Total documented cost of labor and materials plus the Value of the lot1
or
Appraised Value
When treated as a rate/term refinance, the Value is determined by the
appraised Value.
When treated as a cash-out refinance, the Value is determined as follows:
For Jumbo A, Expanded Criteria, and Payment Option the Value is determined
by the appraised Value.
For Home Solution and AlterNet, the Value is determined by the lesser of:
Total documented cost of labor and materials plus the Value of the lot1
or
Appraised Value
1

Determine the Value of the lot for establishing LTV/CLTV by one of the following:
If the lot was purchased within the past 12 months, the lesser of the appraised Value of the lot
or the purchase price of the lot is used
If the lot was purchased more than 12 months ago, the appraised Value of the lot is used

(e) Contract for Deed/Land Contracts


Determine LTV according to the type of contract and ownership seasoning
established in the Contract for Deed/Land Contracts section of Chapter 3B,

(f) Lease With Option to Purchase


The Value is determined by one of the following:
If contract is less than 12 months old, the Value is determined by the lesser
of the purchase price or the appraised Value
If Borrower has occupied the subject property and paid on the contract for
more than 12 months, the Value is determined by the appraised Value
(g) Converted/Modified LoansEither Contemplated or Not Contemplated by
Original Note
The Client represents and warrants that the current market Value of the
Mortgaged Premises is at least equal to the appraised Value on the original
appraisal.
(2) Second Mortgage Transaction Value
(a) Second mortgage Loan originated behind a first mortgage rate/term refinance
Loan
The Value is determined by one of the following:
Appraisal
Stated Value
AVM1,2
Qualified AVM2,3
(b) Second mortgage Loan originated behind a first mortgage purchase or cashout refinance Loan
If the property was purchased within the last 12 months. The Value is
determined by lesser of the following:
Appraisal, Automated Valuation Model (AVM)1,2 or Qualified AVM
The purchase price (as stated on the executed purchase agreement or
HUD-1) plus the added Value of any documented improvements
If the property was purchased more than 12 months ago. The Value is
determined by one of the following:
HUD-1 (if purchased within the last 24 months)
Stated Value
Appraisal
AVM1,2
Qualified AVM2,3
1

If both an appraisal and an AVM Value are present in a Loan file, GMAC-RFC will use the appraisal to determine
Value.
2
GMAC-RFC does not accept AVMs when the Client has input Property Data (other than the property address) or
has altered or changed the AVM in any way from the original product supplied from the vendor.
3 If a Qualified AVM, an appraisal and/or AVM are present in the Loan file, GMAC-RFC will use the Qualified AVM
to determine Value.

C302
Secondary or Subordinate Financing
GMAC-RFC will permit subordinate or Secondary Financing, including home equity lines of
credit, under Loan Programs that permit their use, as long as the following minimum
criteria have been met:
(1) The combined LTV (CLTV) may not exceed the program maximum. The CLTV is
calculated by adding the principal balance of the first mortgage with the current
principal balance of subordinated closed-end second liens and the maximum
available credit line of subordinated open-end second liens and then dividing the
sum by the appraised Value of the subject property.
(2) The secondary or subordinate financing must have a minimum remaining term of no
less than five years, unless the financing fully amortizes prior to that time.
(3) The financing must not permit the Note holder to call the financing within the first
five years after the Loan closing.
(4) The secondary or subordinate financing must not have a negative amortization
feature.
(5) The Client must include the monthly payments on the secondary or subordinate
financing when it calculates the Borrowers housing and debt ratios.
(6) Payments may be graduated or variable, as long as:
The total amount of secondary or subordinate financing fully amortizes during its
term
The combined annual payment adjustments of the Loan and the secondary or
subordinate financing does not exceed the lesser of a 2% interest rate increase or
an 8.5% payment increase
When secondary or subordinate financing is a home equity line of credit, the Client must
meet the following additional criteria:
(1) The property being financed must be owner occupied or a second/vacation home.
(2) The calculation of the CLTV must include the total usable home equity line of credit.
(3) For qualification purposes, the monthly housing payment is calculated as follows:
For an existing subordinate lien, if the current balance is zero and no draws will be
used for the new transaction, a minimum payment need not be included in the
qualifying ratio. If a balance appears on the line of credit or an advance will be part
of the new transaction, calculate the housing payment by multiplying the total
usable line of credit by the interest rate in effect at the time the Loan application is
underwritten
For a simultaneous home equity line of credit (originated with a new first
mortgage) calculate the housing payment by multiplying the total usable line of
credit by 1.00%

C303
Sales Concessions or Home-seller Subsidy
Any costs that are normally the Borrowers responsibility are considered sales concessions if
the home-seller pays them.
Sales concessions may include either:
Payments in any form that are related to the financing (e.g., discount points,
Commitment fees, appraisal fees, origination fees, interest shortfall, etc.)
The portion of the costs of any other items related to the transaction that are
traditionally paid by the Borrower (e.g., transfer taxes, stamps, attorneys' fees,
surveys, title insurance, fees for the use of a real estate tax service, etc.)
For underwriting purposes, the Client must reduce the Mortgaged Premises sales price to
reflect the amount of any concessions or contributions that exceed the maximum allowed.
The Client must then calculate the maximum LTV ratio, using the lesser of the reduced sale
price or appraised Value. The cost of any sales concessions in the form of furniture, decorator
allowances, moving costs or other giveaways must always be deducted from the Mortgaged
Premises sale price. Note that the appraisal must reflect the effect any subsidies,
contributions or sales concessions have on the market Value of the Mortgaged Premises.

C304
Escrow Issues
The Client must conform to the following escrow requirements:
(A) Escrow/Impounds
(1) First Mortgage Programs (excluding the 1st Lien Line of Credit Program)
Interest on Escrow/Impound must be paid to the Borrower if required by
applicable law or regulation.
(a) Waiver
The Client may waive the Escrow/Impounds to conform with its policy and
procedures. Even if the Client waives this requirement, the standard Escrow/
Impound provision must remain in the Loan Documents.
(b) Establishment of Account
When Escrow/Impounds are established, all amounts required by the Client
must be paid from the Borrowers cash or other equity at closing. These
amounts may include prepaid real estate taxes and hazard and mortgage
insurance.
(c) Mortgage Insurance
In all cases, the Client must establish an Escrow/Impound account for the
payment of private mortgage insurance, if applicable, unless a single premium
was paid in full at closing or unless the Client obtained lender-paid mortgage
insurance.

(2) Second Mortgage Programs and the 1st Lien Line of Credit Program
An escrow of funds for the payment of property taxes or hazard insurance premiums
is not required, but for second mortgage programs the Client may require such
escrows on the first mortgage in conformance with its policies and procedures, or
those of an underlying first mortgage investor.
(B) Escrow for Postponed Improvements
The Client may establish an escrow account for a postponed improvement or repair for the
following reasons only:
Current weather conditions prohibit completion of an exterior improvement or repair or
Improvement or repair is minor in nature, and the Clients policy allows escrow in such
circumstances
An improvement or repair is not considered minor if:
It affects the structural integrity or health and safety of the occupants of the dwelling
located on the Mortgaged Premises
The Mortgaged Premises was appraised subject to a repair or
The appraised Value of the Mortgaged Premises was done on an after-improved basis
If the Client doesnt plan to establish an escrow account, the appraiser must delete the Value
of the improvement or repair from the appraised Value. The Client must then use the
adjusted Value to calculate the LTV ratio.
If the Client establishes an escrow account for a Loan for which servicing is sold to GMACRFC, the Client must monitor the account until the repairs or improvements are completed.
For more information see Chapter 8, Servicing Released.
(1) Amount and Time for Completion
The escrow amount must be at least one and a half times the estimated cost of the
improvement or repair as noted on the appraisal. The improvement or repair must
be completed, and funds released, within 90 days if the escrow is for a minor,
interior improvement or repair. If the escrow is for an exterior, weather-related
improvement or repair, the Client must complete and release within six months.
(2) Documentation
The Client must use an escrow agreement when establishing an account for
improvement or repair. The Client must monitor funds in the account.
(3) Clients Agreement
If the Client establishes an escrow for completion of an improvement or repair, it
agrees that the work will be completed within the time periods stated above and in a
workman-like manner, regardless of any actions of the home-seller, the Borrower or
any other party to the transaction.
(4) Release of Escrow Funds
The escrow funds may be released when the work has been inspected and certified
by the original appraiser. The Client may certify the completion if GMAC-RFC required
the work and if it determined that the Clients certification is sufficient. The Client
must ensure that lien waivers for all work have been provided.

Temporary Buydowns
GMAC-RFC may purchase Loans containing temporary interest rate buydowns when allowed
by the Loan Program and product type.
(A) Buydown Agreement Terms
Each buydown agreement must include terms stating that:
(1) Funds delivered under the agreement and deposited on the Borrowers behalf with a
depository, and any earnings from these funds, must be held in an account in the
Clients name, as an agent on behalf of the Borrower. The account must conform to
the Custodial Accounts for Principal and Interest Payments and Escrow/Impound
Accounts Section of the Servicer Guide.
(2) Funds delivered under the buydown agreement must equal or exceed the total
payments to be made from such funds or these funds, if present Valued, must equal
or exceed the present Value of the total payments discounted at a rate of 4.5% per
annum for the first year, 4% per annum for the second year and 3% per annum for
the third year. In each case, the totals are compounded monthly.
(3) The Borrower must own the buydown funds and all its earnings, subject only to the
buydown agreement and the security interest described below.
(4) The Borrower may not withdraw any of the buydown funds from the account prior to
the buydown period's termination UNLESS the Loan is fully prepaid. In this case, any
remaining funds will be returned to the Borrower unless the funds were deposited by
the Client or its assigns. In that case, any remaining funds will be returned to the
Client or its assigns.
(5) The Borrower is not relieved of liability under the Note if the buydown funds are
delivered to the Client. The buydown agreement does not amend the Note.
(6) The Note holder has an express security interest in the buydown funds and is
authorized to perfect its security interest at any time.
(7) If the Borrower defaults, the Note holder has all the rights of a secured party under
the law of the State, where the Mortgaged Premises are located. Once the Loan is
foreclosed, the Note holder may take possession of and apply the buydown funds to
satisfy all or a portion of the Loans unpaid principal balance and accrued interest.
This may be done without the Borrowers consent.
For each Loan with a Temporary Buydown, the Client must submit a Temporary Buydown
Schedule (recommended Form GMAC-RFC Form 1301). In place of GMAC-RFC Form 1301,
Clients may submit their own Temporary Buydown Schedule. The buydown agreement may
be submitted only if accompanied by the Temporary Buydown Schedule. This submission
does not diminish the Clients responsibility to comply with the terms of this Temporary
Buydowns Section.

Loans originated with an employer subsidy or mortgage differential do not need to meet the
requirement of this Temporary Buydowns Section as long as the following conditions are
met:
The Borrower was qualified at the full monthly payment level
The agreement between the employer and the Borrower does not relieve the Borrower
from the obligation to make full monthly payments of principal and interest due under
the Note
The agreement, or its terms, will not delay or preclude foreclosure proceedings against
the Borrower if necessary
If the employer plans to make advanced fund contributions to the Client for future
application that coincide with the Borrowers monthly payments of principal and interest, the
agreement must specify how the funds are to be applied and administered. This agreement
must be signed by the employer, the Borrower and the Client.

Texas Equity Loans
Loans secured by a first mortgage on homestead property in Texas that comply with Article
XVI, Section 50(a)(6) and 50 (g) of the Texas Constitution (Texas Equity Loans) are eligible
for purchase by GMAC-RFC. Second mortgage and Payment Option Texas Equity Loans are
not eligible for purchase. The Texas Equity Loan first mortgage may be the only outstanding
Texas Equity Loan that is secured by the homestead property and at least 12 months must
have elapsed since any previous Texas Equity Loan secured by the homestead property was
closed.
The proceeds from a Texas Equity Loan first mortgage must not be used to acquire or
improve the homestead if a mortgage for that purpose could have been made under
authority of Article XVI, Sections 50(a)(1) through (5) of the Texas Constitution.
The following two types of first mortgage Loans secured by the Borrowers homestead are
Texas Equity Loans and must meet the requirements of Article XVI, Section 50 (a)(6) and
50(g) of the Texas Constitution.
A first mortgage rate/term refinance originated to pay-off an existing Texas Equity
Loan regardless of whether the Borrower receives any cash out of the refinance
proceeds. This is the once a Texas Equity Loan always a Texas Equity Loan rule.
Once a Borrower obtains a first or second lien Texas Equity Loan, any subsequent
refinancing of the homestead property is considered a Texas Equity Loan subject to all
the requirements of Section 50(a)(6) of the Texas Constitution if any of the proceeds
are used to pay off the existing Texas Equity Loan even if the Borrower does not
receive any cash from the transaction.
A first mortgage cash-out refinance or rate/term refinance if the Borrower receives any
amount of cash at closing. Reasonable closing costs may be included in the Loan
amount, but any cash back to the Borrower makes the transaction a Texas Equity
Loan.
Article XVI, Section 50(e) of the Texas Constitution provides that if a refinance Loan secured
by homestead property includes the advance of more money than is necessary to pay off the
existing debt, the lien is not valid unless (i) the Loan is treated as a Texas Equity Loan (ii) the
additional funds are for reasonable costs necessary to refinance the debt being paid off, or
(iii) the additional funds are for another purpose authorized by the Constitution.
All other requirements contained in this Client Guide, including the requirements in the Loan
Programs Chapters of the Client Guide apply to Texas Equity Loans unless limited by the
Texas Constitution or the requirements in this Texas Equity Loans Section.

to another are described in the individual Loan Program Chapters. In most cases, differences
will not be referenced in this Chapter.

D300

Properties that have been listed for sale within the last 6 months are not eligible for
purchase.

D301
Eligible Property Types
(A) Single-family Residence
An attached or detached single-family dwelling.
All attached units that are not covered by a blanket hazard insurance policy or subject to a
homeowners association (HOA) must have a recorded shared Party Wall agreement that
runs with the property. The agreement must evidence that the respective property owners
have agreed to maintain adequate insurance for the attached units, as well as address any
issues that may arise from maintaining and sharing common areas and elements.

Property Types &
Considerations

(D) Planned Unit Development (PUD)


A Planned Unit Development is a development that has all the following characteristics:
The individual unit owners own a parcel of land improved with a dwelling. This
ownership is NOT in common with other unit owners
The development is administered by a homeowners association (HOA) that owns and
is obligated to maintain property and improvements within the development for the
common use and benefit of the unit owners
The unit owners have an automatic, non-severable interest in the homeowners
association (HOA) and pay mandatory assessment
GMAC-RFC does not base classification of a PUD on its zoning. While there are many styles
of homes that can be within a PUD (e.g., townhouse, single family, detached, quads, etc.),
this is not the basis of determination. The development must meet the above definitions and
the Client must make all warranties required by GMAC-RFC for this type of ownership.
GMAC-RFC reserves the right to limit the number and/or aggregate dollar amount of Loans
purchased in any one subdivision, condominium, or PUD project or to declare Loans in any
project ineligible for purchase.
PUD projects with pending litigation are typically not eligible, however non-structural
litigation may be considered on a case-by-case basis. Seller must represent and warrant that
litigation has no adverse effect on the marketability or livability of the project or subject
phase and that the homeowners association (HOA) has sufficient reserves or insurance to
cover the minor litigation in question. An acceptable letter from the homeowners association
(HOA) legal council is the recommended form of documentation.
(E) Modular Homes
Modular Homes are Factory-built Homes constructed to the State, local or regional
building codes where the home will be located. Modular Homes are multi-sectioned units that
are transported to the site and installed. GMAC-RFC treats Modular Homes the same as
single-family residences.
(F) Condominium Unit Located in a Building
A condominium unit is a single-family dwelling located in a condominium project. A
condominium project is real estate that includes the separate ownership in fee, or an
acceptable Leasehold estate (see the Leaseholds Section in Chapter 2A for
requirements), of a specified residential unit with an undivided interest in the real estate
designated for common ownership solely by unit owners.
A condominium project is created according to local and State statutes. The structure is
generally two or more units with the interior airspace individually owned. The balance of the
property (land and building) are owned in common by the individual unit owners.
Condominiums create additional risk because the homeowners association (HOA) has legal
rights that could adversely impact the mortgagees rights. Depending on the financial
management of the homeowners association (HOA), the Value of the project (unit) can be
adversely affected.
GMAC-RFC will purchase Loans in condominium projects, relying primarily on the Clients
warranties. The Client must complete the Condominium Warranty Certification, (GMAC-RFC
Form 1303), whenever submitting a Loan secured by a property which is a condominium.

Condominium projects that contain less than ten units may be eligible for purchase as long
as they meet the criteria for small condominium projects. See Condominium Warranties
for GMAC-RFC Small Condominium Projects (projects with less than ten units)
Section in this chapter for more information.
GMAC-RFC reserves the right to limit the number and/or aggregate dollar amount of Loans
purchased in any one subdivision, condominium or PUD project or to declare Loans in any
project ineligible for purchase.
At times a condominium development has commercial space (e.g., first floor restaurant, deli,
hair salon, grocery store, etc.). If this is the case, there must be no more than 20%
commercial space in the building.
Condominium projects with pending litigation are typically not eligible, however nonstructural litigation may be considered on a case-by-case basis. Seller must represent and
warrant that litigation has no adverse effect on the marketability or livability of the project or
subject phase and that the homeowners association (HOA) has sufficient reserves or
insurance to cover the minor litigation in question. An acceptable letter from the
homeowners associations legal council is the recommended form of documentation.
(G) Non-Warrantable Condominiums
Non-warrantable condominiums are condominium projects that have not complied with
condominium warranties in this Client Guide for minimum pre-sale requirements or
maximum investor concentrations.
When submitting a Loan secured by a non-warrantable condominium, the Client must
complete the Condominium Warranty Certification (GMAC-RFC Form 1303).
Clients must ensure the project complies with additional requirements of GMAC-RFC,
including the form and amount of insurance required as stated in the Condominium
Requirements Section of this Client Guide.
In addition, the project must not be an ineligible property type as defined in the Loan
Program Chapter and must satisfy the following guidelines:
Minimum pre-sale requirement for each project or subject legal phase is 33%
50% of all units, common areas and facilities within the project or subject legal phase
must be completed
Investors must own no more than 70% of the units sold within the project, with no one
entity owning more than 10% of the project (other than the developer)
LTV exceptions are not allowed
GMAC-RFCs condominium project exposure limit is 20% of the total number of units in
the project

(1) Condominium Warranties for GMAC-RFC Class I Condominium Projects


A Class I Condominium Project is a project where the developer control has not
terminated, or the project is subject to additional phasing or add-ons not yet
completed.
If the Mortgaged Premises is a GMAC-RFC Class I condominium, the Client
warrants to GMAC-RFC that:
Any right of first refusal in the condominium constituent documents will not
impair the right of the first mortgagee to foreclose or take title to a unit
pursuant to the remedies of the mortgage, to accept a deed or assignment in
lieu of foreclosure in the Event of Default by a mortgagor or to sell or lease a
unit acquired by the mortgagee.
Any first mortgagee who obtains title to a condominium unit pursuant to the
remedies in the mortgage or through foreclosure will not be liable for more
than six months of the unit's unpaid regularly budgeted dues or charges
accrued before the acquisition of the title to the unit by the mortgagee. If the
homeowners associations lien priority includes costs of collecting unpaid dues,
the Client will be liable for any fees or costs related to this collection.
Except as provided by statute in case of condemnation or substantial loss to
the units and/or common elements of the project, unless at least two-thirds of
the first mortgagees (based on one vote for each first mortgage owner) or
owners (other than the sponsor or developer) of the individual condominium
units have given their prior written approval, the homeowners association
(HOA) may not:
By act or omission seek to abandon or terminate the condominium project
Change the pro rata interest or obligations of any unit in order to levy
assessments or charges, allocated distribution of hazard insurance proceeds
or condemnation awards or to determine the pro rata share of ownership of
each condominium unit in the common elements
Partition or subdivide any condominium unit
Seek to abandon, partition, subdivide, encumber, sell or transfer the
common elements by act or omission
Use hazard insurance proceeds for losses to any condominium property
(whether units or common elements) for other than the repair, replacement
or reconstruction of that property
Any proposal or plan subjecting the condominium project to phasing or add-ons
must be clearly defined in the declaration. Any changes in the owners'
percentage of interest must be described in the declaration and no change in
the percentage interest in the common elements may be effective more than
seven years after the declaration becomes effective.
All taxes and assessments and charges that may become liens prior to the first
mortgage under State and local law relate only to the individual unit and not
the project as a whole.

