DUS Sets the Standard
For over 35 years, Fannie Mae Multifamily has been a trusted source of reliable mortgage capital for the secondary mortgage market. At the forefront of multifamily financing, our Delegated Underwriting and Servicing (DUS®) platform is driven by a business-first, future-forward approach. We’re always investing in technology that can streamline the process. We’re finding new and creative ways to structure deals for our partners. Plus, we have a dedicated team bringing decades of experience in the housing industry and multifamily real estate lending to make an impact in communities across the U.S.
DUS lenders raise the bar
As the largest guarantor of mortgages in the U.S., we are a leader in multifamily housing financing. DUS is called “The Loan We All Own” because it aligns the interests of lenders, borrowers, and investors. Our DUS lenders underwrite, close, and deliver loans on our behalf while typically retaining one-third of the risk. Together, we leverage technology, disclosure and asset management tools, a strong risk management framework, and data standards to continually evolve and improve the lending experience at every step.
With the latest technology and dedicated experts on our team, we work seamlessly with every stakeholder to move us all toward a future based on ease of execution and the highest standard of excellence. That is the promise of the DUS model.
