If the borrower does not meet the requirements specified in the guaranty agreement, you may deny the request. You do not need to notify Fannie Mae unless the agreement is expiring and the mortgage loan would need to be paid down.

Fannie Mae must approve any request to extend a guaranty agreement. You must submit your request 30 days before the agreement expires to allow time for legal review.

  • Copy of the borrower’s request
  • Copy of the guaranty agreement and all amendments
  • Certified rent rolls covering the period specified in the guaranty agreement
  • Audited operating statement(s) covering the period(s) specified in the guaranty agreement
  • Any other documentation required by the agreement, if applicable
  • Servicer’s narrative
    • Property name and address
    • Fannie Mae loan number
    • Reason for the request
    • Analysis of the operating statement(s) – if the condition covers three or six consecutive months, provide an analysis for each month
    • The original underwriting analysis
    • Analysis of the rent roll – if the condition covers three or six consecutive months, provide an analysis for each month

Resolution/Follow-up

If we approve the request to extend the terms and conditions of the guaranty agreement, you should prepare and submit to Drawer AM an amendment to the guaranty agreement blacklined against the most recent version of the agreement. You do not have delegated authority to execute the amendment to the guaranty agreement.

If we deny the request, follow the instructions in the guaranty agreement for paying down the mortgage loan. Forward your payoff calculation to the applicable Asset Management mailbox and to Fannie Mae’s Multifamily Operations team at [email protected] for review and approval.

Always consult the loan document, transaction document, your servicing agreement, the Multifamily Guide and the relevant forms for complete instructions.