No provision of the condominium constituent documents gives a unit owner or


any other party priority over any rights of the first mortgagee of the unit
pursuant to its condemnation awards for losses to or fixtures within
condominium units and/or common elements.
If the project is on a Leasehold estate, the condominium unit lease is a lease
or sublease of the fee, and provisions of the lease comply with the
requirements outlined in this Client Guide.
All amenities that are part of the condominium project are covered by the
mortgage at least to the same extent as the common elements. All common
elements and amenities are fully installed, completed and in operation for use
by unit owners.

purchasers who are closed or legally obligated to close. A phase must contain
enough units to support any common elements or recreational facilities
included in the sale price or appraised Value of the individual unit.
At least 70% of the units are sold to individuals for primary residences or
second/vacation homes.
Condominium dues or charges must include an adequate reserve fund for
maintenance, repairs and replacement of common elements. These must be
regular installments rather than special assessments.
A first mortgagee, upon request, is entitled to written notification from the
homeowners association (HOA) of any default in the performance of an
individual unit Borrower of any obligation required by the Legal Documents
that is not cured within 60 days. The Client further ensures that it has
requested, and has not received, a notice of any outstanding defaults as of the
Delivery Date.
Any agreement for professional management of the condominium project or
any other contract providing for services of the developer, sponsor or builder,
may not exceed three years and may be terminated by either party without
cause and without payment of a termination fee on 90 days' or less written
notice.

(D) Reverification
In order to facilitate the reverification process for quality control purposes and to encourage
all Borrowers to provide complete and accurate information during the application process,
Clients must obtain a blanket authorization form for all Borrower. All Clients must be able to
provide accurate documentation and information on all Loans.
The Client may choose to develop its own blanket authorization form, which must comply
with applicable law and include the following information:
(1) Why the form is being requested: For example, notify the Borrower that the Loan
may be selected as part of an audit; therefore, credit information stated on the
application will only be requested specifically with regard to the Borrowers mortgage
Loan.
(2) No additional cost will be incurred by the Borrower: If verifications are requested, let
the Borrower know that no additional costs will be incurred.
(3) Full Borrower cooperation/release of information: If information is requested by an
audit, the Borrower agrees to fully cooperate with the Client, or subsequent Note
holder, and authorizes the release of information. Information may be requested
from a depository, employer or any other applicable party who provided Loan
information. The Borrower agrees to fully cooperate throughout the quality control
process.
In cases where income used for qualification purposes is derived from sources typically
verified through tax returns, the Client must obtain a Tax Information Authorization Form
(IRS Forms 4506 or 4506-T) directly from the Internal Revenue Service. Tax returns may be
relied on for interest income, rental income, etc. This form will verify the accuracy of the
income information stated on the Loan application or will validate the accuracy and
completeness of the information outlined in the tax returns on Full, Lite, One Paystub and
Fast Income Documentation Loans.
The blanket authorization form must be signed at Loan application rather than at Loan
closing. The Client must keep these forms in the Loan file. If the Loan is selected for an audit,
these forms may be used to obtain the reverification information required.
GMAC-RFC may ask the Client to provide copies of these forms to assist in its quality control
and audit process.

Insurance & Survey Requirements
This Chapter describes the insurance and survey requirements that apply to all GMAC-RFC
Loan Programs. Generally, eligibility policies that vary from one standard Loan Program to
another are described in the individual Loan Program Chapters. In most cases, differences
will not be referenced in this Chapter.

F300
Insurance Requirements
The following Sections define the insurance requirements that must be satisfied for Loans
offered for sale to GMAC-RFC.

F301
Hazard Insurance
At a minimum, the Mortgaged Premises must be protected against loss or damage from
fire and other perils covered within the scope of the standard extended coverage
endorsement. GMAC-RFC will not accept hazard insurance policies that limit or exclude from
coverage (in whole or in part) windstorm, hurricane, hail damage, or any other peril that is
normally included under an extended coverage endorsement. The hazard insurance coverage
must equal the lesser of:
100% of the insurable Value of the improvements as established by the property
insurer OR
The unpaid principal balance of the first mortgage and the second mortgage Loan
amount, as long as it equals the minimum amount80% of the insurable Value of the
improvementsrequired to compensate for damage or loss on a replacement cost
basis
For negatively amortizing Loans, the hazard insurance coverage must be either 100% of the
insurable Value of the improvements as established by the property insurer or the highest
outstanding balance permitted under the Loan Program. The Client must ensure that the
Mortgaged Premises will be adequately covered even when vacant, and where necessary,
must obtain a vacancy permit endorsement.
(1) Deductible
Unless State law requires a higher deductible, the deductible may not exceed the
higher of:
$2,000 or 2% of the policys insurance limits for windstorm or hail losses
$1,000 or 1% of the policys insurance limits for all other covered losses
(2) Carrier
The policy must be underwritten by an insurer currently rated B/III, A/II or better in
Bests Insurance Reports or rated A or better by DEMOTECH, Inc. Lloyds of London
policies are also acceptable. The insurer must also be licensed or authorized by law
to conduct business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Premises is located.

Requirements

(3) Public Liability Insurance


The PUD Corporation, homeowners association (HOA) or trust must have a
comprehensive policy of public liability insurance, covering all the PUDs common
property. The insurance policy must contain a severability of interest clause or
endorsement precluding the insurer from denying the claim of a PUD unit owner
because of negligent acts of the PUD corporation, homeowners association, trust or
other unit owners. Coverage must also include all other coverages in the kinds and
amounts commonly required by private institutional mortgage investors for projects
similar in construction, location and use. Liability coverage must be for at least $1
million per occurrence for personal injury and/or property damage. Public liability
insurance is not required for projects that have greenbelt space only as long as the
homeowners association (HOA) has been turned over to the unit owners.
(4) Mortgagee Clause; Endorsement
Each hazard insurance policy must contain or have attached the standard (New
York) mortgagee clause, or if unavailable, the standard mortgagee clause commonly
accepted by private institutional mortgage investors in the area where the
Mortgaged Premises is located. The mortgagee clause must provide that the
insurance carrier notify the Designated Servicer named at least ten days before
the effective date of any termination, reduction or cancellation of the policy.
For Second Mortgage Programs, the Client must ensure the hazard insurance
policy contains a standard mortgagee clause identifying the second mortgage
interest and that it does not replace the mortgagee clause pertaining to the first
mortgage Loan.
The mortgagee clause of each insurance policy must be properly endorsed,
necessary notices of transfer must be given, and any other necessary action must be
taken as reasonably requested by GMAC-RFC in order to protect the interest of
GMAC-RFC as first or second mortgagee under the terms of the policy and applicable
law.
When permissible, the Client must have the insurance carrier name the Servicer or
its assigns as the first mortgagee under the mortgagee clause, instead of GMACRFC. In deed of trust jurisdictions, when permissible, the name of the Servicer
beneficiary or the [name of trustee] for benefit of [name of Servicer] must be used
instead of the name of the trustee only.
Regardless of how the mortgagee clause is endorsed, the Client must cause all
insurance drafts, notices, policies, invoices and all other similar documents to be
delivered directly to the Servicer. The Client shall not have complied with this
requirement if the Clients actions cause the insurance documents to be delivered to
GMAC-RFC. GMAC-RFC will not be responsible for insurance documents received due
to the Clients failure to indicate to the insurance company the Servicers correct
name and address. If GMAC-RFC is named as the first mortgagee, the Servicers
address must be used in the endorsements instead of GMAC-RFC.
For example:
XYZ Mortgage Company
as Servicer for GMAC-RFC
123 Center Street
Anytown, Anystate, zipcode

F302
Mortgage Insurance
If primary mortgage insurance is required by the Loan Program, as stated in Chapter 6,
Loan Programs, the Client must obtain a mortgage insurance Commitment certificate from a
Mortgage Insurer that is acceptable to GMAC-RFC. The primary mortgage insurance
coverage must run to the Client and its successors and assigns and must protect the interest
of GMAC-RFC. Mortgage insurance coverage must not be subject to any exclusions beyond
those stated in the Mortgage Insurers master policy.
An acceptable primary Mortgage Insurer must have, at a minimum, a claims paying ability
acceptable to Standard and Poors Corporation for AA-Rated mortgage pass-through
certificates and to Moodys Investors Service for an A-Rated mortgage pass-through
certificate. The primary Mortgage Insurers currently meeting these requirements are listed
on the Acceptable Primary Mortgage Insurers Exhibit (GMAC-RFC Exhibit 1304).
It is the Clients responsibility to monitor the ratings of these Mortgage Insurers. In the event
the ratings are downgraded prior to the Funding Date or Substitution Date, the Client
must obtain mortgage insurance from another Mortgage Insurer listed on the Acceptable
Primary Mortgage Insurers (GMAC-RFC Exhibit 1304) who meets the claims paying ability
requirement of GMAC-RFC.
An Escrow/Impound account must be established at closing for monthly payment of future
premiums, unless a single premium was paid in full at closing.
(1) Monthly Mortgage Insurance Premiums
GMAC-RFC accepts mortgage insurance premiums scheduled to be paid on a
monthly basis.
(2) Single Premium Mortgage Insurance
GMAC-RFC accepts mortgage insurance premiums paid as a single premium.
When financing the cost of the premium in the Loan amount, the entire Loan amount
(inclusive of premium) is used to calculate the LTV ratio. The LTV cannot exceed the
maximum LTV allowed for the Program.

within this Section for additional information
Lender-paid mortgage insurance may be used for both fixed-rate mortgages
and ARMs. However, convertible ARMs are not eligible for purchase
The Client must pay each renewal premium when it becomes due, regardless of the
receipt of payments from the Borrower. Clients may not deposit these funds in an
GMAC-RFC custodial account unless specifically authorized by GMAC-RFC.
The Client must keep the mortgage insurance coverage in effect for the entire life of
the Loan. Provisions defined in this Mortgage Insurance Section and in Chapter 8,
Servicing Released, regarding cancellation of coverage do not apply. The Client may
retain any premium refund it receives in connection with a policy cancellation
resulting from a full pay off of the mortgage Loan.
The Client agrees that if the servicing of a lender-insured mortgage is transferred,
the Client will provide the new Servicer with a list of all lender-insured mortgages
that are included in the portfolio being transferred (identifying the applicable
premium renewal rate).
When lender-insured Loans are delivered to GMAC-RFC, Clients must identify the
Loan as being lender-insured and indicate to GMAC-RFC whether the premium is a
monthly or annual renewal or a single-premium plan.
(4) Mortgage Insurance Coverage Requirements
When required, mortgage insurance must be obtained from the companies listed on
the Acceptable Primary Mortgage Insurers Form, (GMAC-RFC Form 1304).

Requirements

(5) Mortgage Insurance Requirements for Loans Originated in New York


The Value used in determining the Loan-to-Value ratio is generally the lower of the
sale price or the current appraised Value of the property securing the Loan. Under
New York law, Mortgage Insurers may not issue mortgage insurance if the
mortgage amount is less than 80% of the fair market Value of the real estate. Fair
market Value is not defined (see below). In addition, on a first mortgage Loan, a
Borrower may not be required to pay mortgage insurance premiums once the unpaid
Loan balance is 75% or less of the appraised Value of the real property at the time
the Loan was made.
On an exception basis, GMAC-RFC will purchase New York Loans with mortgage
insurance issued in accordance with New York law. A lender may base its
determination of when to require mortgage insurance for a mortgage secured by a
property located in New York solely on the appraised Value of the propertynot
the lower of the sale price or current appraised Value. GMAC-RFC will continue to use
our standard definition of Value to calculate the Loan-to-Value ratio used in
determining whether the mortgage satisfies our eligibility criteria based on the Loanto-Value ratio of the mortgage.
(6) Cancellation; Original Borrower
If required by law, or if all of the following conditions are met and the Borrower so
requests, the Mortgage Insurance must be canceled.
(a) Two years has elapsed since the origination of the Mortgage
(b) The unpaid principal balance of the Loan has been reduced to the LTV (CLTV in
the case of a Junior Lien) where Mortgage Insurance is not required under
Chapter 6, Loan Programs, at the time the Loan was purchased by GMAC-RFC,
where Value is:
Based upon the original appraised Value of the property, and the Servicer
represents that the current Value of the Mortgaged Premises is at least
equal to the original appraised Value or
Based upon a current appraised Value (ordered by the Servicer from their
approved appraiser list and paid for by the Borrower). The applicable
appraisal form must be used and it must have been performed within 60
days of the request for cancellation of the mortgage insurance. Under
certain circumstances (based upon the structure of the pool a Loan may be
in) it may not be possible to cancel mortgage insurance on an individual
Loan where a new appraisal is used as the basis of determining the current
LTV. All requests where a new appraisal will be ordered to establish the
current LTV must have prior written approval from GMAC-RFC before
mortgage insurance may be canceled
(c) The Borrowers monthly installment of principal, interest and Escrow/Impound
was never more than 30 days past due for the 12 months immediately preceding
the date insurance cancellation is requested.
(d) There was no other default under the terms of the Loan at any time during the
same 12 month period.

(7) Cancellation; Transfer of Ownership


If the transferee so requests and all of the conditions below are met, mortgage
insurance may be canceled following an authorized transfer of ownership of the
Mortgaged Premises.
(a) The unpaid principal balance of the Loan has been reduced to the Loan-toValue ratio required under Chapter 6, Loan Programs, at the time the Loan
was purchased by GMAC-RFC, where Value is:
The lesser of the purchase price at transfer or the appraised Value at
transfer as estimated by a Client-Approved appraiser OR
If the Mortgaged Premises were not reappraised at the time of transfer or
the Value has declined, the lesser of the purchase price at transfer or the
Value of the Mortgaged Premises as estimated by a Client-Approved
appraiser, using the applicable appraisal form, within 60 days of the
request for cancellation of insurance
(b) The transferees monthly installment of principal, interest and Escrow/Impound
was never more than 30 days past due for the 12 months preceding the date
insurance cancellation is requested.
This satisfactory payment record requirement is not applicable if insurance
cancellation is requested at the time of transfer. A shorter period of satisfactory
payments is acceptable if it is shorter than the period between the transfer date
and the date insurance cancellation is requested.
(c) There was no other default under the terms of the Loan at any time during the
applicable period stated in clause (b) above, provided that this requirement is
not applicable if insurance cancellation is requested at the time of transfer.
(8) Cancellation; Appraisal Fee
Any applicable appraisal fee incurred to determine the appropriateness of mortgage
insurance coverage cancellation may be charged to the Borrower.
(9) Cancellation; Adjustment and Notice
Upon cancellation of mortgage insurance:
The collection of related premiums must be discontinued
Necessary adjustments to the Borrowers Escrow/Impound account and the
Escrow/Impounds portion of the monthly installment amount must be made
The Borrower must be advised, in writing, of all such adjustments
(10) Cancellation; Disclosure of Terms and Conditions
The Client must disclose to the Borrower, in writing, the terms and conditions that
must be met prior to the primary mortgage insurance being eligible for cancellation.

Earthquake Insurance
GMAC-RFC does not require earthquake insurance as a condition for purchase; however, if
coverage is in place, the following applies:
Mortgage Clause; Endorsement
The Client must ensure that the earthquake insurance policy contains a standard mortgagee
clause identifying the first or second mortgage interest, and for second mortgage Loans, it
does not replace the mortgagee clause pertaining to the first mortgage Loan.

F304
Flood Certification
Each Loan delivered for purchase must include the Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) Standard Flood Hazard Determination Form for use in determining whether a building
is located within an identified Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA). The Client must use third
party firms or appraisers to make the flood hazard determination, and the Client is ultimately
responsible for the accuracy of the flood zone determination. The Client must ensure that the
third party guarantees the accuracy of its determination. The certification must indicate
whether the dwelling on the subject property lies within an SFHA as identified by the FEMA
through the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). The flood zone, flood map number and
map date must also be stated. The Client must select a flood zone determination company
from the list of flood zone determination vendors provided by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.

F305
Flood Insurance

of HUD or the Director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) as a Special
Flood Hazard Area (SFHA), the Client must ensure that flood insurance is maintained and
that it provides coverage at least equivalent to the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP)
in the amount specified in this Section.
Flood insurance is required if any part of the principal structure is located within an SFHA.
Flood insurance on detached buildings located within an SFHA is required if they serve as
part of the security for the mortgage. GMAC-RFC will not purchase mortgages secured by
property located in non-participating communities if the property is located in an SFHA.
The Client may waive the flood insurance requirement if the land or a portion of it is in a
Special Flood Hazard Area but the improvements are not, or if the Borrower has provided the
Client with a Letter of Map Amendment from FEMA excluding its improvements or the entire
property from the Special Flood Hazard Area.

Requirements

If the property is already covered by a flood insurance policy because the holder of the first
mortgage required the coverage, the Client must review the coverage to ensure that it
provides the minimum coverage required under the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP)
in the amount specified in this Section. Because the maximum level of coverage available
under the NFIP has been increased to $250,000 and the statutory cap has been eliminated,
some mortgages may be underinsured. The Client must review the coverage on the first
mortgage to determine whether additional coverage is required. The Client must require the
Borrower to obtain appropriate endorsements. The Client must provide a copy of the
endorsements to the Servicers of both the first mortgage and the second mortgage Loan. If
the property is not covered by a flood insurance policy and it is an SFHA, the Client must
require the Borrower to obtain the minimum coverage required in this Section.
Building coverage for single-family properties must be maintained in an amount at least
equal to the least of the following:
The maximum available under NFIPs regular program
The maximum available under NFIPs emergency program if the regular program is not
yet in effect in the area where the Mortgaged Premises is located or
The minimum amount required under the terms of coverage to compensate for any
damage or loss on a replacement cost basis, or the unpaid balance of the Security
Instrument if replacement cost compensation is not available for the type of building
insured
Deductibles may not exceed the lower of $1,000 or 1% of the amount of coverage. Any flood
insurance policy shall contain the standard mortgagee clause as described in the Section of
this Client Guide.
Flood insurance requirements for single-family properties apply to similar residential
properties within a PUD.

F306
Condominium Insurance
Prior to the sale of a Loan to GMAC-RFC secured by a unit in a condominium, written
evidence must be obtained to ensure that the scope and amount of insurance coverage
meets or exceeds all local laws, ordinances and regulations covering condominiums, and
that, in addition, the following minimum requirements for insurance coverage are satisfied:
(1) Scope of Coverage
A multi-peril type of policy covering the entire condominium project is required. This
policy must provide, at a minimum, fire and extended coverage and all other
coverage in the kinds and amounts commonly required by private institutional
mortgage investors for projects similar in construction, location and use. Coverage
must be on a replacement cost basis for at least 100% of the insurable Value based
on replacement cost.
(2) Boiler Explosion Insurance
If a steam boiler is operating in the Mortgaged Premises, boiler explosion
insurance must be in force. This insurance must be evidenced by the standard form
of boiler and machinery insurance policy, and must provide, at a minimum,
$100,000 per accident per location.

If the condominium project is in an area identified by the secretary of HUD as
having special flood hazards, a blanket policy of flood insurance must be
maintained by the Client on the condominium project in the amount of the aggregate
of the outstanding principal balances of the mortgages on the condominium units,
including the second mortgage Loan amount, if applicable, or the maximum limit of
coverage available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended,
whichever is less.
For second mortgages, the master or blanket policy of flood insurance must be in
the amount of the aggregate of the outstanding principal balances of all the
mortgages on the condominium units, including the second mortgage Loan amount,
or the maximum coverage available under the NFIP, whichever is less. The policy
must cover common element buildings and any other common property.
For second mortgages, the Client must ensure the flood insurance policy contains a
standard mortgage clause identifying the second mortgage interest and that it does
not replace the mortgage clause pertaining to the first mortgage.
(4) Name of Insured
The name of the insured stated under each required policy must be similar in form

A master title insurance policy, evidenced by a certificate issued under a master policy in lieu
of a separate policy for the Loan, is also acceptable provided the Client represents and
warrants the following:
(1) Client has examined the title insurers master policy documents and, based on this
review and certifications from the title insurer, the Client has confirmed that the
master policy provides at least the amount and scope of coverage given by the ALTA
standard policy and that the master policy otherwise meets the requirements of this
Title Insurance Section
(2) Client has obtained from the title insurer a fully executed master title insurance
policy issued in the Clients name
(3) Master policy and certificates of title have been approved by the applicable State or
(comparable) regulatory authorities and that the use of the master policy and

Prepayment
Penalties

3G
Prepayment Penalties
This Chapter describes Prepayment requirements that apply to all GMAC-RFC Loan Programs.
Generally, eligibility policies that vary from one standard Loan Program to another are
described in the individual Loan Program Chapters. In most cases, differences will not be
referenced in this Chapter.

