RFC Receives Approval as a Fannie Mae Seller-Servicer

Oct 09, 2012

Residential Finance Corporation (RFC) has announced that it is now a Fannie Mae Seller-Servicer and will be retaining the servicing of select loans. This designation, a reflection of RFC’s commitment to loan quality and compliance, will allow the lender to service its own loans. Instead of simply selling loans to the secondary market, Fannie Mae’s approval will allow RFC to nurture its relationships with its customers for the life of their loans. “Receiving this approval is another stage in our growth plan and gives RFC the flexibility to meet the financial needs of even more consumers,” said David Stein, senior vice president and general counsel at Residential Finance Corporation (RFC). “We are glad to be able to offer a full range of loan products to borrowers throughout the United States. Building a servicing portfolio strengthens our commitment to help consumers rebound in these tough economic times and will allow additional avenues of business for RFC in the future.”
