The Biden Administration and the FHFA have announced several new initiatives to combat housing inequality, including the GSE investment of up to $850 million annually in Low-Income Housing Tax Credits.

New goals set forth by the GSEs establish benchmarks and seek to promote equitable access to affordable housing for all.

xThe FHFA measures loan-performance metrics and steps taken by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to ensure home retention for struggling borrowers.

According to a new report, nearly 2.5 million U.S. homeowners remain in forbearance plans, the lowest level since last March.

Former Freddie Mac CEO Don Layton takes a critical look at the FHFA’s 2021 Scorecard, finding it causes more confusion than transparency.

Both GSEs issued their monthly volume summaries for June. How are their portfolios weathering the current economic challenges?

Nonetheless, Fannie and Freddie's Q2 results show that the pandemic's impact continues to be felt across several metrics.

A letter sent to FHFA Director Mark Calabria outlines their concerns that stakeholders will not have enough time to respond by the August 31 deadline.

A new report says some within the industry are calling for FHFA to shield them from losses they will incur due to mortgage forbearances amid the pandemic.

Having remained apolitical since its inception, the Credit Risk Transfer program may now succumb to political pressure, according to a former Freddie Mac executive.