G300
Prepayment Definition
A Prepayment is considered to have occurred when an amount greater than the regularly
scheduled principal payment is made thereby reducing the principal balance of a Loan before
the final due date.
(1) Full prepayment
When the entire amount of the Loan is paid prior to the due date, it is considered to
be a full prepayment. This can occur as a result of the sale of the property, a
refinance of the existing mortgage Loan, or a full payoff.
(2) Partial prepayment
A partial prepayment can occur when a principal curtailment is made along with a
regular monthly payment or as a lump sum payment, but does not fully payoff the
Loan.
(A) Prepayment Penalty Provisions
When the Loan has a prepayment penalty provision, and a full or partial prepayment is made
(over the prescribed allowable amount) during the penalty phase, a penalty will be due. The
amount of the penalty is dependent upon the amount of the principal reduction and terms of
the penalty provision. Prepayment penalty provisions typically describe:
(1) Prepayment Term
A qualifying prepayment penalty is expected to be in effect for at least 12 months
and up to 36 months from the date of the Note. Individual Loan Program Price
Sheets specify the prepayment terms which are eligible for the posted pricing.
(2) Penalty Calculation, Partial Prepayment Determination with Time frames
A qualifying prepayment penalty must provide for either:
(a) Six months advance interest on the amount by which the total of all
prepayments within any 12 month period exceeds 20% of the original principal
amount during the term of the prepayment penalty, OR

Prepayment
Penalties

(b) A percentage amount of either the prepaid amount or the original principal
balance. The percentage may be a straight percentage over the term of the
penalty period or may be graduated and dependent upon the length of time
between the date of the Note and when the prepayment is made. The
percentage amount is determined as either:
5% if prepayment occurs in the first 12 months after the Note date; 4% if
prepayment occurs in the 13th through 24th month; and 3% if the
prepayment occurs in the 25th through 36th month from the date of the
Note, OR
3% over the entire prepayment penalty term
(B) Hard vs. Soft Prepayment
Enforceability based on whether or not the Loan is prepaid due to the sale of the home or due
to a refinance is sometimes to referred to as the difference between a hard or a soft
prepayment.
(1) Hard Prepayment
The prepayment penalty is enforceable and a penalty is charged regardless of the
reason for prepayment. The Note or other attachments/addenda do not provide for
waiving the prepayment penalty.
(2) Soft Prepayment
The prepayment penalty includes provisions for waiving the penalty if the home is
sold to a related or unrelated party. Acceptable documentation of the sale
transaction must be provided. Only a refinance of the existing Loan or full or partial
curtailment will result in a penalty assessment.

G301
Program Prepayment Pricing Requirements
To be eligible for the applicable posted pricing, Loans with prepayment penalty provisions
must meet the specific standards of the program under which the Loan is submitted as well
as the federal and State laws and regulations under which the Loan was originated. These
program standards include:
(A) Payment Option Program
A hard prepayment is required for Loans under the Payment Option Program as indicated on
the Price Sheet. One and three year prepayment terms are offered.
Payment Option ARM Loans originated in California with a provision that allows the Borrower
to prepay within 90 days of rate change notification are not eligible for the posted
prepayment penalty pricing adjustment.
(B) Jumbo A and Expanded Criteria Fixed Rate and ARM
Pricing is posted for a hard prepayment with a three year term.
One Month, Six Month, One Year, and Two Year ARM Loans originated in California with a
provision that allows the Borrower to prepay within 90 days of a rate change notification are
not be eligible for the posted prepayment penalty pricing adjustment.
(C) Home Equity Goal Loan and 125 CLTV
Pricing is posted for a hard prepayment with a three year term.

4% if the prepayment occurs in the 13th through 24th month after the Note date; and
3% if the prepayment occurs in the 25th through 36th month after the Note date.

G302
Compliance with Applicable Laws
The Client must determine individual State requirements regarding prepayment penalties.
See the Prepayment Penalty Pricing Matrix published on the Portal for information regarding
GMAC Residential Fundings policies regarding the availability of prepayment penalty pricing
in each State. The Client must also comply with the prepayment penalty caps in the
Responsible Lending Representations, Warranties and Covenants Section of Chapter
2A, Representations, Warranties and Covenants.
Where federal or State laws preclude the program requirements, Clients are encouraged to
discuss alternative pricing for prepayment penalties.

Underwriting
The purpose of credit and property underwriting is to ensure that each Loan meets GMACRFCs quality standards. A Loan meets GMAC-RFCs underwriting quality standards if the
credit, character, capacity and collateral are consistent with the Loan Program and credit
grade under which the Loan is sold to GMAC-RFC. The likelihood of timely repayment is
expected to be commensurate with the credit quality of the program and the represented
Value of the Mortgaged Premises is expected to accurately reflect its market Value.
This Underwriting Chapter sets out underwriting standards that apply to all GMAC-RFC Loan
Programs. Generally, underwriting standards that vary from one standard Loan Program to
another are described in the individual Loan Program Chapters. In most cases, differences
will not be referenced in this Chapter. Loans that do not comply with the criteria for standard
Loan Programs may be eligible for purchase under a non-standard Loan Program.

Client Underwriting Responsibility
The Client represents and warrants that all Loans sold to GMAC-RFC meet the eligibility and
underwriting guidelines as set forth in this Client Guide.
The Client is responsible for the credit and property underwriting regardless of whether the
credit information and appraisal were required or any Loan processing functions were
performed by an entity other than the Client or any entity related to the Client.

GMAC-RFC Underwriting Review
GMAC-RFC may perform, at its sole discretion, a quality control or underwriting review of any
Loan prior to or after GMAC-RFC has funded the Loan. The potential for review and the depth
of the review increases for Loans with high risk characteristics, for new Clients and for Clients
with performance or other risk issues. High risk Loan characteristics may include:
Loans that fail the credit guidelines for the product and grade being delivered
Low score/high LTV Loans
High balance/high cash-out Loans or
High balance/ARM Loans
Upon completion of its review, GMAC-RFC will notify the Client of any material Loan
deficiencies. At its sole discretion GMAC-RFC may deny funding, allow re-pricing or require
repurchase of any Loan that is ineligible for the program under which the Loan is submitted
to GMAC-RFC. GMAC-RFC is committed to standards of reasonableness in underwriting
judgment and will exercise its sole discretion only when the Loan deficiency is a material
breach of the standards disclosed in this Client Guide.

403
Loan Application Analysis
The Loan application assists in determining the Borrowers eligibility for the Loan. During the
completion and review of the application, the Client agrees to analyze this eligibility in the
following manner:
Verify and substantiate the quantity, quality and durability of the Borrowers primary
income and other income (does not apply to Loans with the following documentation
types: Stated Income, No Ratio, Stated Income/Stated Asset, No Income/No Asset,
and No Doc)
Verify and analyze the Borrowers assets to determine if adequate funds are available
to meet the equity requirements of the Loan transaction and liquid reserve
requirements
Verify and substantiate the Borrowers liabilities and credit history and relate those
liabilities to the Borrowers assets and income
Evaluate the Borrowers net worth in relation to his or her ability to manage financial
affairs
Verify that the declarations are consistent with program eligibility

404
Electronic Documentation Standards
GMAC-RFC will accept Electronic Verification for employment, income, assets or
appraisals. GMAC-RFC, at its sole discretion, may require additional or original
documentation.

Credit
This Credit Chapter sets out standards that apply to all GMAC-RFC Loan Programs. Generally,
requirements that vary from one standard Loan Program to another are described in the
individual Loan Program Chapters. In most cases, differences will not be referenced in this
Chapter.

A400
Credit Report Requirements
The Loan file must contain, for each Borrower whose income or assets are required to qualify
for the Loan, one of the following types of credit reports:
Full Residential Mortgage Credit Report (RMCR), which must conform in all respects to
all applicable Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac requirements
In-File credit report that accesses at least two or three credit repositories (three
sources are preferred)
The credit report must contain complete information provided by all repositories used and
must be issued by an independent credit reporting agency from acceptable repositories. If
the Borrower has lived in his or her current residence for less than 12 months, credit must be
searched using the current and the former address.
GMAC-RFC requires that the credit report(s) used to evaluate a Loan for purchase may not
have Frozen Credit. This applies to all Borrowers on all Loans submitted to Assetwise or on
a manual basis. If a Borrower unfreezes their credit after the original credit report was
ordered, a new three-file merged credit report must be obtained to reflect current updated
information from all repositories. As addressed in this Client Guide, GMAC-RFC accepts nontraditional credit in certain limited cases. However, non-traditional credit will not be accepted
as a replacement for Frozen Credit.

A401
Credit Score Requirements
Each credit report must contain a Fair Isaac Credit Score (Empirica on TransUnion;
Beacon on Equifax; and FICO on Experian, f.k.a. TRW) for all Borrowers whose income
and/or assets are required to qualify for the Loan. The Credit Score will be used as a
component in evaluating the credit grade of the Loan.
Credit Score models are periodically updated by credit vendors. To ensure the most
predictive score is used, the Client must instruct each credit report vendor to use the most
current version of their Credit Score model in their report.
Client must provide at least two qualifying Credit Scores for grading purposes. See
Minimum Credit History & Trade Line Requirements Section in this Chapter.

A402
Selecting Credit Score
Selecting the Credit Score for Loan qualification is a two-step process. First, the score must
be selected for each individual Borrower and then the score used for Loan qualification will be
selected.
(A) Selection
The Client must select the Credit Score for each Borrower by using one of the following
methods:
The lower score of two repositories or
The middle score of three repositories
If more than one Credit Score is supplied from the same repository, GMAC-RFC will use the
lowest score in all cases.
(B) Loan Qualification Score
Primary Borrower is defined as the Borrower with the highest verified income. A nonoccupant Co-Borrower, when assisting an occupant Borrower to qualify, cannot be
considered the Primary Borrower.
For the following documentation types the Primary Borrowers Credit Score is used: Full,
Lite, One Paystub, and Fast Income Documentation Loans. These income documentation
types allow a non-primary Borrower not meeting the minimum Credit Score requirements
to be eligible. All other credit evaluation components must be met.
For the following documentation types the Primary Borrower is undetermined so the lowest
selected Credit Score among all Borrowers is used: Stated Income, No Ratio, Stated
Income/Stated Asset, No Income/No Asset, and No Doc. All Borrowers must meet minimum
Credit Score and all other credit evaluation components.

A403
Minimum Credit History & Trade Line Requirements
(A) Credit History
All credit grades require a Credit Score based on:
A minimum two year credit history
At least one trade (derogatory or non-derogatory) reported in the past six months
A minimum number of non-derogatory tradelines based on credit grade and income
documentation type

Credit Evaluation Overview
The manner in which the Borrower has managed his/her previous credit is a strong indicator
of future performance. In a subjective evaluation of credit, many factors are considered
when evaluating a Borrowers credit history. These include:
Credit repayment history
Line utilization
Proportion of balances to limits on revolving accounts
Proportion of current balances to original balances on installment accounts
Patterns of debt pyramiding
Recent inquiries and newly opened accounts
Number of open accounts and length of credit history
Public record information
GMAC-RFC has compelling evidence that the Credit Score of the Borrower, based on
empirically-derived statistical models, provides an accurate objective evaluation of these
same factors. GMAC-RFC will use the Credit Score, along with other credit information such
as previous mortgage/rental payment, bankruptcy, foreclosure and Major Adverse Account
history to properly classify the credit quality of the Loan. For credit grades A1 to A3 and
Home Solution A4, credit quality together with the Borrowers capacity to handle the subject
Loan, as measured by the total debt ratio, will drive the Loans credit grade.
For the AlterNet Program, credit grade will be determined by mortgage or rental payment
history. While bankruptcy, foreclosure and major adverse account history have rules that
must be applied, only mortgage and rental history will determine credit grade.
Separate rules for grading apply based on credit grade. See Credit Evaluation
Components Section.

Credit Evaluation Components
(A) Housing Payment History
Mortgage history (or prior rental history) must be verified for the most recent 12 months if it
does not appear on the credit report. Acceptable sources include VOM, VOR, cancelled checks
or payoff statement. The Client must obtain the current balance, current status and monthly
payment amount. Rental history may need to be established with canceled checks.
For those credit grades that evaluate a 24-month housing payment history, the following
documentation is required:
If the credit report provides 12 or more months of housing payment history, this is
sufficient to meet payment history requirements. The most recent 24 months of
housing payment history will be used for grading purposes
If less than 12 months is provided on the credit report, the most recent 12 months
housing payment history must be documented
Housing payment history on any property (regardless of occupancy) is considered mortgage
credit for grading purposes.
Payments on a Manufactured Home, timeshare or second mortgage are considered to be
mortgage debt, even if reported as an installment Loan. Additionally, any repossession or
payment >=120 days late on a Manufactured Home, even if shown as an installment Loan,
will be considered a foreclosure.
First-time Homebuyers may not be acceptable under all Loan Programs. Check individual
Loan Program information for restrictions.
For credit grades A1 to A5, housing history may not be 30 days or more past due at time of
application. Any Loan submitted that is currently 30 days delinquent will receive at most an
Ax credit grade.
For credit grades A4 to C, verification of housing payment history must include the payment
due the month prior to Note date. To meet this requirement, the Client may provide updates
to the acceptable sources of notification listed above or a processors certification that
includes:
Date of verification
Mortgage history meets grading requirements
Name, phone number and title of verifier
Name and title of person making the call

For credit grades Ax to C, housing payment history is determined as follows:


Rolling LatesConsecutive, identical Delinquencies. There is no limit to the number
of months rolling Delinquencies can occur to be counted as one event. For example, a
mortgage rating with a three-month history with 30, 30, 30 day Delinquencies is
considered 1x30 for grading purposes.
Progressive Cumulative LatesDelinquencies that increase in severity. The most
severe Delinquency reached is considered one event. For example, a mortgage rating
with a three-month history with a 30, 60, 90 day Delinquency is considered 1x90 for
grading purposes.
Intermittent LatesA pattern of late payments that is not consecutive, but is broken
into intervals. For example, a mortgage rating with a three-month history reflecting
the following is considered 2x30 for grading purposes:
First Month:
Second Month:
Third Month:

30-day Delinquency
Current
30-day Delinquency

(B) Bankruptcy
Bankruptcy dismissal dates are treated the same as discharge dates.
For all credit grades, Chapter 7 bankruptcy is measured from discharge date
For credit grades A1 to A3, Chapter 13 bankruptcy is measured from discharge date
For credit grades A4 to C, Chapter 13 bankruptcy is measured from filing date
(C) Foreclosure
The length of time since the occurrence or completion of the foreclosure are considered in
the credit evaluation. Foreclosure is evidenced by 120 or more days Delinquent status or the
existence of the following:
Notice of default
Notice of sale
Notice of pendency
Notice of hearing
Notice of election and demand
Deed of substitution to trustee
Deed-in-lieu
Petition

(D) Forebearance, Rearrangement or Workout


A forebearance on a mortgage will be considered as a foreclosure for grading purposes. An
agreement to forebear, workout or otherwise rearrange the terms or debt shall not change
the fact that such debt was not paid as agreed in accordance with its original terms; this is
true even if the debt was subsequently paid as agreed in accordance with the rearranged
terms. This fact must be considered in determining whether a new Loan satisfies GMACRFCs underwriting requirements.
(E) Consumer Credit Counseling
For credit grades A1 to A3, consumer credit counseling will be treated the same as a Chapter
13 bankruptcy for grading purposes.
For credit grade A4, consumer credit counseling will not affect the credit grade if the plan has
been paid as agreed and paid off prior to or at closing. If the consumer credit counseling has
been dismissed or withdrawn the full original payment of all debts will be included in the DTI.
Mortgage accounts included in consumer credit counseling will be treated as a forebearance.
If Delinquent in the most recent 12 months, the consumer credit counseling will be treated
as an open Chapter 13 for grading purposes.
(F) Major Adverse Credit
(1) For credit grades A1 to A3:
Collection accounts, charge-off accounts, judgments, liens, delinquent property
taxes, repossessions, garnishments and accounts showing 90 days or more
delinquent are considered to be Major Adverse Credit.
All State, IRS and property tax liens are required to be paid whether or not
they currently affect title. No payment plans or subordination allowed. Property
tax liens on other properties will be considered Major Adverse Credit. Federal
tax liens older than ten years are not required to be paid unless the title
company requires payoff
Adverse accounts over 24 months old that do not affect title will not be
considered in grade determination and are not required to be paid
Cumulative adverse accounts, less than $500 may be left open provided they
do not affect title

For the AlterNet Program, Major Adverse Credit must be followed, however, it
does not determine credit grade.
Collection accounts, charge-off accounts, judgments, liens, delinquent property
taxes, repossessions, garnishments and accounts currently 90 days or more
delinquent are considered to be Major Adverse Credit.
Medical accounts will not be required to be paid. Aggregate totals exceeding
the CLTV limits for the Loan transaction will be reviewed on a case by case
basis
All State, IRS and property tax liens are required to be paid whether or not
they currently affect title. No payment plans or subordination allowed. Property
tax liens on other properties will be considered Major Adverse Credit. Federal
tax liens older than ten years are not required to be paid unless the title
company requires payoff
Any current 90-day or more delinquent account must be brought current before
or at closing
Adverse accounts over 24 months old that do not affect title will not be
considered in grade determination and are not required to be paid
For Home Solution credit grade A4, cumulative adverse accounts, less than
$500 may be left open provided they do not affect title
For AlterNet non-medical cumulative adverse accounts less than 24 months
seasoned, must be paid off if it exceeds amounts listed below:
Owner Occupied
For LTVs <= 90%, $5,000 may be left open provided it does not affect title
For LTVs >90%, $1,500 may be left open provided it does not affect title
Non-owner Occupied
$1,500 may be left open provided it does not affect title
(G) Credit Score
A range of Credit Scores is allowed for each credit grade. See the Selecting Credit Score
Section to determine the appropriate score to use for the Loan.
For the AlterNet Program, credit grade will be determined by mortgage or rental payment
history.

(J) Qualifying Debt Ratios


Debt-to-Income Ratios, as defined in the Borrowers Liabilities Section of Chapter 4B,
Liabilities & Debt Ratios, is a determinant in establishing the Loan Program for which the
Borrower is eligible. Maximum allowable DTIs vary by individual Loan Programs. See
individual Loan Programs for DTI limits.
First mortgage Loans that exceed the individual Loan Program standards, may be eligible for
purchase as an exception under a non-standard Loan Program or will be slotted to a Loan
Program that accepts higher DTIs regardless of credit grade.
With the presence of minimum Credit Scores and acceptable compensating factors, GMACRFC allows flexibility in its debt ratio guidelines for first mortgages.
DTI flexibility is not permitted under the following circumstances:
Loans with credit grades A1 to A3
Loans under the Home Solution Program

Upgrading the Credit Grade
A credit grade upgrade may be warranted for Loans that have sufficient compensating
factors. A Loan may be upgraded if it fails to qualify for a higher grade based solely on the
failure to meet a single credit characteristic of that higher grade. Only one upgrade may be
used on a Loan. All other requirements for a higher credit grade must be met except for the
single requirement being overridden.
For credit grades A1 to A3, two upgrade options are available. Minimum Credit Scores are
required.
Credit Score or Major Adverse Credit (minimum Credit Score 620)
Bankruptcy or foreclosure (minimum Credit Score 660)
Credit upgrades are not permitted for the following:
Home Solution Program
AlterNet Program
Second Mortgages
(A) Upgrade Option I: Credit Score or Major Adverse Credit Upgrade for Credit
Grades A1 to A3 (First Mortgage Programs Only)
Allows upgrade into credit grades A1 to A3 only. Loan may only be upgraded one credit
grade. All other credit characteristics (Credit Score, mortgage payment history, bankruptcy,
foreclosure, Major Adverse Credit, standard DTI ratios) must meet the requirements for
the credit grade.
The Client may upgrade a Loan by reducing the Loan-to-Value (LTV)/Combined Loan-toValue (CLTV) if the Loan fails to qualify for the next higher grade only because of its failure to
meet a single credit characteristic of that next higher grade. The LTV/CLTV cannot exceed
80% and must be either 10% or 20% below the program maximum the Borrower ultimately
qualifies for as a result of the upgrade, as shown in the matrix below.
LTV/CLTV Reduction

Credit Requirement Override

Cannot exceed 80%; and must be 10% below program


maximum Borrower qualifies for with the upgrade.

Up to 20 points in Credit Score

Cannot exceed 80%; and must be 20% below program


maximum Borrower qualifies for with the upgrade.

>20 points in Credit Score

Major Adverse Credit <=$1,0001


Major Adverse Credit >$1,000 but <=$2,0001

Note: A 10% LTV/CLTV reduction is sufficient to upgrade Credit Score for every upgrade except A3 to A2 (when
the Credit Score is 620-659) and A2 to A1 (when the Credit Score is 680-699); in those two cases a 20% reduction
in LTV/CLTV is required for the upgrade.
1 These amounts include the $500 allowed under the Major Adverse Credit definition. These amounts may be
left open provided they do not affect title.

(B) Upgrade Option II: Bankruptcy or Foreclosure Upgrade Option for Credit Grades
A1 to A3 (First Mortgage Programs Only)
Allows upgrade into credit grades A1 to A3 only. The Client may upgrade a Loan if it fails to
qualify for a credit grade based on bankruptcy or foreclosure history only if the occurrence
can be attributed to extenuating circumstances as outlined in this Section.
All other credit characteristics (Credit Score, housing payment history, Major
Adverse Credit, standard DTI ratios) must meet the requirements for the credit
grade.
Either bankruptcy or foreclosure may be overridden, but not both.
Additional layering of risk such as instability of income, ratios outside of standard
program guidelines, equity withdrawals (cash-out transactions) or significant payment
shock must not be present.
Borrower must have Re-established Credit by demonstrating both of the following:
Minimum of 12 months verified housing payments with no delinquencies
Minimum of four trade lines open for 24 months with no delinquencies. At least
one trade line must have a credit line of at least $1,000
Provide copies of all bankruptcy papers and Notice of Discharge or appropriate
documents to establish the date of bankruptcy, foreclosure or deed-related action
Provide evidence that all debts not satisfied by the bankruptcy have been paid or have

Required documentation of extenuating circumstances:
Borrowers written statement, which must attribute the cause of the financial
difficulties to factors beyond his or her control that are not ongoing and are
unlikely to recur
Supporting documentation to verify the extenuating circumstances. The
supporting documentation must correlate to the Borrowers explanation and
confirm the events were an isolated occurrence which resulted in a sudden,
significant and prolonged reduction in income or a catastrophic increase in
financial obligation
Documentation of extenuating circumstances is not required when the Borrower
has a discharged Chapter 13 Bankruptcy
Borrowers with a bankruptcy/foreclosure caused by extenuating circumstances represent
less risk than Borrowers with a bankruptcy/foreclosure caused by financial mismanagement
and receive more favorable underwriting guidelines as outlined below:

(1) Bankruptcy/Foreclosure caused by extenuating circumstances


Extenuating Circumstances: GMAC-RFC considers an extenuating circumstance to
be a circumstance or set of circumstances, beyond the Borrowers control that
significantly reduced income and/or increased expenses and rendered the Borrower
unable to repay obligations as agreed.
Examples of circumstances to support reductions of income include but are not
limited to: extended illnesses that resulted in an inability to generate income; death
of a principal wage earner; loss of employment due to factory closings or reduction
in work force.
Examples of circumstances to support increased expenses include but are not limited
to: medical bills caused by a serious long term illness/medical emergency, increased
expenses due to a natural disaster (such as a period of dual housing costs and
increased living expenses or temporary housing after a flood).
To upgrade the credit grade of a Loan where bankruptcy or foreclosure occurred due
to extenuating circumstances, the following requirements must be met:
Minimum 660 Credit Score
At least two years must have elapsed since the bankruptcy discharge, the
completion of foreclosure proceeding, or the date of the deed-related action.
(2) Bankruptcy/Foreclosure Caused by Financial MismanagementNo
Upgrades
Financial Mismanagement: Financial mismanagement may be the result of the
use of too much credit or the inability to manage credit. Typically, Borrowers had
previously continued to increase credit usage to the point that they were no longer
willing or able to support the debt service. GMAC-RFC will not consider a credit
upgrade for bankruptcies or foreclosure proceedings that have occurred in less than
the established timeframes for situations that show disregard to financial
obligations. Examples of situations that would be considered financial
mismanagement may include:
Temporary loss of employment (considered to be 6 months or less that are due
to voluntary, involuntary or seasonal layoff)
Advice of an attorney
Over extension of debt not related to a catastrophic event
Poor investments

Liabilities & Debt Ratios
This Liabilities & Debt Ratios Chapter sets out standards that apply to all GMAC-RFC Loan
Programs. Generally, requirements that vary from one standard Loan Program to another are
described in the individual Loan Program Chapters. In most cases, differences will not be
referenced in this Chapter.

B400
Qualifying RatiosPayment
(A) Housing to Income Ratios
The Client must ensure that the Borrowers income will support the total housing expense on
an ongoing basis. GMAC-RFC will give consideration to Borrowers who have demonstrated an
ability to carry a similar or greater housing expense for an extended period.
Monthly housing expenses include:
Principal and interest payments on the first mortgage Loan
Interest payments for Loans with Interest Only feature
Hazard insurance premiums
Real estate taxes
Additional housing expenses include:
Principal and interest on subordinate financing
Mortgage insurance premiums
Flood insurance premiums
Leasehold payments

(C) Total Debt-to-Income Ratios


In evaluating the total Debt-to-Income Ratio (DTI), the Client should be aware of the
degree and frequency of credit usage and its impact on the Borrowers ability to repay the
Loan. Borrowers who lower their total obligations will receive favorable consideration.
Borrowers with a history of heavy credit usage and a pattern of slow or late payments will
receive less flexibility.
The following items are considered:
Monthly housing expenses
Revolving charges (If no payment is showing, use 5% of the outstanding balance.)
Installment debt and leases (Paying down to fewer than 11 payments is not allowed for
qualification purposes.)
Real estate Loans
Automobile Loans
Automobile leases (Must be included in the DTI even if fewer than 11 payments are
remaining.)
Net rental losses from real estate owned
Alimony, child support or maintenance payments with 11 or more remaining payments
Divorced and separated Borrowers joint obligations will be considered in accordance
with Co-Signed Debts and Divorce Debts Sections of this Client Guide
Student Loans (unless deferred for more than 12 months)
Loans secured by 401(k), life insurance or other liquid asset accounts may be excluded in the
calculation of DTI unless the funds are used to meet program requirements for reserves and/
or liquid assets or as a compensating factor.
With the presence of minimum Credit Scores and acceptable compensating factors,
GMAC-RFC allows flexibility in its debt ratio guidelines for first mortgages. For flexibility
ranges and compensating factors see individual Programs.

Borrowers Liabilities
The Client must verify all outstanding liabilities of the Borrower as part of their submission of
the Loan to GMAC-RFC. There may be restrictions in Debt-to-Income Ratios. See the
West Virginia Loans Section in Chapter 3C, Financing, for details.
The following debts must be included in the Borrowers Debt-to-Income Ratio:
Monthly housing expenses
Revolving charges (If no payment is showing, use 5% of the outstanding balance.)
Installment debt and leases (Paying down to fewer than 11 payments is not allowed for
qualification purposes.)
Real estate Loans
Automobile Loans
Automobile leases (Must be included in the DTI even if fewer than 11 payments are
remaining.)
Net rental losses from real estate owned
Alimony, child support or maintenance payments with 11 or more remaining payments
Divorced and separated Borrowers joint obligations will be considered in accordance
with the Co-Signed Debts and Divorce Debts Sections of this Client Guide
Student Loans (unless deferred for more than 12 months)
Payment for Loans secured by 401(k), life insurance or other liquid asset accounts may be
excluded from DTI calculations unless the account is used to meet program reserves and/or
liquid asset requirements or is used as a compensating factor. The Borrower, however, may
liquidate the non-secured portion of the account for use as down payment.
While GMAC-RFC does not require a written explanation of inquiries showing on the
Borrowers credit report, it is recommended that the Client check on recent inquires to
determine whether there are undisclosed debts for the Borrower.

B402
Debt Payoff
Pay off of Debt
When the Borrower indicates debt will be paid at the closing of the new mortgage Loan,
GMAC-RFC will not include the payment in the Debt-to-Income Ratio. The paid bill(s),
canceled check(s) or a settlement statement (HUD-1) evidencing payment must be
submitted.

B403
Co-Signed Debts
If the Borrower is a co-signer or guarantor on any Loans, those liabilities must be indicated
on the Loan application. The payments for these Loans will be included in the Borrowers
total monthly debt unless satisfactory documentation is provided to prove that the primary
debtor has been making the payments on a regular basis. For credit grades A1 to A3, at least
three months canceled checks are required from the primary debtor. For credit grades A4 to
C, at least six months canceled checks are required from the primary debtor.

B404
Divorce Debts
Debts opened jointly with a former spouse will be considered as an obligation of the Borrower
unless a legal separation agreement or divorce decree is provided to prove the former
spouse is responsible for the debt.

B405
Business Debts
Debts paid by the Borrowers business will not be considered in the Borrower ratios if the
Client provides canceled checks drawn on the business account indicating they have been
paid on a regular basis for a minimum of six months.

B406
Borrower Capacity
The Borrowers ability to repay mortgage debt is critical in evaluating the asset quality.
GMAC-RFC will assess the Borrowers liabilities for the number of active accounts, usage and
repayment history. Evaluation of the Borrowers capacity includes an assessment of the
Borrowers financial obligations in relation to income. The credit quality, coupled with the
Borrowers financial obligations, determines the acceptable grade of the Loan.

B407
Student Loans
If the Borrower has a student Loan that is currently deferred, the payment can be excluded
from the debt ratio if the Client provides verification from the creditor that payment will not
be required from the Borrower for the next 12 months.

This Cash to Close Chapter sets out standards that apply to all GMAC-RFC Loan Programs.
Generally, requirements that vary from one standard Loan Program to another are described
in the individual Loan Program Chapters. In most cases, differences will not be referenced in
this Chapter.

C400
Cash to Close
The Client must determine and provide evidence that the Borrower has sufficient cash to pay
the down payment, prepaid items and closing costs and adequate additional cash reserves as
the Program requires. Reserves, when required, must come from Borrowers own cash.
Except for Stated Income/Stated Asset, No Income/No Asset, and No Doc, GMAC-RFC
requires cash to close to be sourced and verified. Electronic Verifications are acceptable.
Borrower must satisfactorily explain any recent large deposits if used to qualify for the Loan.
(A) Deposit Verification/Seasoning
Requirements for verification and seasoning of cash to close vary by Loan Program.
For all Loan Programs, if the verification of cash to close reveals a significant recent
increase in the average balance of an existing account, recent large deposits or a newlyopened account with a significant balance, the Borrower must explain the increase and the
Client must document this explanation.
GMAC-RFC encourages the Client to verify all sources of liquid assets beyond the amount
needed to meet the requirement of the transaction so that, if necessary, these assets may be
considered as a compensating factor in underwriting the Loan.
(B) Minimum Down Payment
For most Loan Programs, GMAC-RFC requires the Borrower to make a minimum down
payment from his or her own cash or other equity. Specific requirements are detailed in
Chapter 6, Loan Programs.

(C) Definition of Cash


Cash is defined to be any of the following:
(1) Funds on deposit in the Borrowers checking, money market, savings account or
marketable securities.
(2) Cash Value life insurance. The Client must verify the cash Value of life insurance with
a letter from the insurance company.
(3) Proceeds of a Loan fully secured by the Borrowers assets.
(a) Borrower Assets
Borrower assets are proceeds of a Loan fully secured by a Borrowers assets.
This includes funds such as those borrowed against a certificate of deposit,
marketable securities, insurance policies, qualified retirement plans or a bridge
Loan. The Client must verify the Loans terms in writing. Loans secured by
401(k), life insurance or other liquid asset accounts may be excluded in the
calculation of DTI unless the funds are used to meet program requirements for
reserves and/or liquid assets or as a compensating factor.
A Loan secured by the account may be used for down payment on the subject
property or any other purpose. The unsecured portion of the account may be
liquidated for the down payment of the subject property or for any other use.
(b) Bridge/Swing Financing
Bridge/Swing Financing must be included in the Borrowers monthly obligations.
The Client must disclose the terms of the Bridge Loan including its monthly
payment. GMAC-RFC will qualify the Borrower by adding the Bridge Loan
payment and prior home mortgage payment to the Borrowers total obligations.
The Borrowers Debt-to-Income Ratios must conform to GMAC-RFCs program
guidelines. If the Bridge Loan payment is not monthly, it must be converted to
an Interest Only payment at the contractual interest rate. If this rate is
unavailable, the Client may use GMAC-RFCs current 30-year, fixed market rate
for qualification purposes. Note that the Bridge Loan cannot be crosscollateralized against the Mortgaged Premises.
The Client must provide the following documents:
Copy of the Loan Commitment, including all terms
Copy of the listing agreement or purchase agreement if the property is sold
but not closed
If the Borrower is relocated and his/her employer assumes responsibility for the
existing home mortgage payment, GMAC-RFC will not include the payment in
the Debt-to-Income Ratio as long as the Client submits a copy of the
relocation agreement to support the employers responsibility.
(4) Proceeds from the sale of the Borrowers assets. The verification of the sale of real
estate must include a copy of a HUD-1 Form.
(5) Cash deposit toward the purchase of the Mortgaged Premises or the lot on which
the improvements were constructed, the source of which is verifiable. If the
Borrower receives cash back as a refund of the original cash deposit at closing,
evidence of payment of the deposit is required (e.g., cancelled check).

(D) Definition of Other Equity


Other equity includes:
(1) The current appraised Value of the lot owned by the Borrower on which the subject
improvement was constructed, less any lien. However, if the lot was purchased less
than 12 months prior to the Loan's application date, the other equity must be based
on the lesser of the purchase price or current appraised Value of the lot.
(2) The net proceeds of the trade-in of the Borrowers previously owned home. An
appraisal on the property being taken in trade is required to adequately substantiate
Value to insure the amount of equity.
(3) The net proceeds of property sold as part of a 1031 Tax Deferred Exchange. (Can be
used for the purchase of an investment/non-owner occupied property only.)
(4) Gift funds or a gift of equity in the subject property from the Borrowers immediate
family that does not have to be repaid.
Gift funds must be verified by a gift letter and one of the following:
Receipt of funds
Donors ability to provide gift
Verification of a gift of equity must be reflected on the purchase agreement or
HUD-1.
Immediate family is defined as follows:
Parents
Siblings
Children
Spouse
Grandparents
Aunts
Uncles
(5) Credit for labor performed or material furnished by the Borrower on the Mortgaged
Premises as part of a pre-closing agreement with the builder. This amount must not
exceed 5% of Value. Any labor performed must be completed in a workmanlike
manner, and the credit amount must be consistent with the area's labor costs.

charge account or an unsecured line of credit.
(2) A gift that must be repaid in full or in part.
(3) Labor performed or material furnished by the Borrower that is not a part of a preclosing agreement with the builder.
(4) Any payment received as a result of being a party to the sales transaction (e.g., real
estate commission payments).

D400
Borrower Income
The Client must determine if the Borrowers income from either primary or secondary
sources is adequately verified, is sufficient to repay the debt in a timely manner, is likely to
continue and is stable. All income necessary to qualify for the Loan must be derived from
within the United States or a U.S. Possession or Territory.
If the Loan has been assumed prior to submission to GMAC-RFC, the credit underwriting
determination must be made with respect to the assuming Borrower.

D401
Employment and Income Analysis
Stable income may come from many sources. Part-time, second-job or multiple-job income
may be considered as stable income if it can be verified as having been uninterrupted for the
previous two years and has a strong likelihood of continuation.
Other income, such as bonus, commission, overtime or unemployment compensation will be
considered if the Borrower has received income for the most recent two years. Borrowers
who have made job changes for advancement and maintained a stable earning capacity and
good credit history, as well as Borrowers with demonstrated job stability, will be eligible.
Education or training to enhance job opportunities and income will receive favorable
consideration. The Borrower must explain employment gaps more than two months in
writing.
GMAC-RFC requires a minimum of two years employment history and continuance of income
for three years.
The employment status of the Primary Borrower (as defined in the Selecting Credit
Score Section of Chapter 4A, Credit) is used to determine income documentation type. The
non-primary Borrower is subject to the limitations of the documentation type.

GMAC-RFC categorizes wage earners as follows:
(A) Wage Earner
Wage earners receive a wage or salary from an employer in return for a service rendered and
has less than 25% ownership interest in the business. Compensation may be based on an
hourly, weekly, monthly or semi-monthly basis. For employees paid on an hourly basis, the
verification must state the hourly wages, including the number of hours worked each week.
(B) Wage EarnerBonus or Overtime
Bonus or overtime income is compensation in addition to an employees straight salary or
hourly wage. GMAC-RFC will accept stable bonus or overtime income with a two year history.
(C) Wage EarnerTips or Gratuity
Tips or Gratuity income is compensation in addition to an employees straight salary or
hourly wage. GMAC-RFC will accept stable tips or gratuity income with a two year history.
(D) Wage EarnerCommission
Commission income is defined as a fee or percentage paid to an employee for performing a
service. GMAC-RFC will accept stable commission income with a two year history.

Self-Employed Income
GMAC-RFC defines self-employed Borrowers as those who are principals of a corporation,
controlling partners or sole proprietors. Evidence that the Borrower has at least two
consecutive years of self-employment in the same business entity and ongoing, stable
income are required.
Self-Employed income is received directly from a business entity in which the Borrower
holds a majority interest (25%+ stock ownership). Business income must be reported
as a sole proprietorship, partnership or corporation.
Borrowers operating a business on a draw against commission basis but do not have
actual ownership in the parent company, such as insurance or real estate agents, are
considered to be self-employed for qualification purposes.
Borrowers who rely on investments for income (e.g., interest, dividends, capital gains or real
estate) will be treated as self-employed.
To determine a self-employed Borrowers income, the Client must complete the Income
Analysis Worksheets (GMAC-RFC Form 16A01 and Form 1403). The individual tax return
worksheet uses a cash flow analysis of the Borrowers wages and other income. GMAC-RFC
will also allow self-employed income to be calculated using Fannie Maes Self-Employed
Income Analysis Form 1084A or 1084B, and requires compliance with IRS regulations.
GMAC-RFC will consider other income if tax returns indicate it has been received for at least
two years at a consistent level. Interest and dividend income is eligible after deducting that
portion listed on Schedule B which is derived from a partnership or S corporation.
(A) Sole Proprietorship
GMAC-RFC evaluates Schedule C sole proprietorship income using total profit or loss plus any
depreciation or depletion reported, minus the IRS exclusion for entertainment expenses.
Net farm income reported on Schedule F is eligible with the addition of any depreciation,
pension, amortization, depletion or casualty loss expenses.
Capital gain income/losses are considered after subtracting losses incurred on assets
acquired in one of the tax years being analyzed.
Rental income reported on schedule E is used after deducting total expenses to arrive at net
income.

Income Types

(B) Partnership Income


If the Borrower reports partnership income on Schedule E, GMAC-RFC requires a copy of the
appropriate K-1 schedule to determine the Borrowers cash flow received from the
partnership. Income from a 1065 partnership is determined by deducting capital
contributions from the Borrowers total withdrawals and guaranteed payments.
Partnership Income Analysis
The Client must analyze the cash flow of a partnership to assess the stability of the
Borrowers personal cash flow.
GMAC-RFC determines partnership cash flow by analyzing the 1065 tax return and giving
credit for ordinary income, depreciation, depletion and pension expenses. Amortization or
casualty loss deductions listed under other deductions may be added to the total.
Discretionary losses will be excluded from the cash flow analysis if the business is a limited
partnership and the Borrower provides a copy of the partnership agreement, stating that all
subsequent contributions are voluntary.
(C) Corporate Income
Income of Borrowers who are principals of a corporation is generally reported as W-2
earnings or Schedule E earnings. The Client may use an average of the Borrowers prior two
years earnings to determine the income that may be used to qualify the Borrower.
Additionally, the Client must analyze the business tax returns to assess the likelihood of
continued personal income to the Borrower.
(1) Corporate Income Analysis
The cash flow of the corporation and an analysis of the trends experienced by the
business will be used to determine its viability.
GMAC-RFC will consider taxable income minus total tax and will add back
depreciation, depletion, pension or net operating loss deductions listed on the
return. If other deductions include amortization or casualty losses, they may be
added back.
GMAC-RFC will not recognize income retained in the business as personal cash flow
to the Borrower unless the Client can demonstrate that the Borrower is 100% owner
and that the withdrawal of funds will have no effect on the corporations continued
growth.
(2) SubS Corporation
S corporation K-1 income is determined by giving credit for property distributions
(including cash) made to the Borrower.

Fixed Income
GMAC-RFC defines fixed income as income derived from sources such as alimony and child
support, social security, pension or disability. If a type of fixed income is used to qualify the
Borrower, the Client must document a history of regular receipt and the probability of
continuance for at least three years.
(A) Non-Taxable Income
Verified non-taxable income will be given special consideration if it is determined that such
income will continue for three years and that it will remain untaxed. Examples of non-taxable
income may include:
Certain military allowances
Disability retirement payments
Workers compensation benefits
Child support payments
Social security distributions
Public assistance payments
Non-taxable trust and inheritance income will be considered provided supporting
documentation is verified.
In order to evaluate a Borrower with non-taxable income in the same manner as a Borrower
who has a higher-taxable income, the underwriter will adjust, or gross-up, the non-taxable
income by 125%.
(B) Fixed Income Types
(1) Alimony, Child Support and Separate Maintenance Income
Alimony, child support and separate maintenance income will be considered, but
must be based on a court order, and verification must include:
A copy of the divorce decree or the court order showing that payments are
obligated for a minimum of three years beyond the date of the Note and
satisfactory proof of regular receipt of monthly payments.
Documentation for alimony, child support and household maintenance income
need not be included in the file if the Borrower chooses not to have these
sources of income considered.
(2) Disability or Workers Compensation Income
Disability or workers compensation income requires verification that the income will
continue for a minimum of three years.
(3) Permanent Disability
Income verification must include a copy of the insurance award letter showing the
percent or dollar amount for the permanent disability.

Pension income verification must include a copy of either most recent year of checks,
most recent year W-2P Form, or a letter indicating the yearly pension amount.
Verification that income will continue for at least three years is required.
(5) Social Security Income
Social security income verification must include a copy of the award letter or bank
statements showing automatic deposit. For childrens social security income or social
security disability income, verification that the income will continue for a minimum of
three years is required (unless award letter states improvement not expected).

D406
Rental Income
(A) Subject PropertyPurchase
(1) Cash flow for the subject property must be calculated by the net cash flow amount
established by the appraiser in the Operating Income Statement (Form 216) or
(2) 75% of actual rents from current lease agreement signed by the current owner and
lessee of the property
(B) Subject PropertyRefinance
Cash flow for the subject property must be calculated by one of the following two methods:
(1) For properties owned for one or more complete tax years, cash flow can be
calculated in one of the following manners:
75% of actual rents, established by copies of signed leases or
1040 tax returns Schedule E
(2) For property owned less than one complete tax year, net cash flow can be based on:
75% of actual rents, established by copies of signed leases or
Net cash flow amount established by the appraiser in the Operating Income
Statement (Form 216)
A positive cash flow is added to gross income; negative net cash flow is added to total
liabilities and used to qualify the Borrower.
A Loan for investment property generating a negative cash flow will be closely scrutinized
and must make sense for the Borrowers circumstances.
If total debt (PITI) for the subject property is being used in the Borrowers Debt-to-Income
Ratio, the above documentation is not required for purchase or refinance transactions.

(C) Non-subject Property


When considering income received from rental properties owned by the Borrower that are
NOT the subject property, the Client must calculate cash flow for rental property by one of
the following methods:
For properties owned for one or more complete tax years, cash flow can be calculated
in one of the following manners:
75% of actual rents, established by copies of signed leases or
1040 tax returns Schedule E
For properties owned less than one complete tax year, net cash flow must be based on
75% of actual rents, established by copies of signed leases
A positive cash flow is added to gross income; negative net cash flow is added to total
liabilities and used to qualify the Borrower.
If total debt (PITI) for the non-subject property is being used in the Borrowers Debt-toIncome Ratio, the above documentation is not required for purchase or refinance
transactions.

D407
Other Income
When the Borrower discloses income from an alternate source and chooses to use the income
to qualify for the Loan, the Client must document that the income will continue for a
minimum of three years.
GMAC-RFC considers the following types of other income:
Interest and dividend income
Income for Military Reserves not called to active duty
Income used for Military Reserves or National Guard called to active duty
Trust income
Note income
Inheritance and guaranteed income, such as lottery or prize earnings
Temporary disability income
Seasonal unemployment compensation
(A) Interest and Dividend Income
GMAC-RFC recognizes interest and dividend income when the income source is documented
on the application. However, the asset providing the interest and dividend income may not
be liquidated for cash to close unless that portion used is deducted and the interest and/or
dividend amount is recalculated based on the unused portion of the asset.

(B) Income for Military Reserves Not Called to Active Duty


Military Reserves who have not been called to active duty may use their military reserve
income to qualify, as long as they can provide a two-year history of receiving that income.
(C) Income Used For Military Reserves or National Guard Called to Active Duty
A Borrower called to active duty in the Military Reserves or National Guard is qualified based
on his or her income from civilian employment.
(D) Trust Income
A Borrowers trust income may be taxed at a lower rate or it may be part of a partnership
that writes off losses resulting in no tax liability. Trust income is reported on the 1041
fiduciary income tax return which includes a K-1 schedule. All beneficiaries of trust income
receive K-1s from the trust.
(E) Note Income
GMAC-RFC recognizes ongoing Note income as eligible for Loan qualification. The Client must
submit a copy of the Note outlining the amount and terms of payment. The repayment period
must extend at least three years from the date of the new mortgage Loan.
(F) Inherited and Guaranteed Income
GMAC-RFC recognizes ongoing income received from inheritance or other guaranteed
sources, such as prize earnings or lottery winnings as eligible for Loan qualification.
(G) Temporary Disability Income
GMAC-RFC recognizes temporary disability income when the source and stability of the
income is verified. Additionally, the conditions of termination of the disability income must be
documented.
(H) Seasonal Unemployment Compensation
GMAC-RFC recognizes unemployment compensation if it is typical for the Borrowers
employment type. Receipt of this income for the most recent two years must be
documented.

D408
Trailing or Relocating Co-Borrower
A maximum of 50% of the trailing or relocating co-Borrowers income may be considered
where:

Appraisal Requirements & Property Underwriting
This Appraisals and Property Underwriting Chapter sets out standards that apply to all GMACRFC Loan Programs. Generally, requirements that vary from one standard Loan Program to
another are described in the individual Loan Program Chapters. In most cases, differences
will not be referenced in this Chapter.

F400
Collateral Property Underwriting
The purpose of property underwriting is to determine if a Loan is secured by property that
provides sufficient Value to recover the investment if Loan default occurs. Establishing the
adequacy of the collateral for an investment quality Loan requires an accurate assessment of
the current fair market Value of the property and the factors which are likely to affect the
propertys future Value. The Client must perform this function or must ensure that it is
adequately performed.
(A) The Client must review each appraisal in detail to evaluate the following:
Adequate support for the Value of the property by the appraiser
Present and future marketability of the property
Completeness and correctness of the appraisal forms and exhibits
Applicability and timeliness of data used to determine marketability
Consistency, logic and accuracy of the appraisal
(B) Natural Disasters
In the event the subject property is located in an area that is declared a federal disaster area
after the appraisal has been issued, the Client is responsible to ensure that the property
meets the collateral requirements set forth above and in the No Adverse Circumstances
Section in Chapter 2A of this Client Guide.

Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice adopted by the Appraisal Standards Board of the
Appraisal Foundation.
The Client must review each appraisal in detail for completeness, accuracy and appraising
logic. Also, the Client assumes sole responsibility for the quality of the appraisal report as
well as its execution in strict accordance with all applicable local, State and federal laws,
regulations and orders.

(B) Field Review Appraisal


GMAC-RFC may require a field review appraisal. If so, use the Residential Appraisal Field
Review Report (Fannie Mae Form 2000/Freddie Mac Form 1032).
Lower Value of the original appraisal or the field review will be used to determine LTV/CLTV.
(C) Required Appraisal Attachments
Each appraisal must have the following attachments:
(1) Three clearly legible photograph prints of the propertyfront, rear and street scene
with the subject matter filling the full frame.
(2) Clearly legible photograph prints of any improvements made supporting an increase
in Value due to remodeling or renovation with the subject matter filling the full
frame.
(3) Clearly legible photograph prints of each sale comparable used on the Residential
Appraisal Reportfront scene with the subject matter filling the full frame.
(4) Location map showing the property and the comparables.
(5) Appraisers cover letter explaining unusual items not adequately addressed in the
appraisal.
(6) Diagram of the floor plan, detailing room layout.
(D) Completion of Appraisal Reports
The appraisal report must support the appraisers estimate of the Mortgaged Premises
market Value, and it must present to the reader a visual picture of the neighborhood, site
and improvements. The appraiser must use the comments section of the report to achieve
this goal and attach additional documentation if necessary.
(E) Conditions of Appraisal
(1) For appraisals submitted subject to repairs, alterations or conditions, or subject to
completion per plans and specifications, the Client must submit a Satisfactory
Completion Certificate (Fannie Mae Form 1004D/Freddie Mac Form 442) and photo
to GMAC-RFC on the Delivery Date. Whenever possible, the original appraiser must
prepare this certificate.
(2) For appraisals reflecting evidence of dampness, termites or abnormal settlement,
the Client must submit evidence of corrective action (i.e., an exterminators
certificate or an engineers report) to GMAC-RFC on the Delivery Date. If corrective
action is not a condition of the appraisal, the appraiser must comment on the effects
of the adverse conditions on Value and marketability.

(F) Energy Efficient Properties


The Mortgaged Premises may be considered an energy efficient property if it uses cost
effective design, materials, equipment and site orientation to conserve non-renewable fuel.
Design and installation of materials and equipment must be consistent with the areas
climate.
To support an energy efficient designation, the Client must attach an Energy Addendum
Residential Appraisal Report (Freddie Mac Form 70A) to the appraisal. The appraiser must
list any energy efficient items in the report and note the amount of their contribution to Value
in the Market Data Analysis section. The appraiser must indicate the adequacy of insulation
in the Mortgaged Premises Rating/Unit Rating section.
(G) Age of Appraisal
The appraisal report must be dated within 120 days of the date of the Note. If the appraisal
report is dated more than 120 days but less than 180 days from the date of the Note, the
original appraiser must certify that the Value of the Mortgaged Premises has not declined
since the date of the original appraisal. The certification must be dated within 60 days of the
date of the Note.
If the appraisal is dated more than 180 days from the date of the Note, a new appraisal is
required.
For new construction, if appraisal is dated more than 12 months from the date of the Note, a
new appraisal is required. A recertification of Value is required after 180 days from date of
appraisal.
For Second Mortgage Programs, the appraisal report must be dated within 12 months of
the Note. If an AVM is used, it must be dated within 180 days of the Note.
(H) Non-Discrimination
GMAC-RFC will reject any Loan supported by an appraisal report that makes reference to
race or the racial composition of the neighborhood.
(I) Appraisal Alternatives
For Second Mortgage Programs only, Automated Valuation Model (AVM) are an
acceptable method of valuing the collateral involved in the second mortgage transaction,
where permitted by State law. AVMs must be provided by a GMAC-RFC AVM Approved
Vendor (as stated in GMAC-RFC Exhibit 16G05) and dated within 180 days of the Note. For
the most up-to-date list of approved vendors and models see GMAC-RFCs corporate web site
at GMACResidentialFunding.com. GMAC-RFC does not accept AVMs when the Client has input
Property Data (other than the property address) or has altered or changed the AVM in any
way from the original product supplied from the vendor. In the event of a no-hit or
unsatisfactory result on the AVM, another alternative form of appraisal, as indicated in the
matrix should be used. For additional information regarding State specific appraisal
requirements and prohibitions see List of Eligible States (GMAC-RFC Exhibit 1302).

F403
Appraisal Evaluation
The appraisal information must provide a logical basis for evaluation. The appraiser must
present a concise picture of the neighborhood, site and improvements to support an
indicated Value by the cost approach and market data approach that adequately support the
estimate of market Value. The Client must determine that the appraiser has adequately
supported his or her opinion of the propertys Value.
When working with varying levels of credit quality, property valuation takes on increased
importance. While the adequacy of the appraisal is always a critical component in assessing
the Loans overall risk, the property becomes more important when working with the nonconforming credit Borrower or with a property that deviates from typical market standards.
Therefore, the appraisal report must strongly demonstrate the acceptability of the collateral.
Differences in acceptable property types and characteristics are determined by the Loan
Program under which the Loan is submitted. Higher credit grade Borrowers compensate for
expansion into higher risk property types. For instance, within GMAC-RFCs Expanded
Criteria Program, property types that traditionally present greater risk (such as CondoHotel) are acceptable as long as the Borrowers credit grade meets the standards of the
program (A quality as defined by grades A1 to A3, as defined in the Credit Evaluation
Components Section of Chapter 4A, Credit).
GMAC-RFC uses the components discussed below to assess the adequacy of appraisal
reports:
(A) Neighborhood Analysis
The neighborhood in which a property is located is a critical determinant of its marketability
and Value. The Client must analyze all factors presented in the appraisals Neighborhood
section. Favorable or unfavorable factors and any changes that have occurred in the prior
year that affect marketability of the properties within the neighborhood, must be addressed
by both the appraiser and Client.
In a neighborhood analysis, GMAC-RFC considers all elements of the propertys location
including:
Neighborhood property Values
Composition of the neighborhood
Marketing time
Present land use of the neighborhood
Price range and predominant Value
(1) Neighborhood Property Values
Property Values must be stable or increasing. The appraiser must substantiate this
by showing comparable sales within six months of the appraisal date.
Declining Values are a concern due to the potential for equity erosion. When a
property is located in an area described as declining in Value, GMAC-RFC may
consider the transaction when there is a substantial reduction in the Loan-to-Value
ratio.
Second Mortgage Programs restrict the CLTV limits available in areas of property
decline.

Appraisal Requirements &
Property Underwriting

(2) Neighborhood Composition


The degree to which a neighborhood is built up and its location within a metropolitan
area or rural area is used to assess the reasonableness of the comparable sales. In
other words, an appraisal for a property in an urban area that is highly built up must
provide sales data available within one mile of the subject property.
Rural properties are generally more difficult to assess. Marketing times may be
affected by their remote location. Therefore, proximity of the comparable sales will
be critical in determining the Rural Propertys marketability.
Maximum financing is not recommended when securing a Loan by a Rural Property.
If any one of the following criteria exists, the property will be classified as rural:
Appraiser classifies the property as rural
Less than 25% of the surrounding market area is developed
If at least 50% of the acceptable comparable properties are not within five
miles of the subject property, unless the appraiser provides sufficient
justification for the distance of the comparables and clarifies that the property
is not rural in nature
Loans must meet the maximum acreage requirements of each Loan Program.
(3) Marketing Time
Marketing time of properties in the subjects neighborhood must be less than six
months to assure no loss of equity.
(4) Present Land Use of the Neighborhood
A likely change in the neighborhoods land use would be of concern if the change
negatively affects the propertys future Value.
(5) Price Range and Predominant Value
A comparison of the predominant Value for the neighborhood must favorably reflect
the Mortgaged Premises Value. If the subject property sets the top Value for the
neighborhood, it may be an indication that the property represents an overimprovement. Future purchasers may be less willing to pay for features that are not
common to the area. Therefore, its appeal may be limited at its current Value. Again,
the Client must carefully consider whether the property is appropriate for financing
at the maximum Loan limits.
Likewise, a property at the low end of the markets Value may also be cause for
concern. The Client must consider whether the property in its current form is likely
to continue to be its highest and best use.

(B) Site Analysis


For maximum market appeal, a property site must be of a size, shape and topography
generally acceptable in its market area. It must have utilities, street improvements and other
amenities normally expected in the area.
(1) Land Values
The Client must always address land Values and Loan-to-Value ratios. In areas that
are 25% or more built up, the propertys Land-to-Value ratio must be consistent with
other properties in the area.
In areas that are less than 25% built up, the propertys Land-to-Value ratio must
also be consistent with other properties in the area, but must not exceed 40%.
(2) Maximum Acceptable Acreage
Acceptable acreage limitations are determined by the Loan Program under which
the Loan is submitted. In all cases, the acreage of the Mortgaged Premises must
be supported by comparable market activity of like-sized parcels. Working farms,
ranches, orchards and/or commercial operations of any type are not permitted.
(3) Lots with More than One Contiguous Lot
GMAC-RFC will recognize Value only for the lot upon which the subject property is
located.
(4) Zoning
GMAC-RFC expects the zoning of the Mortgaged Premises area to be residential in
nature.
(a) Legal Non-Conforming Properties
If an appraisal indicates a property is of a legal non-conforming nature, one of
the following must be obtained:
Appraiser must address the issue within the body of the appraisal and
specifically state the property may be rebuilt as is in the event of a loss.
The appraiser must also indicate the source of information
Letter of addendum from the appraiser must address the issue and
specifically state the property may be rebuilt as is in the event of a loss.
The appraiser must also indicate the source of information
Letter from the county stating the property may be rebuilt as is in the
event of a loss
(b) Pending Zone Changes
Recent or pending zoning changes that would have a negative impact on
residential market Values are not acceptable.
(c) Agriculturally Zoned Property
Agriculturally zoned properties may be acceptable when their use is primarily
residential. In addition, they must adhere to the maximum acreage standards
established by the Loan Program. Value given to any auxiliary buildings must
be either disallowed or supported by market sales of properties with similar
amenities.

(5) Mixed Use Properties


GMAC-RFC defines mixed use properties as those that are primarily used as a
residence but are also being used for a small commercial purpose.
(6) Flood Zones
GMAC-RFC does not accept properties that are uninsurable because they are located
in a flood hazard area that is not eligible for the National Flood Insurance Program.
(7) Highest and Best Use
Properties must represent the highest and best use for the site. If current
improvements do not represent the highest and best use of the property, GMAC-RFC
considers the property unacceptable for purchase.
(C) Improvement Analysis
GMAC-RFC does not provide minimum specifications for the materials and construction of
properties. Improvements must conform to the neighborhood in terms of age, design and
materials used for construction. The appraiser must describe any unacceptable or unusual
items that affect marketability; and make appropriate adjustments for these items when
estimating the market Value. If there has been a prior sale of the subject property within
three years, the appraiser must adequately explain and document by contracts, receipts and
photographs of improvements any increase in Value of 15% or more per year or 45% or
more from the original sales price in that three-year period.
The property rating grid summarizes the main factors that are pertinent to the propertys
condition and marketability. Acceptable marketability is reflected by at least average ratings
for construction, quality, condition and appeal. Fair or poor ratings should be rare. If there
are exceptions, the appraiser must satisfactorily explain them.
(1) Design and Appeal
The appraiser must assess the design of the subject property, evaluate whether
similarly designed properties exist within the areas and if they support a reasonable
marketing time.
(2) Uniquely Designed Properties
Dome homes, log cabins and earth-berms are examples of uniquely designed
properties that may require extended marketing time.
(3) Minimum Improvement
GMAC-RFC expects the living area of the subject property to be typical within its
marketing area. The appraisal must contain comparables of similar size to
demonstrate the marketability of the property.
GMAC-RFC will critically analyze condominiums or attached properties with less than
600 square feet and detached dwellings with less than 800 square feet to determine
that their size is typical and readily marketable for the subject area.

(4) Property Conditions


GMAC-RFC expects the Mortgaged Premises to be maintained in at least average
condition. The Client must consider all factors negatively affecting the propertys
condition when assessing the risk of the overall Loan. These factors may include:
(a) Deferred Maintenance
Appraisals on property with deferred maintenance must include a realistic cost
to cure. Deferred maintenance that exceeds 2.5% of the property Value or
affects its basic habitability will require a Satisfactory Completion Certificate
(Form 442).
(b) Debris, Graffiti or Trash
Properties showing an excessive amount of debris, graffiti or trash may require
cleanup. If cleanup is necessary, GMAC-RFC requires a Satisfactory Completion
Certificate (Form 442) with photos.
(c) Infestation
If there is any indication of termites or other infestation, the Client ensures that
the termite issue has been investigated, treated and repaired.
(d) Non-Permitted Additions
Properties with non-permitted additions are acceptable, per program LTV and
guidelines, provided:
Value is not given to these additions AND
A cost-to-cure adjustment is used, either by the appraiser or the reviewer,
to bring the property back to its original utility
OR
Retroactive final permits for these additions allowing Value without a cost to
cure
(e) Roof Damage
The Client must address properties with visible evidence of roof leaks and/or
interior water damage (e.g., ceiling stains) even if the appraisal does not list
them. If any of these conditions exist, the Client must obtain a roof certification,
indicating a remaining useful and physical life of at least three years.
(5) Other Unacceptable Property Conditions
(a) Imminent Threat
Properties defined as imminent threat are those which pose an imminent threat
to the health or safety of the occupant.
(b) Inadequate Foundation
Inadequate foundations are those which do not meet current code requirements.

(c) Inadequate Heating


Properties defined as having inadequate heating are those without permanently
affixed legal heating systems (e.g., the property uses space heaters or fireplaces
to heat the premises).
(d) Inadequate Maintenance or Services
These are properties which lack city or county maintenance services.
(e) Inadequate Utilities
These are properties without water or public electricity connections to the site.
This term also includes improperly vented water heaters.
(f) Boarded up Properties
(g) Cantilevered Properties on Stilts, Posts or Piers
Post and pier foundations are acceptable if common to the area and the property
meets FEMA standards. Client must confirm the property is constructed in
accordance with the most recent version of the FEMA Technical bulletin 9-99
(Design and Construction Guidance for Breakaway Walls Below Elevated Coastal
Buildings in accordance with the National Flood Insurance Program).
(6) Environmental Hazards or Nuisances
The Client must disclose to the appraiser any nuisances or environmental hazards
that it knows or suspects may exist that could adversely affect the Value of the
Mortgaged Premises. The appraiser must note these in the appraisal and
document any other nuisances or environmental hazards.
Prior to considering any Loan for purchase, GMAC-RFC may require an
environmental study of the Mortgaged Premises, if it suspects nuisance or
environmental hazard(s). In this case, the Client must hire a nationally recognized
and reputable environmental engineering firm to perform this written report. The
report must include an analysis and detailed list of clean up costs, if any.
Before approving the Loan for purchase, GMAC-RFC must be convinced that any
known or suspected environmental hazards will not have an adverse effect upon the
appraised Value of the Mortgaged Premises, and the results of the analysis must be
satisfactory to GMAC-RFC.

Client Guide
Appraisal Requirements &
Property Underwriting

(D) Cost Approach


The cost approach is important when appraising proposed, under construction, or
substantially rehabilitated properties as a check for the market data approach. If the
appraiser believes that the cost approach is not applicable (e.g., turn of the century homes)
and if sufficient sales of comparable properties are available in the market, the cost approach
may be omitted with comments explaining this belief.
Whether or not the cost approach is used, the Client must show an Estimated Land Value.
The Client must base this figure on the Value of the land as though it were developed to its
highest and best use consistent with its present zoning classification. The Client must use the
land Value when calculating the propertys LTV ratio.
(1) External Obsolescence
External obsolescence is a devaluation of property Value due to an undesirable or
unnecessary condition outside the property. The appraiser must address the impact
on marketability external obsolescence has upon the subject property. In addition,
the appraiser must provide evidence of comparable market sales that are similarly
affected.
(2) Functional Obsolescence
Functional obsolescence is defined as features of a property that have become
unfashionable or unnecessary in the eyes of potential purchasers. The appraiser
must describe the functional obsolescence, and provide similar comparables to
demonstrate its marketability or provide the cost to cure, if applicable.
(E) Market Data Approach
In its analysis, GMAC-RFC places the greatest weight and reliance on the market data
approach. The Value indicated by this approach must be supported by an analysis of recently
closed sales of at least three comparables located near the Mortgaged Premises.
GMAC-RFC considers the following key items in its review and analysis of the market data
approach:
(1) Proximity of Comparables to the Subject
Comparable properties must be located in the same neighborhood and/or school
district. Comparable sales must be located within one mile of the subject in urban
and suburban areas. If two of three comparable properties used by the appraiser
exceed a distance of five miles from the subject property, the property will be
considered rural. The appraiser must explain the necessity of using any comparable
property located outside the neighborhood.
(2) Comparables Inside and Outside New Projects
The appraiser must demonstrate the marketability of homes built within new
subdivisions or condominium projects through the use of at least one comparable
from inside the subdivision or project and one comparable from a competing
subdivision or project.

Exhibit B-1

Page 4F.13
03/13/06
Client Guide
Appraisal Requirements &
Property Underwriting

(3) Age of Comparable Sales


Comparables must have a recent date of sale, preferably within six months of the
subjects Sale Date. If any of the comparables are over six months old, the
appraiser must comment on the market conditions. If it is necessary to use older
comparables, the appraiser must supplement them with pending sales and/or
current listings in the neighborhood.
(4) Similarity of Comparables to Subject
The comparables used by the appraiser must represent the best market data
available to support the propertys estimated Value. Comparable sales must be as
similar to the subject property as possible in physical attributes, rights of ownership,
zoning and other amenities. When similar to the subject, comparables establish that
it is typical to the area and that the need for adjustments will be minimal.
(5) Adjustments to Comparables
This Section discusses acceptable adjustments to comparables.
(a) Number of Adjustments
The need for numerous adjustments indicates the comparable is not similar to
the subject. This decreases the validity of the comparable.
(b) Dollar Amount of Adjustments
The dollar amount of adjustments must reflect the market reaction to the
difference between the subject and the comparables, not the cost of a particular
difference. The amount must be realistic and consistent among the
comparables.
(c) Adjusted Property Characteristics
Adjustments of certain items (such as quality, location, condition and age) are
more difficult to justify with direct market evidence than other items (such as
garages, fireplaces and finished basements). If a comparable contains an
increasing number of adjustments for difficult items, its accuracy as a Value
indicator decreases.
(d) Time Adjustments
The appraiser must keep to a minimum those adjustments made due to the
difference in time at which the comparable sold compared to the subject
property. If used, these comparables must be supported by documents showing
that they are warranted. For example, positive adjustments for time of sale
must have a correlating rating in the Neighborhood section showing increasing
property Values. Additionally, the appraiser must explain the amount of
appreciation taking place, how long it has been experienced and whether it can
be expected to continue. The appraiser must also describe the conditions
causing it.
(e) Square Footage Adjustments
Adjustments for differences in square footage must be realistic for the
marketplace.

Appraisal Requirements &
Property Underwriting

(f) Total Net Adjustments


Total net adjustments must be minimal if the comparable is truly similar. As a
guideline, net adjustments must not exceed 15% of the sales price of the
comparable.
(g) Bracketing
Rather than using a comparable that will require sizable adjustments in the
same direction, the appraiser must use the bracketing technique during the
selection of comparables. This essentially involves choosing one comparable that
is superior to the subject, one that is inferior and one that is most similar.
Through the adjustment process, the superior comparable adjusts downward to
the subject, the inferior one adjusts upward and the most similar comparable
requires few, if any, adjustments.
(h) Descriptive Language
The appraiser must describe property characteristics using specific, factual and
detailed language. The appraiser must use numerals whenever applicable (e.g.,
for lot size, age of improvements, etc.). Clear descriptions (such as good,
average, fair or poor) must be used to provide consistency between the
property and the comparable.
(i) Sales or Financing Concessions
The subject and all comparables must show the form of financing and as many
of its details as possible (financing Addenda are helpful). Adjustments must be
considered for different types of financing or special marketing concessions,
such as buydowns, furniture, dollar refunds, allowances over a specified number
of months, apportionment of rent payments toward down payments or
decorating and other miscellaneous credits.
The Client must carefully review the appraisal to determine if the appraiser has
adequately demonstrated the effects of such financing or sales concessions on
the propertys Value.
(F) Sales History
GMAC-RFC will review the sales history of the subject and comparables to determine if any
substantial appreciation or property churning has occurred. Large increases in Value must be
supported by market data or documented improvements to the property.
(1) Income Approach
The Value indicated by the income approach, if considered applicable by the
appraiser, must be derived by the gross rent multiplier technique using economic
market rent.
The income approach is required for all two to four unit properties, non-owner
occupied, single-family properties. In general, due to the Value dependence on
rental income for investment or two to four unit properties, GMAC-RFC may require
additional substantiation if the Value for such properties exceeds a reasonable
multiple gross annual economic market rent.

(2) Reconciliation of Valuation Analysis


The Value indicated by each of the applicable approaches, together with the final
reconciliation, must support the appraisers estimate of market Value. This
reconciliation is not an averaging technique; rather, it is a process by which the
appraiser explains the reasonableness of each approach and its applicability to the
final estimate of Value.

F404
Additional Review Considerations
Attached housing and multiple units add another level of complexity when analyzing the
collateral securing the Loan. In addition to the neighborhood, site, improvement and market
analysis already discussed above, the Client must note these additional components when
appraising two to four unit properties, condominiums and PUDs.
(A) Two to Four Unit Properties
Two to four unit properties present another level of property risk. Their marketability is tied
to their level of rent commanded by the property and its compatibility with the
neighborhood.
(1) Neighborhood
The extent to which other small residential income properties are located in the area
will influence the marketability of the subject. Market rents must be stable or
increasing. The appraisers statement of market rents will be assessed by the
comparable rental properties used for comparison.
The appraiser must also consider rent controls and the amount of vacancies when
assessing the propertys appeal. Excessive vacancies may reflect a lack of
marketability and must be considered when making a decision to lend on the
property.
(2) Comparable Rental Data
Market rent is an estimate of the propertys potential to generate income from its
units. Rental data must be supplied from other small income producing properties
that are similar in number of units, room count and living area. Rental comparables
must be readily available and in close proximity to the subject. Going out of the
immediate neighborhood to obtain rental comparables might suggest a lack of rental
activity and therefore, lack of marketability.
(3) Comparable Market Data
GMAC-RFC will analyze the adequacy of the comparable sales by the date of sale,
proximity to the subject and number and amount of adjustments. As in the rental
comps, the appraiser must assess the similarity of the sales comps to the subject in
terms of gross building area, unit count and room count.
(B) Condominiums
(1) Neighborhood
The presence of other condominium projects in the subjects market area indicates
the appeal and marketability of the condominium under review. Marketability of a
single condominium project will be difficult to demonstrate if the neighborhood lacks
competing projects.

(2) Project Improvements


Condominium units are affected by the improvements and amenities of the overall
project. As amenities increase, required maintenance and related association fees
increase.
(a) Number of Stories
The selection of comparable sales must be from projects that are similar in
height to the subjects building.
(b) Condominium Conversions
Projects that were not originally built for use as a condominium, and converted
within the last three years, are considered conversions (i.e., a project originally
built for use as an apartment or hotel). As a result, their market appeal may be
impaired. Conversions are considered Class II projects.
(c) Age of the Project
A projects age, construction status and amount of time the homeowners
association has been in control will determine the warranties that the Client
makes when selling the Loan to GMAC-RFC.
(d) Stage of Completion
The Client must consider whether the amenities are complete. Underfunded
budgets may affect the developers ability to complete all expected
improvements, which may in turn affect the project's future marketability.
(e) Number of Units Sold or Rented
The appraiser must provide information on the number of units sold and rented.
The Client must analyze the percentage of units sold and rented to determine
whether the project meets the warranties published in this Client Guide.
(3) High Rise Condominiums
High rise condominiums (greater than 8 stories) are acceptable in areas with proven
marketability. At least two comparable properties must be from two competing
projects.

(C) Non-Warrantable Condominiums


GMAC-RFC may purchase condominium units located in projects that have not yet met the
pre-sale requirements listed in the Condominium Warranties Sections of this Client Guide.
When originating Loans secured by non-warrantable condominiums, the Client must assess
the projects future marketability. The absorption ratethat is, the number of units sold as
measured against length of time to sell themmust be analyzed to determine that the
project could be expected to meet GMAC-RFCs standards for pre-sale at some reasonable
future date.
Depending on the total number of units available, the absorption rate can indicate the appeal
of the new project. Clients must exercise caution when originating Loans in projects with
extended absorption rates.
(1) Project Analysis
A review of the appraisals project analysis section will indicate the adequacy of the
projects budget and management practices of the homeowners association.
(2) Sales Comparison
GMAC-RFC will analyze the market sales information in a similar manner to a singlefamily dwelling. Recent sales comparables, similarity of living area and number of
adjustments are all considered in analyzing the appropriateness of the comparables.
The Client must provide comparables from competing projects that have similar
amenities, association fees and project height. For high rise condos, the appraiser
must select sales comparables with a similar floor location.
For existing projects, re-sales from within the project are desirable along with at
least one competing project.
When older sales indicate a higher price than more recent sales, a project
devaluation may be taking place.
(D) Leasehold Properties
In addition to meeting Leasehold Loan eligibility requirements, at least one comparable must
be a Leasehold.

(C) Assetwise Findings Reports


(1) The Assetwise Findings Report outlines the parameters of the Loan evaluation. A
Loan must meet the requirements set forth in the Findings Report.
(a) The Loan must be submitted as approved by Assetwise, for example:
A Loan must be delivered in the program it was approved, unless a
message appears on the Assetwise Findings Report specifically allowing the
Loan to be delivered into a different program.
Generally, deviations in the terms of the Loan from how it was approved on
the Assetwise Findings Report are not allowed, such as but not limited to:
Value deviation, increase in Loan amount, increase in interest rate or
increase in DTI. Two variations are allowed:
The interest rate may be lower than shown on the Assetwise approval
The DTI may be lower than shown on the Assetwise approval
If other deviations occur, the Loan must be re-evaluated to obtain a new
approval that matches the terms of the Loan
(b) The Loan must not contain any misrepresentations of data.
(c) The Loan must be in compliance with program mortgage insurance
requirements.
(d) The Loan must conform to Program Criteria, underwriting and Loan eligibility
requirements. Assetwise provides program eligibility grading and slotting.
Clients are responsible to ensure the Loan conforms to GMAC-RFC guidelines.
For Loans that do not qualify for an Assetwise appraisal alternative approval,
Assetwise does not provide a Collateral review. All Loans are subject to the
respective program appraisal and Value requirements.
(e) To the extent the approval has conditions, the approval is contingent upon the
evidence in the file that those conditions have been met.
NOTE: If the restrictions outlined above are not met, the Loan may be manually
reviewed by GMAC-RFC to determine whether or not it can be purchased.

Assetwise Compliance Engine
(A) Overview
In addition to any applicable Terms of Use for the Assetwise Compliance Engine electronic
service, Clients use of the Assetwise Compliance Engine electronic service is subject to the
following provisions.
The Assetwise Compliance Engine is GMAC-RFCs automated evaluation tool for determining
whether a Loan may be ineligible for purchase because the Loan may be:
A loan considered a mortgage under Section 152 of the Home Ownership and Equity
Protection Act of 1994, 15 U.S.C. Section 1602 (aa) and the related regulations and
commentary promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board, including Section 226.32 of
Title 12 of the Code of Federal Regulations, and the official staff commentary to those
regulations.
A loan considered a high-cost, covered, high-risk, predatory or any other similar
designation under certain State or local laws in effect at the time of the closing of the
loan if the law imposes greater restrictions or additional legal liability for residential
mortgage loans with high interest rates, points and/or fees. The Assetwise Compliance
Engine tests some, but not all, of these laws.
A pass does not guarantee that the Loan complies with the law tested or with any other
laws. It is an indication of whether the Loan may be eligible for purchase by GMAC-RFC. By
utilizing the Assetwise Compliance Engine, the Client can input the fees that will be charged
to the Borrower at the time of closing of the Loan and receive a GMAC-RFC determination
within a matter of minutes. Client's use of the Assetwise Compliance Engine can assist the
Client in avoiding rejections.
(B) Client Responsibilities and Exclusions
Clients that use the Assetwise Compliance Engine are still bound by the representations and
warranties as set forth in this Client Guide. By submitting Loans to GMAC-RFC, Clients
represent that all data provided in an Assetwise Compliance Engine approval accurately
reflects the information contained in the Loan file.
Additionally, use of the Assetwise Compliance Engine does not relieve Clients of Loan
eligibility and underwriting requirements set forth in this Client Guide. Use of the Assetwise
Compliance Engine is voluntary on Clients part, and is not a requirement for sale of Loans to
GMAC-RFC.
Certain types of Loans may be ineligible for evaluation through the Assetwise Compliance
Engine. Those types will be indicated as ineligible at the time the Loan is submitted to the
Assetwise Compliance Engine for evaluation.

(C) Delivery Process


One of the potential benefits of using the Assetwise Compliance Engine is a smooth and
streamlined Loan delivery process.
For immediate identification of an Assetwise Compliance Engine Loan, the Assetwise
Compliance Engine approval should be placed immediately underneath any Assetwise
Findings Report for the Loan. If there is no Assetwise Findings Report for the Loan, then place
the Assetwise Compliance Engine approval on top of the Legal Documents on the left side
of the file.

(3) Jumbo A Servicing Fee


The Client must specify a Servicing Fee range at the time a Commitment is
ordered. All Loans delivered as part of a Commitment must have Servicing Fee
within the specified range. The rate and price at which each Loan in the Commitment
is purchased is calculated using the Servicing Fee for such Loan. Any Servicing Fee in
excess of the minimum interest rate in the range set forth in the Commitment will be
excess servicing income to the Servicer.
The minimum Servicing Fee must be at least 0.25%. Any amount in excess of the
minimum Servicing Fee must be in increments of 0.125 of 1%. An amount equal to
or greater than the minimum Servicing Fee must be added to the authorized net
Margin and to the initial net rate and the net life cap. The maximum Servicing Fee
must be no greater than 0.50%.
The One Year-Six Month LIBOR ARM Loan must maintain a constant Servicing Fee at
all times. Therefore, the Servicing Fee spread between the net initial rate and gross
initial rate must equal the spread between the net Margin and the gross Margin,
which must equal the spread between the net life cap and the gross life cap. The
spread on a Loan subject to a minimum interest rate must also equal the spreads
described in the preceding sentence.
(Gross initial rate minus net initial rate) = initial service fee
(Gross Margin minus net Margin) = Margin service fee
(Gross life cap minus net life cap) = life cap service fee
In all instances the Servicing Fee may not exceed 0.50%.
The Client must note these requirements when setting gross Margins, gross life caps
and minimum interest rates on this product.

or greater than the minimum Servicing Fee must be added to the authorized net
Margin and to the initial net rate and the net life cap. The maximum Servicing Fee
must be no greater than 0.50%.
The Three-One Treasury ARM Loan must maintain a constant Servicing Fee at all
times. Therefore, the Servicing Fee spread between the net initial rate and gross
initial rate must equal the spread between the net Margin and the gross Margin,
which must equal the spread between the net life cap and the gross life cap. The
spread on a Loan subject to a minimum interest rate must also equal the spreads
described in the preceding sentence.
(Gross initial rate minus net initial rate) = initial service fee
(Gross Margin minus net Margin) = Margin service fee
(Gross life cap minus net life cap) = life cap service fee
In all instances the Servicing Fee may not exceed 0.50%.
The Client must note these requirements when setting gross Margins, gross life caps
and minimum interest rates on this product.

One Month ARMLIBOR, MTA, COFI


The Payment Option Program offers Adjustable Rate Mortgage products and monthly payment amount options. A
balloon feature and terms to 40 years are available.
This program offers a choice of three ARM indices at origination: LIBOR, MTA and COFI. After the initial payment
the Borrower may select from a choice of monthly payment options, a Minimum Payment or one of three additional
payment options.

Payment Option Program


Term

Original term of 30 or 40 years. Loans with a balloon feature have an original term of 30
years with payments based on 40 year amortization.
Commitments for seasoned Loans must be negotiated on an individual basis.

Amortization

Amortized over the term of the Loan. If an interest rate change occurs, the outstanding
principal balance will be re-amortized over the remaining term of the Loan.
Loans with a balloon feature are amortized over 40 years; a balloon payment of the
remaining principal balance and any interest and applicable fees is due at the end of 30
years.

Deferred
Interest

Loans under this program have the potential for negative amortization or deferred
interest.
The maximum deferred interest (negative amortization) allowed for this program is
115%. State of New York is limited to a maximum of 110%.

Conversion
Option

A conversion option is not permitted.


Four monthly payment options are available:
(1)Minimum Payment (Refer to Minimum Payment below)
(2)Interest Only Payment (Interest owed)
(3)Amortized Payment (P&I payment based on the amortization term). If a balloon
feature is chosen the Loan will mature before the full amortization term.
(4)15-year Payment (P&I payment based on a 15 year term)

Payment Options

Payment options are available when the payment amounts of the options are greater than
the required Minimum Payment.

Initial Payment

The Minimum Payment based on the Note Rate (introductory rate).

Minimum
Payment

The lowest monthly payment available (smallest amount of interest and, if applicable,
principal). The initial Minimum Payment is the principal and interest that would fully
amortize the Loan in 30 years at the start rate. Thereafter the Minimum Payment is recalculated annually and is subject to a payment cap of 7.5% increase (from the previous
minimum payment), life interest rate cap, and maximum negative amortization allowed.
The actual Loan interest rate may change monthly.
A Minimum Payment may not pay all the interest accrued on the Loan for the previous
month. The interest not paid is called deferred interest or negative amortization and is
added to the total principal the Borrower owes monthly.

Payment
Adjustment
Dates and Caps

The first Minimum Payment adjustment date occurs when the 13th monthly payment is
due and every 12 months thereafter. The new Minimum Payment is a fully amortizing
amount based on the current interest rate, outstanding principal balance, and remaining
term; subject to the payment cap.
The Minimum Monthly Payment is recalculated every 12 months and is subject to a
payment amount cap the 7.5%. The mortgage is recast every five years without
consideration of the payment cap.

Recast

The Loan is re-amortized every fifth year based on the remaining term at the current
interest rate and the unpaid balance. This amount becomes the new Minimum Payment
until the next scheduled Payment Change Date. At time of Recast the payment cap of
7.5% does not apply.
The Loan may also be recast immediately if the unpaid principal balance reaches or
exceeds 115% (110% in New York State) of the original Loan amount.

year.
Self-employed with Fast Income
Documentation

return with all supporting schedules
(no business tax returns, business
income statement or P&L required).

Stated Income Documentation

No Ratio Documentation

The Borrower must report his or her


income on the application (Fannie
Mae Form 1003). Due to the lack of
income verification, GMAC-RFC
places a stronger emphasis on the
Borrower's credit performance. The
Debt-to-Income Ratios must be
reported and used for qualification.

The Borrower is not required to


disclose his/her income. Therefore,
the program has no qualifying ratio
standards. However, if income is
stated, there must be a reasonable
expectation of the Borrower's ability
to repay the debt.

Income and employment is stated


on the Loan application. Income
need not be verified but verification
that Borrower is employed is
required.

When the Borrower's Credit Score


is 720 or above, a No Ratio
standard for income/employment
verification may be used. Income
should not be stated on the Loan
application. Employment or source
of income must be stated. A verbal
verification of employment is
required.

For Salaried Borrower's the verbal


verification of employment,
completed by the Client, must
confirm: Borrower's date of
employment; Borrower's
employment status and job title;
name, phone number and title of
verifier; and name and title of
person making the call.
For Self-employed Borrowers, a
business license and confirmation of
the existence of the business
through a business directory listing
is required. If a license is not
required for the business a signed
confirmation of business is required
by Borrower's accountant or CPA.

No tax returns or other written


verification of income of any kind
are required. However, the
application must state specific
source(s) of income (e.g. employer
name, social security, ABC
Mortgage pension, etc.) The
continuity of non-employment
income sources such as fixed
income, interest, trust or real estate
must have a two year history of
receipt.

(1) Loan Delivery Additional Requirements


Loans under this program, closed with 1-month introductory rate, must meet the
following delivery requirements:
Loans must be received by GMAC-RFC within 10 calendar days of the Loans
closing date
Crediting of mortgage interest is not allowed. A minimum of 30 days from the
Loans Funding Date to the first payment date is required
For example, if the Loan is closed with a Funding Date of May 7, 2005 and
interest is advanced forward to June 1, thereby making the first payment
date and the first interest rate change date July 1, 2005. This treatment
results in the advance of mortgage interest and is acceptable.
As an unacceptable example, a Loan closed with a Funding Date of May 7,
2005 and interest credited back to May 1, 2005, making the first payment
date and the first interest rate change date June 1, 2005. This treatment
results in the crediting of mortgage interest and is not acceptable.
(2) Escrow for Postponed Improvements
Property must be complete at time of purchase. GMAC-RFC will not purchase Loans
closed with postponed improvements for weather or repair.
(3) Additional Delivery Documentation
When a prior approval Loan is submitted to GMAC-RFC for purchase a copy of the
Rate Lock Agreement form must be in the file.
(T) Servicing
Commitments are available on a servicing released basis only. For guidelines, see Chapter
8, Servicing Released.

Major Adverse
Credit

See Major

Section in this
Chapter.

For the AlterNet Program, credit grade is determined by mortgage or rental payment history. While Credit Score,
bankruptcy, foreclosure and Major Adverse Credit account history have rules that must be applied, only
mortgage and rental history will determine credit grade.

For Fixed Rate Mortgages, Borrowers qualify at the Note rate.

ARM Loans will be qualified at the maximum interest rate, which could be in effect at the beginning of the second
year.

50.01% to 55% DTI allowed for credit grades A4 to C with $1,500 Residual Income or 2 months PITI reserves.
For the 40 Year Recast and 40/30 Balloon Features, DTI cannot exceed 50%

(3) Credit Evaluation


The Borrowers credit grade is based on housing payment history (mortgage or
rental).
(4) Housing Payment History
Housing Payment History must be verified for the previous 12 months. For credit
grade A4, mortgage payment history reported through a credit repository may not
have been 30 days or more past due during the 12 months preceding application.
Borrowers with 0x30 housing history not reported through a credit repository or less
than 12 months mortgage history will be graded A5. Any Loan submitted that was
30 days or more delinquent within the preceding 12 months will receive at most an
Ax credit grade.
(a) Mortgage Payment History
Verification of mortgage payment history must include the payment due the
month prior to the Note date. To meet this requirement, the Client may provide
updates to the acceptable sources of notification listed on the Establishing
Housing Payment History table or a processors certification that includes:
Date of verification
Mortgage history meets grading requirements
Name, phone number and title of verifier
Name and title of person making the call

(c) Borrowers with a valid Credit Score less than 500
Borrowers with a valid Credit Score less than 500 will not be considered for the
AlterNet Program.
(5) Major Adverse Credit
Collection accounts, charge-off accounts, judgments, liens, delinquent property
taxes, repossessions, garnishments and accounts currently 90 days or more
delinquent are considered to be Major Adverse Credit.
Medical accounts will not be required to be paid. Aggregate totals exceeding the
CLTV limits for the Loan transaction will be reviewed on a case by case basis
All State, IRS and property tax liens regardless of seasoning are required to be
paid whether or not they currently affect title. No payment plans or subordination
allowed. Property tax liens on other properties will be considered Major Adverse
Credit. Federal tax liens older than ten years are not required to be paid unless the
title company requires payoff
Any current 90-day or more delinquent account must be brought current before or
at closing
Adverse accounts over 24 months old that do not affect title will not be considered
in grade determination and are not required to be paid
All non-medical adverse credit less than 24 months seasoned, must be paid off if it
exceeds amounts listed below:
Owner Occupied
For LTVs <= 90%, $5,000 may be left open provided it does not affect title
For LTVs >90%, $1,500 may be left open provided it does not affect title
Non-owner Occupied
$1,500 may be left open provided it does not affect title
(6) Consumer Credit Counseling
Consumer credit counseling will not affect the credit grade if the plan has been paid
as agreed and paid off prior to or at closing. If the consumer credit counseling has
been dismissed or withdrawn the full original payment of all debts will be included in
the DTI. Mortgage accounts included in consumer credit counseling will be treated as
a forebearance. If Delinquent in the most recent 12 months, the consumer credit
counseling will be treated as an open Chapter 13 for grading purposes.

(9) Down Payment


For all documentation types, the minimum down payment of 5% of Value must be
paid from the Borrowers own cash. The balance must be paid from cash, other
equity, gift funds or Secondary Financing. A down payment of 100% gift funds is
allowed at LTVs less than or equal to 80% when no Secondary Financing exists. In
this instance, closing costs may also be in the form of a gift.
(10) Cash to Close and Reserves
Reserves, when required, must come from Borrowers own cash.
Although cash to close and reserves must be sourced and verified, seasoning of
funds is not required. For verification of cash to close and reserves, one of the
following is required:
Most current bank statement
Fannie Mae Verification of Deposit (VOD) (Fannie Mae Form 1006)
Certified funds check, drawn on the Borrowers bank account. The account
number must be listed on the 1003 and that account is the source of the funds
to close. These funds must have been available prior to or as of the date of
closing (available for cash to close only, reserves not eligible for this
verification).
If the verification of cash to close reveals a significant recent increase in the average
balance of an existing account, recent large deposits or a newly-opened account with
a significant balance, the Borrower must explain the increase and the Client must
document this explanation.
(I) Secondary Financing
Secondary Financing or subordinate financing for owner occupied properties, including
home equity lines of credit are allowed. Seller provided financing is not permitted.
(J) Sales Concessions
Maximum allowable sales concessions (non-recurring):
6% for owner-occupied
3% for non-owner occupied
For underwriting purposes, the purchase price of the Mortgaged Premises must be reduced

Performance Loan
Program

Performance Loan Program
F600
Performance Program
The Performance Program is an adjustable rate mortgage program designed for the nonconforming credit Borrower who, after a demonstrated payment history meeting the
requirements of the program, will qualify for a one time opportunity to improve the interest
rate over the term of the Loan without the requirement of refinancing.
The eligible ARM Loan will specifically provide for a prescheduled qualifying period and an
adjustment date (Change Date) for the Borrower to be considered for eligibility for a
permanent gross Margin reduction. Qualification for a permanent decrease in Margin would
require all payments within 12 months prior to the Change Date be received within 30 days
of the due date and within 60 days of the due date for the 13 to 24 month prior to the
Change Date.
If the Borrower fails to meet the timely payment criteria for this program at the first Change
Date, the Borrower will not be eligible for the permanent Margin adjustment. The Margin
stated on the Note would then prevail for the term of the Loan.
In addition to the underwriting criteria outlined in the AlterNet Program (Ax through C)
Eligibility Standards Section of this Client Guide, the following features are specific to this
Performance Loan Program.

F601
Eligibility Standards
(A) Product Types
Eligible product types are:
Two Year-Six Month LIBOR ARM
Three Year-Six Month LIBOR ARM
See Chapter 5, Loan Products, for criteria specific to the above referenced GMAC-RFC
eligible ARM Loans.

Program

(B) Underwriting
(1) Credit Grades
All Performance Loans must meet credit grades Ax, Am, B, or C.
(2) Payment History
The Loan must not have been 30 days or more past due at any time in the 12
months prior to the first Change Date specified on the Note
The Loan must not have been 60 days or more past due at any time during the 13
to 24 months prior to the change Date specified on the Note
(C) Margin Adjustments
If the Borrower meets the criteria outlined under Payment History, there will be one
permanent Margin adjustment at either 24 months or 36 months based on the parameters
of the Product Type under which the Loan was originated. The Margin reduction amount will
differ based on the Borrowers credit grade at the time of the original Loan. Maximum Margin
reductions are based on credit grades as follows:
Ax.5%
Am1.0%
B1.5%
C2.0%
An example of the Margin adjustment for the Ax grade, assuming the Borrowers payment
history has been 0x30 for 12 months and 0x60 for the 24 months prior to the first
adjustment date, is as follows:
Gross Margin as indicated on Note4.0%
Margin adjustment.501
New gross Margin to Borrower3.5%
The minimum Margin may never be decreased to less than 2.5%.

Adjustment based on credit grade.

(D) Registration

(E) Servicing
Clients must sell Performance Loans to GMAC-RFC on a servicing released basis. The price
paid by GMAC-RFC for the servicing is included in the Loan price. Servicing will be purchased
on an Early Scheduled Transfer basis. RFC will review and purchase the Servicing Rights
simultaneously with the Loan. The Sale Date for the Servicing Rights, therefore, will be
the Funding Date of the Loan.
All payments due from the Borrower beginning the first of the month following the Sale Date
(the Effective Date of Transfer) are to be paid to the Designated Servicer. Servicing
sold to RFC will be conducted by such Servicer as GMAC-RFC may designate from time to
time. Designated Servicer information including address, telephone and endorsement
information is contained in the Designated Servicer Directory (GMAC-RFC Exhibit 1800).
For servicing released guidelines, see Chapter 8, Servicing Released.
(F) Required Additional Legal Documentation
In addition to the documents required in Chapter 9, Commitment, Prior Approval, Delivery
and Funding, a specific Performance Loan Rider is required. By executing two original riders,
the original Note and the Security Instrument will be amended. One original rider must be
attached to the Note when forwarded to GMAC-RFC. The other original rider must be
attached to the Security Instrument prior to recording at the appropriate county recording
office. (GMAC-RFC Form 16F00 with instructions for completion of the Rider on the reverse
side.)

(B) Goal Line Calculation of Payment


For qualification purposes, the monthly housing payment for a Home Equity line of credit
originated as a Goal Line Home Equity line of credit is calculated using the Interest Only payment
based on the fully indexed rate (prime + Margin) and the total Loan amount.
(C) Goal Line Borrower Servicing Information
(1) Borrower Statements/Payment Dates
The payment date will be disclosed in the monthly statement mailed directly to the
Borrower by the Designated Servicer. The Borrower will receive the monthly
statement at least 15 days prior to their first payment due date.
Goal Line with Draw Period and Repayment Period:
On each payment date the Borrower is required to pay a minimum monthly
payment amount equal to the greater of: (a) 1% of the outstanding principal
balance on the last day of the billing cycle; (b) $100; or (c) the amount of accrued
interest. If no outstanding principal balance exists on the last day of the billing
cycle, no payment will be required. If there is no outstanding principal balance on
the last day of the billing cycle, no payment will be required. If there is an
outstanding balance at the end of the Draw Period, the balance will be amortized to
include principal and interest over the Repayment Period.
Goal Line with Interest Only Draw Period and Repayment period:
On each payment date for the first ten years, the Borrower is required to pay the
amount of interest accrued from the last billing cycle. If there is no outstanding
principal balance on the last day of the billing cycle, no payment will be required. If
there is an outstanding balance at the end of the Draw Period, the balance will be
amortized to include principal and interest over the Repayment Period.
Goal Line with a 15 year balloon and Interest Only payments:
On each payment date the Borrower is required to pay the amount of interest
accrued from the last billing cycle. If no outstanding principal balance exists on the
last day of the billing cycle, no payment will be required. The final payment will be
the entire principal balance and accrued interest in a single balloon payment.
(2) Checks
Borrower will receive checks with which to access the Home Equity Line of Credit
generally within ten days of the GMAC-RFC Purchase Date.
The Borrower will not receive checks until the Loan is funded by GMAC-RFC. Therefore,
any late delivery or incomplete documentation will cause the Borrower to experience
delays in accessing the Home Equity Line of Credit.

will be serviced in accordance to Designated Servicer Directory (GMAC-RFC Exhibit 1801 and
Exhibit 1805).

amount of the payment and the payment due date. The date of the first payment must be more
than 30 days, but less than 60 days from the date of the Note. Timely receipt of the Loan

the Loan.

prepaid interest from the Funding Amount. Clients may contact GMAC-RFC if they would prefer
to originate simple interest Loans.

(T) Servicing
125 CLTV Loans must be sold on a servicing released basis. The Loans are serviced by the
Servicer indicated on the Designated Servicer Directory (GMAC-RFC Exhibit 1801).
The Borrower will receive a statement from the Designated Servicer indicating the monthly
amount of the payment and the payment due date. The date of the first payment must be more
than 30 days, but cannot be more than 60 days from the date of the Note. Timely receipt of the
Loan package along with the funding of the Loan will ensure that the Borrowers account is set
up prior to the first payment due date.
Transfer of Servicing of the Borrowers account occurs immediately after the rescission period
expires. The Client must not accept payments on the account. If the Borrower wants to make a
payment before receipt of the first statement they must send the payment to the Designated
Servicer and reference their name, address and social security number. If the Client does receive
a payment from the Borrower, the payment must be forwarded immediately to the Designated
Servicer. GMAC-RFC does not purchase 125 CLTV Loans on an amortized balance, but on the
original Loan amount. Failure to remit payments received by the Borrower to the Designated
Servicer may result in unnecessary remittance and reconciling issues to the Borrower.
GMAC-RFC prefers payment on the 1st and the 15th of the month. As an exception, GMAC-RFC
will accept a modification of the first payment date in cases where disbursement is delayed and
as a result, the first payment date indicated on the Note is less than 30 days from the actual
date of disbursement.
To increase the Borrowers understanding and assure that servicing information is complete and
accurate, GMAC-RFC will review all Loans with a payment modification to determine:
The Borrower is made aware of a potential change in first payment date at closing
The actual disbursement date
The Borrower received specific information indicating the reason for a change in their first
payment date (delayed disbursement) and referencing the new payment date and
maturity date. See GMAC-RFC Form 16H02
Note: Final Truth In Lending must reflect changes in disbursement date (if applicable)
(U) Post-Purchase Servicing Issues
The Borrower may contact the Designated Servicer (GMAC-RFC Exhibit 1801) directly for
any of the following:
Subordination requests (see required Document Checklist GMAC-RFC Form 16G06)
Payment information
Request checks and/or credit cards
Payoff figures or Loan satisfaction

under all applicable laws, the Client must notify GMAC-RFC immediately.
The Client is authorized to use the required 125 CLTV Loan Security Agreement or Note and
Security Instrument specified by Clients document provider.
(X) Interest Rate Information
Required yields for 125 CLTV Loans are provided on the Lender Portal at
GMACResidentialFunding.com. Yields will be posted and are based on the credit grades
established in this 125 CLTV Program Chapter.
The Client is required to notify GMAC-RFC if the interest calculation is simple or actuarial. If
actuarial, payments will be calculated using the 30/360 actuarial method. Using the 30/365
method of calculating interest is not acceptable. The Client is required to collect prepaid interest,
if applicable. GMAC-RFC will net any prepaid interest from the Funding Amount.
(Y) Documentation

purchases. This report will be sent by FAX to the Client upon purchase of a 125 CLTV
Loan.
(2) Forfeiture of Fees
GMAC-RFC may refuse to pay fees to the Client for any 125 CLTV Loan that represents
the refinance of a 125 CLTV Loan previously sold to GMAC-RFC by the Client and is in
violation of the representation regarding Non-Solicitation set forth in this Chapter of this
Client Guide.
If any payoff or liquidation occurs on the Loan within 90 days from the Purchase Date,
the Client will be required to repay to GMAC-RFC any fees and/or purchase premiums
paid for the Loan regardless of whether a new Loan is being originated by the existing
Client or a different lender.

The term 125 CLTV Program Criteria, as used below, shall mean GMAC-RFCs 125 CLTV Program
requirements as described in the Underwriting, Loan Eligibility, and 125 CLTV Chapters of this
Client Guide.
If GMAC-RFC, in the exercise of its sole discretion, elects to purchase a 125 CLTV Loan having
125 CLTV Loan Program Criteria violations, or if, after the purchase of any 125 CLTV Loan, it is
discovered that there was a breach by the Client of the representation that such 125 CLTV Loan
met all of the 125 CLTV Program Criteria, the Client will not be required to repurchase such 125
CLTV Loan if:
All of the documentation contained in the Loan file or that 125 CLTV Loan is true, complete
and accurate in all material respects
The Borrower has made the first 12 required payments of principal and interest completely
and in a timely manner (i.e., not more than 29 days past due)
Notwithstanding the foregoing, all other rights and remedies set forth in this Client Guide
(except as specifically modified in this 125 CLTV Chapter) that may be exercised by GMAC-RFC
upon the occurrence of an Event of Client Default, including, without limitation, the
indemnification remedy set forth in this Client Guide, shall apply to 125 CLTV Loans.

Non-Standard Program
GMAC-RFCs Negotiated Conduit Asset (NCA) Program is a non-standard mortgage program
designed to purchase Loans that do not comply with one or more of the criteria stated in the
standard Loan Program Chapters of this Client Guide. Loans purchased under an NCA
Commitment must meet the standards as published in Chapter 3, Loan Eligibility, and Chapter
4, Underwriting, and other Chapters of this Client Guide.
GMAC-RFC purchases Loans at its sole discretion under the NCA Program. NCA Commitments
are negotiated on an individual or bulk basis.
Except for the criteria that caused the Loan to fall out of the standard Loan Program, the Loan
must comply with the credit standards and all other guidelines of that Loan Program. For
example, a Loan underwritten to Jumbo A guidelines that does not comply with the Debt-toIncome Ratio may be purchased under an NCA Jumbo A Commitment. All other Jumbo A
Program underwriting standards and criteria must be met.

J601
Ineligible Loans
Although GMAC-RFC will consider Loans that do not comply with one of the standard Loan
Programs, the following is a list of criteria that GMAC-RFC will not consider as eligible for
purchase:
Stated income, Stated Income/Stated Asset, No Ratio, and No Income/No Asset Loans for
wage earners if the Credit Score is below 600
Section 32 Loans
Evidence of Fraud
Manufactured Homes
Working Farms and Ranches
Loans made to corporate Borrowers, churches, partnerships, and estates
Loans where the Borrower was delinquent on their first payment
Balloons with less than a 5 year term
Prepayment penalties more than 5 years
Single premium insurance, or any life insurance policy attached to the Loan
Commercial properties, multifamily (more than 4 units)
Previous mortgage history more than or equal to 1 x 120 (last 12 months)

Simultaneous first and second mortgage transactions must follow the most restrictive grading policy of the two Loan Programs.

For the AlterNet Program, credit grade is determined by mortgage or rental payment history. While Credit Score, bankruptcy, foreclosure and major adverse account history
have rules that must be applied, only mortgage and rental history will determine credit grade.
Chapter 7 and 13 measured by discharge or dismissal date, except for AlterNet, Chapter 13 measured by filing date. Chapter 13 must be paid off prior to or at closing. Credit
grades A4 to C must be paid as agreed for past 12 months.
Adverse accounts over 24 months old that do not affect title will not be considered in grade determination and are not required to be paid.

Servicing Released
800
Servicing Released
GMAC-RFCs Servicing Released program provides an outlet for the purchase of servicing
investment-quality Loans that meet GMAC-RFCs program requirements. Servicing Rights
can be sold to GMAC-RFC on a Loan-by-Loan basis either when the Loan is purchased
(Simultaneous Sale of Servicing) or any time after purchase (Post Purchase Sale of
Servicing).
In addition, Servicing Rights can be sold to GMAC-RFC on a negotiated bulk basis as outlined
in the Bulk Servicing Acquisitions Section of this Client Guide.
For information on Home Equity Servicing Transfers, see Chapter 6G, 1st Lien Line of Credit
and Chapter 6H, Home Equity Programs.

801
Program Overview
For all Simultaneous Sales of Servicing, GMAC-RFC will review and purchase the Servicing
Package simultaneously with the Loan package. The Sale Date, therefore, will be the
Loans Funding Date.
Under the Simultaneous Sale of Servicing option, GMAC-RFC will purchase servicing released
Loans on a projected Schedule of Principal Balance. The Effective Date of Transfer will be
the first day of the second month following the Sale Date. The Client will collect any
payment(s) due from the Borrower the first month following the Sale Date. Beginning with
the second month, the Designated Servicer will collect all payments due from the
Borrower. It is the Clients responsibility to continue servicing a Loan and collecting any
payment(s) due up to the Effective Date of Transfer.
In addition, GMAC-RFC offers an Early Scheduled Transfer option. Under this option,
GMAC-RFC will purchase servicing released Loans on a Scheduled Principal Balance. The
Effective Date of Transfer will be the first of the month following the Sale Date. The individual
Product Descriptions requirements will determine the availability of the Early Purchase of
Servicing option. Please see Chapter 6, Loan Programs, for specific requirements.
For all Post Purchase Sales of Servicing, GMAC-RFC will transfer servicing on a Scheduled
Principal Balance. All payments due from the Borrower beginning with the first day of the
month following the Sale Date are to be paid to the Designated Servicer.

The Loan is in the process of a payoff (i.e., the Servicer has not issued a payoff
statement to the Borrower)
The Loan is in the process of an assumption
The Loan is subject to any lien, security interest or other encumbrance
The Loan is in bankruptcy (i.e., the Borrower is not the debtor in a pending
bankruptcy)
30 or more days delinquent

807
Record Maintenance
The Client must maintain complete records of all Loans that GMAC-RFC has purchased for

Client Representations and Warranties; Events of Servicer Default Prior to Transfer
GMAC-RFC relies upon the accuracy and truth of the Clients warranties and representations
and upon its compliance with the agreements, requirements, terms and conditions set forth
in this Client Guide.
The Client remains responsible to GMAC-RFC, with respect to any Loan, for any and all
events of Servicer default that occurred up to and including the Effective Date of
Transfer.
The Client cannot pledge any of its rights to service Loans sold to GMAC-RFC, pursuant to the
Sale or Transfer of Servicing Section, and GMAC-RFC may require a search of the appropriate
Uniform Commercial Code records. This search will be at the Clients expense in connection
with sale of servicing transactions. If liens on such Servicing Rights are on record, they
must be released.

811
Specific Warranties and Covenants
In addition to the covenants, representations and warranties specified in the Client contract
and this Client Guide, the Client ensures the following:
The covenants, representations and warranties listed below are made as of each Sale Date
and Effective Date of Transfer, unless the specific representation or warranty states
differently. Making them does not release the Client from its obligations with respect to the
representations, warranties and covenants listed in other Sections of this Client Guide.
(A) Eligible Servicing Packages
The Client ensures that each of the Servicing Packages delivered and sold to GMAC-RFC
meets the terms and criteria set forth in this Servicing Released Chapter.
(B) Non-Solicitation
With respect to any Loan, the Servicing Rights of which are sold to GMAC-RFC, Client
ensures the Client has not solicited, sold the customer list, or provided information to
another party for the purpose of solicitation. The Client also agrees not to solicit, sell the
customer list or provide information to another party for the purpose of soliciting any
financial services or products including the refinance of any servicing released Loan or
modification of Loans, second mortgages, equity Loans or insurance products. Solicit is
defined as a direct offer or request for refinance or financial service products on such
servicing released Loan. This definition does not include general solicitations, advertisements
or promotions directed to the general public at large.
(C) Documents
The Client ensures that all documents required under this Servicing Released Chapter have
been completed, executed and delivered in the form and manner specified. In addition, the
Client must submit all required documents, materials and other information to GMAC-RFC in
a complete, accurate and timely fashion.

(D) Flood Certification


The Client ensures that any Loan, the Servicing Rights of which are sold to GMAC-RFC, has
been issued a flood zone determination certificate. The certificate must indicate whether the
dwelling on the subject property lies within a special flood hazard area (SFHA) as identified
by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) through the National Flood Insurance
Program (NFIP). The flood zone, flood map number and map date must also be stated.
(E) Life-of-Loan Contract for Continual Flood Zone Determination
In addition to the flood zone determination certificate referenced above, the Client must
obtain a transferable life-of-loan flood zone determination contract from an approved Fannie
Mae or Freddie Mac vendor. This insures that the flood zone determination is effective
throughout the life of the Loan. In the event the Client does not provide a valid transferable
life-of-loan flood zone determination contract, GMAC-RFC will order such a contract. GMACRFC will charge the Client all costs associated with securing the contract. If the Client sets up
the life-of-loan contract, the Client is responsible to notify all flood zone determination
carriers of the change in Servicer prior to the Effective Date of Transfer. All notices must be
prepared as specified in the Designated Servicer Directory (GMAC-RFC Exhibit 1800,
Exhibit 1801 or Exhibit 1805).
(F) Initial Escrow Account Disclosure Statement
The Client agrees that for any Loan, the Servicing Rights of which are sold to GMAC-RFC,
the Loan has been closed in accordance with the HUD Final Escrow Rule using the aggregate
escrow analysis method. The Client will complete and deliver an initial escrow account
disclosure statement that matches the HUD-1 transaction.
(G) Notification
The Client will promptly notify GMAC-RFC of any changes that may affect the Loan's
servicing. In addition, the Client will promptly forward any pertinent documentation to
GMAC-RFC or the Designated Servicer, if requested. Any materials forwarded must
accurately reference the GMAC-RFC Loan number.
(H) Notification of Junior Lienholder
The Client agrees to immediately notify GMAC-RFC and its Designated Servicer of any junior
lienholder (the name and address) to any Loan, the Servicing Rights of which are sold to
GMAC-RFC. If State statute requires the junior lienholder to pay a fee to the senior
lienholder, and when the Client receives such payment, the Client will forward the fee
immediately to GMAC-RFCs Designated Servicer. The Client must see the Designated
Servicer Directory (GMAC-RFC Exhibit 1800) when preparing this notification.
(I) Insurance Policies; Change of Servicer
The Client agrees that it will notify all insurance carriers of the change in Servicer prior to
the Effective Date of Transfer, and that all insurance policies required to be endorsed are
endorsed as the Designated Servicer Directory (GMAC-RFC Exhibit 1800, Exhibit 1801 or
Exhibit 1805) specifies. This includes, but is not limited to, hazard, flood, mortgage,
earthquake, windstorm, condominium and PUD insurance carriers.
(J) Payment of Insurance
The Client must pay all insurance premiums for Loans with escrow accounts that will become
due within 30 days after the Effective Date of Transfer. This includes, but is not limited to,
hazard, flood, mortgage, earthquake, windstorm, condominium and PUD insurance.

(K) Tax Service Contracts; Change of Servicer


For any Simultaneous Sale of Servicing, GMAC-RFC will set up a tax service contract. The
Client agrees to pay for all costs associated with securing the new contract. The tax service
fee is $60.00 for each Loan with an additional charge of $10.00 added to the base fee for
every $100,000 or portion thereof that is more than $499,999.
For any Post Purchase Sale of Servicing, the Client must perform either of the following:
Obtain a transferable tax contract with an acceptable tax service

disbursing on the Loan.
A Commitment Confirmation is GMAC-RFCs written communication to the Client
confirming that GMAC-RFC has accepted Clients Commitment and additional terms and
conditions applicable to GMAC-RFCs potential purchase of the Loan under such Commitment,
as described in the Commitment Confirmation Section of this Chapter. If Client
subsequently delivers an otherwise eligible Loan within the Commitment Period which fully
and strictly conforms to the Loan described in the Commitment, GMAC-RFC shall receive and
review the Loan for potential purchase under the pricing and terms described in the
Commitment Confirmation.
Additional terms applicable to all Commitments:
Each lien position of a property may have no more than one Commitment outstanding
at any one time with GMAC-RFC.
Client may not assign or transfer a Commitment, in whole or in part, without the prior
express written consent of GMAC-RFC.
Note that the term Commitment is not to be confused with other agreements or terminology
which may be used between Client and GMAC-RFC, such as a master Commitment or a
forward Commitment.

Commitment Confirmation
After Client has communicated its request to enter into a Commitment, the request is nonrevocable by Client until GMAC-RFC either accepts or rejects the request. Upon receipt of a
request, GMAC-RFC will thereafter determine at its sole discretion if it will accept or reject
the request, the means it will use to communicate its response, and if applicable the terms of
the Commitment including the price and the Commitment Period. GMAC-RFC is not
deemed to have accepted a request to enter into a Commitment until GMAC-RFC has sent its
written communication of a Commitment Confirmation to Client.
Although GMAC-RFC will use commercially reasonable means to receive requests and send
its responses for Commitments, GMAC-RFC is not responsible for any failures of Client to
deliver or receive any such communications, and Client acknowledges that GMAC-RFC will act
in reliance of a Commitment that it has accepted even if Client does not receive the
Commitment Confirmation.
Further, Client acknowledges that prices in a Commitment Confirmation will be those
applicable at the time GMAC-RFC responds to the request for Commitment, and that GMACRFC is not responsible for market changes or other repricing events that may have occurred
between the time of Clients request and GMAC-RFCs response. Clients that wish to mitigate
the risk of market-shifting should use time-sensitive means of communication (such as voice
or the Assetlock Electronic Tool) rather than means without immediate feedback (such as
fax).
Further, Client acknowledges that if GMAC-RFC accepts a Commitment by voice (such as by
telephone), the Commitment will remain subject to all terms and conditions shown in a
subsequently delivered Commitment Confirmation.
Each Commitment Confirmation will provide GMAC-RFCs applicable Commitment number,
which Client must include in all future communications regarding such Commitment.

A903
Commitment Periods
The Commitment Period for any Commitment is the earlier of:
The expiration date set forth in the Commitment Confirmation; or
For Best Efforts Delivery Commitments, 10 calendar days after the projected
closing date stated in the Commitment (inclusive of the closing date); or
For a 1st Lien Line of Credit or a Goal Line of Credit, 30 calendar days from the closing
date of the Home Equity Line Security Agreement or Note.
Commitment Periods end at the end of Registration Hours on the last date calculated
above. If the expiration date falls on a Saturday, Sunday or holiday, the Commitment Period
will expire at the end of Registration Hours on the next Business Day.
Extensions of a Commitment Period may be granted at GMAC-RFCs sole discretion, and shall
be subject to Loan repricing at GMAC-RFCs sole discretion.

Failure to Deliver or Over-Deliver
(A) Mandatory Delivery Commitments
Unless otherwise stated by the GMAC-RFC Trading Desk, Client must deliver eligible Loans
under a Mandatory Delivery Commitment, conforming with the applicable Loan Program
described therein, with an aggregate outstanding principal balance that is within the
following allowances:
5% (plus or minus) of the Commitment amount for a flow Commitment of less than
$2 million, or
$100,000 (plus or minus) of the Commitment amount for a flow Commitment of $2
million or more, or
as may be negotiated by the GMAC-RFC Trading Desk
To the extent Clients delivery of eligible Loans under a Mandatory Delivery Commitment has
an aggregate outstanding principal balance (subject to the allowances stated above) less
than the Commitment amount, GMAC-RFC may, at its sole discretion, charge Client a
Buyout Fee as described in the Extension and Buyout Fees Section of this Chapter.
To the extent Clients delivery of eligible Loans under a Mandatory Delivery Commitment has
an aggregate outstanding principal balance (subject to the allowances stated above) greater
than the Commitment amount, GMAC-RFC may, at its sole discretion, either: reject any
submitted Loans (as chosen by GMAC-RFC) until the delivery is within the Commitment
amount, reject the entire delivery, or accept and purchase the additional Loans subject to
repricing.
(B) Best Efforts Delivery Commitments
GMAC-RFC permits participation in a Best Efforts Delivery Commitment solely at GMACRFCs discretion, and GMAC-RFC may restrict or halt Clients future participation in a Best
Efforts Delivery Commitment at any time.
Once Client closes a Loan subject to a Best Efforts Delivery Commitment, the Commitment
shall automatically be deemed a Mandatory Delivery Commitment and subject to the above
terms for Failure to Deliver or Over-Deliver: Mandatory Delivery Commitments
Section of this Chapter.
GMAC-RFC may presume that a Loan subject to a Best Efforts Delivery Commitment has
been closed by Client by the end of the Commitment Period unless and until Client
specifically informs GMAC-RFC that the Loan will not close. GMAC-RFC may charge the
appropriate Buyout Fee effective anytime after the 10th calendar day after the anticipated
closing date unless Client has informed GMAC-RFC of the non-closing.
If a Loan fails to close that was under a Best Efforts Delivery Commitment, and Client
informs GMAC-RFC that the Loan has not closed, Client will not be subject to a Buyout Fee for
the particular Commitment. However, if Client fails to deliver eligible Loans equal to at least
75% of the Loan amounts under its Best Efforts Delivery Commitments in any two
consecutive calendar quarters, GMAC-RFC reserves the right to assess Client an additional
fee equal to an amount up to the difference between the aggregate Best Efforts Delivery
Commitment dollar amount and Clients aggregate outstanding principal balance for
delivered and otherwise eligible Loans in those prior quarters.

Extension and Buyout Fees
If GMAC-RFC is willing to grant an extension to an existing Commitment Period, GMAC-RFC
may, at its sole discretion, require a repricing of the Commitment. GMAC-RFC may
communicate the repricing in the form of points to be netted against the original pricing,
which will be accounted for at the time of funding for the Loan once purchased.
Client will be required to buyout a Commitment by payment of a Buyout Fee under the
following circumstances:
As described in the Failure to Deliver or Over-Deliver Section of this Chapter; or
Where GMAC-RFC rejects a delivery of a Loan subject to a Commitment and Client is
unable or unwilling to correct the delivery in a timely manner.
Further, if a delivery remains in a pended or declined status for more than 75 days, GMACRFC may at its sole discretion demand that Client buyout the Commitment.
The Buyout Fee at any particular time is based on the then-current Rate Sheet and GMACRFCs formula for buyout rates (available upon request from the GMAC-RFC Trading Desk).
Failure to deliver a Loan that is subject to a Mandatory Delivery Commitment (including a
Best Efforts Delivery Commitment that has subsequently been deemed a Mandatory
Delivery Commitment once the described Loan has been closed by Client) is a material
breach of Clients obligations under this Client Guide, and Clients payment of a Buyout Fee is
not GMAC-RFCs sole remedy for such breach. Without limitation, in addition to the payment
of the Buyout Fee, Client shall remain fully liable to GMAC-RFC for all consequential damages
suffered by GMAC-RFC as a result of Clients failure to fulfill its obligations under a Mandatory
Delivery Commitment.
Once a buyout of a Commitment has been completed and Clients Buyout Fee obligations
have been fully satisfied, GMAC-RFC will make commercially reasonable efforts to return any
submitted Funding Documents and Final Documents for such Loan back to Client.

9B
Prior Underwriting Approval
This Chapter describes the process for obtaining prior underwriting approval for certain Loan
Programs.
Prior underwriting review and approval is required for Loans over $2 million to ensure
adherence to program and underwriting standards.
Prior underwriting means that GMAC-RFC will perform a complete underwriting analysis of
the Loan, including credit, income, assets, liabilities and appraisal prior to the Borrower
closing the Loan. A prior underwriting approval may, at GMAC-RFC's sole discretion, include
an exception to Program Criteria and underwriting standards. If GMAC-RFC has granted an
exception to Program Criteria or underwriting standards, then GMAC-RFC ensures the Loan
will not be denied for purchase or returned for repurchase due to non-compliance with the
Program Criteria or underwriting standards for which the exception was granted.
Except where GMAC-RFC has granted a specific exception, Loans must comply with all of
Client's Representations, Warranties and Covenants (including, without limitation, Client's
Representations and Warranties with respect to fraud and misrepresentation) and Client's
other obligations under this Client Guide.
Prior underwriting review is not offered for Loans less than or equal to $2 million.
Questions regarding the terms of this Chapter may be addressed by calling 800.814.8842.

B900

Notification of Prior Underwriting Loan File Status
A GMAC-RFC underwriter will fax a notification to the Client advising them of the Loan
disposition. The notification of Loan disposition will be sent to the contact person identified by
the Client on the Loan Transmittal (GMAC-RFC Form 16A00).

B903
Returning Loan Files
Loan files submitted for prior underwriting review will not be returned to the Client.
Therefore, GMAC-RFC recommends that Clients do not submit original Credit Documents.

B904
Equal Credit Opportunity Act (ECOA) and Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA)
Compliance
To comply with ECOA requirements on denied Loans submitted for prior underwriting review,
GMAC-RFC will provide Client with specific denial reasons. If the applicant does not receive a
Loan, Client must provide a Notice of Adverse Action to the applicant. If one notification is
provided on behalf of multiple creditors, the notification must contain GMAC-RFCs name and
address in addition to the names and addresses of any other creditors. The notification must
clearly indicate the denial reasons that relate to each creditor.
On a Loan submitted for prior approval, GMAC-RFC will make the credit decision and will
report the decision made on the application as required under the Home Mortgage Disclosure
Act (HMDA). If GMAC-RFC approves and subsequently purchases the Loan, it will report the
Loan as an origination. To avoid duplicate reporting, Client should not report the Loan as an
origination.

B905
Additional Delivery Documentation
When a prior approval Loan is submitted to GMAC-RFC for purchase, a copy of the Borrowers
rate lock agreement form must be in the file.

Alternative Delivery
GMAC-RFC in its sole discretion may approve Client for participation in an Alternative
Delivery process. Alternative Delivery means a process that provides Client with
nonstandard procedures and delivery requirements. GMAC-RFCs approval may be based,
among other things, on Clients ability to meet GMAC-RFCs eligibility requirements for the
process. If GMAC-RFC accepts Client to participate in an Alternative Delivery process, GMACRFC will provide Client with one or more unilateral notices setting out the non-standard
procedures, delivery requirements, as well as the product and the time period for which the
Alternative delivery applies. By participating in the Alternative Delivery process, Client
agrees to abide by the terms and conditions set out in the notices sent by GMAC-RFC to
Client. Except for the variances set out in the Alternative Delivery notices, all other terms and
conditions of this Chapter 9C continue to apply.
If Clients Alternative Delivery terms allow Client to retain any documents after funding,
Client will hold such retained documents in trust for GMAC-RFC. In addition, Client agrees to
deliver all documents in its possession within the time set out in the Alternative Delivery
notice or at such other time as GMAC-RFC requests the documents.

Failure to Comply with GMAC-RFC Remittance Requirements
Should the Client fail to comply with the remittance procedures, the Client will be assessed a
cash adjustment for late remittance based on the amount of the late remittance. The Client
acknowledges that the damage GMAC-RFC suffers as a result of a late remittance cannot be
quantified in advance and that the cash adjustment for late remittance constitutes liquidated
damages for the Clients breach of its obligation to make timely remittances. The cash
adjustment for late remittance is in addition to other remedies available to GMAC-RFC.
The cash adjustment for late remittance of all amounts due GMAC-RFC will be calculated
using the highest quoted Prime Rate printed on the first Business Day of each month in
The Wall Street Journal in its regular column entitled Money Rates plus 3%. This adjustment
changes automatically on publication of a different Prime Rate on the first Business Day of a
subsequent month. If the Prime Rate is not published, the adjustment will be determined by
GMAC-RFC.
The amount of the cash adjustment is determined by the amount of the overdue remittance
and the number of days the remittance is late, based on a 365-day year. The amount of the
cash adjustment for late remittance shall be equal to the greater of: (i) $100; or (ii) the
amount of interest that would accrue on such overdue remittance at the rate provided in the
immediately preceding paragraph from and including the date it became overdue until it is
paid in full.

Alternative Delivery
A process that provides Client with non-standard procedures and delivery requirements, as
described in the Alternative Delivery Section of Chapter 9C.
Ancillary Income
Servicing income derived from any Loan other than Servicing Fees, including, without
limitation, late charges and other incidental fees and fees or expense reimbursements relating to
insurance.
Automated Valuation Model (AVM)
A model using at least one of the two following methodologies to arrive at a determination of
Value for real property without the use of, or with limited intervention by a human appraiser.
Index or repeat sales model: A mathematical model that derives an estimate of current market
Value by taking an old Value from a previous sale or refinance and applying a market rate of
change to reflect a present day Value. The market rate of change percentage is derived from
looking at repeat sales within a limited geographic area (i.e., 5-digit zip); by property type (e.g.,
condominium, single family detached, 2-4 unit); and often within price bands (e.g., <50% of
median price, 50-100% of median, 100 - 150% of median, and >150% of median), for the same
period as the subject property.
Hedonic or regression models: Also referred to as comparable sales models, these models derive
an estimate of current market Value by analyzing the various characteristics of like properties
(e.g., square footage, lot size, number of bedrooms). The model then determines the impact
that each characteristic has on Value by looking at the characteristics of recent sales within a
limited geographic area (i.e., 5-digit zip) and determining an appropriate formula. By applying
the characteristics of the subject property to this formula, a current Value can be derived.
Best Efforts Delivery Commitment
A Commitment under which Client has committed that it shall make best efforts to close on an
eligible-for-purchase Loan, which conforms to the Loan described in the Commitment, and that if
Client does so then Client shall deliver the Loan to GMAC-RFC.
