Overview
The Freddie Mac selling system (selling system) is a web-based system for selling
Mortgages. The selling system functions as an all-in-one solution for pricing, contracting
and loan delivery. It offers a variety of selling options and lets you manage your contract
and loan pipelines, provides access to funding reports and more.
When Mortgages are sold for cash under the Servicing Released Sales Process, Freddie
Mac arranges for a Servicer, as identified by Freddie Mac, to accept a Transfer of
Servicing from the Seller at the time the Seller sells the Mortgage to Freddie Mac.
Sellers must be pre-approved to sell loans for cash under the Servicing Released Sales
Process (SRSP).
The Freddie Mac funding date, also referred to in this user guide as the sale date, is the
date from which title to the servicing rights transfers from the Seller to the Servicer
(Servicer). The Seller’s rights, to any portion of the servicing fees or any other fees or

income relating to servicing of the loan(s) terminate at the close of business on the sale
date.
Sellers participating in the SRSP must comply with requirements as set forth in the
Single-Family Seller/Servicer Guide (“Guide”). The Guide consists of two volumes
containing Freddie Mac's requirements for Mortgages secured by 1- to 4-unit properties.
Volume 1 sets forth the requirements and obligations relating to the purchase and sale of
Mortgages and Volume 2 sets forth the Seller's responsibilities and obligations with
respect to the Servicing of Mortgages.
For specific information relating to general sale, delivery and servicing requirements for
Mortgages sold under the Servicing Released Sales Process, refer to:

Guide Chapter 17: Mortgage Delivery Instructions

Guide Chapter 9: Requirements for selling fixed-rate Mortgages to Freddie Mac
under fixed-rate Cash Contracts, and specifically Guide Section 9.9,
Requirements for the Servicing Released Sales Process.

Guide Exhibit 28A: Loan Servicing Purchase and Sale Agreement for the
Servicing Released Sales Process. The Loan Servicing Purchase and Sale
Agreement ("Agreement") is by and between a Seller participating in the Freddie
Mac Selling System Servicing-Released Sales Process ("Seller") and a Servicer
approved by Freddie Mac to service Loans sold to Freddie Mac through the
Servicing-Released Sales Process ("Servicer"). When you sell Mortgages under
the SRSP you agree to comply with the terms of Exhibit 28A.

Introduction
Selling System Delivery Tips
The information below will assist you in delivering certain servicing released loan data. Follow
these instructions to prevent delivery and funding errors between Freddie Mac, the Transferee
Servicer, (hereafter referred to as Servicer) and the Seller.
How to Prevent Data and Funding Errors for Mortgages Sold Through the
SRSP
Data delivery requirements for mortgages sold through the SRSP are the same as for all
mortgages sold to Freddie Mac. Delivering accurate data for all required fields will
prevent data and funding errors. It is imperative that Sellers adhere to the delivery
requirements in Guide Chapter 17.
If you deliver inaccurate information in the selling system, it can affect the amount
Freddie Mac funds the Seller and funding adjustments due the Servicer such as escrow
funds, interest adjustment, etc. Likewise, the erroneous information can be used by the
Servicer to set up the borrowers servicing account which can result in untimely servicing
set up and lead to RESPA violations.
The information below highlights certain servicing released data delivery fields where we
see frequent data delivery errors. Following the instructions below will prevent funding
errors and post settlement reconciliation with the Servicer.
How to Deliver a Scheduled UPB and Valid DDLPI
When selling mortgages to Freddie Mac for cash, you must deliver a scheduled unpaid
principal balance (UPB). Furthermore, when delivering a mortgage through the SRSP,
you may have to amortize down the UPB under certain circumstances as described
below.
When the Freddie Mac funding date occurs after the 10th of the month in which the
interest is paid to, you may have to amortize down the loan. The table below provides
detailed steps on data delivery requirements for the Loan Acquisition Scheduled UPB
Amount and the Last Paid Installment Due Date and Servicer packaging requirements.
Example:

The illustration below displays the selling system’s loan screen that contains the data
points for the Loan Acquisition Scheduled UPB Amount and the Last Paid Installment
Due Date (also referred to as the DDLPI).
Note: The selling system calculates the scheduled UPB (a feature available in the
loan pipeline) however; this feature does not advance the DDLPI date in accordance
with the Servicing Released Transfer requirements. If you use this tool, you must
return to the Create/Modify loan screen and edit the Last Paid Installment Due Date.
Note: For more information on funding adjustments and reconciliation of funding
adjustments, refer to Sections 1.4 and 3.2 of Guide Exhibit 28A and Guide Section
9.9 (c).
How to Enter Monthly Escrow Collections
The selling system will price escrowed and non-escrowed loans differently based on the
price offered by the Servicer. When you create a contract in the selling system, you
must indicate whether the Escrow Coverage includes Taxes and Insurance (an escrowed
loan) or if the loan is Not Escrowed. The contract price you receive will be based on the
escrow coverage option selected.
Servicing Transfer Instructions User Guide
Chapter 1: Introduction

Introduction
In some instances, the borrower may request the collection of partial escrows. Partial
escrow collections are allowed through the SRSP however, there is no pricing benefit.
The two contract pricing options for Escrow Coverage are “Taxes and Insurance” (fully
escrowed) or “Not Escrowed” (no escrows).
For mortgages with full or partial escrow collections, the Seller must complete all
required escrow information.
The procedure below illustrates how to enter escrow loan data in the selling system’s
create and/or modify loan screen.

4. The system will advance you to the Current tab. Scroll down to the Escrow
Details section.
5. Click the drop down menu to select the type of escrow collection and then enter
the amount of the monthly collection in dollars and cents using two decimals
spaces. (Do not enter any information in this section if the mortgage is not
escrowed.)
If the loan has partial escrows collections, enter only the Escrow Item Type and
the Escrow Monthly Payment Amount for the escrow item that will be included in
the borrower’s monthly PITI payment. For mortgages with monthly escrow
collections, also refer to the section titled How to Enter Escrow and Buydown
Funds (formerly known as the Escrow Deposit).
Note: It is the Seller’s responsibility to ensure the information entered in the
Escrow Details section is correct. The Servicer uses this information to set up the
borrower’s monthly PITI payment. Therefore, if you enter the data incorrectly, it
will result in incorrect billing to the borrower.

Introduction
How to Enter Escrow and Buydown Funds (Formerly known as the
Escrow Deposit)
When the mortgage has monthly escrow collections or a temporary buydown subsidy, the
Seller must complete the information required in the section titled Other Funds Collected
at closing. The amounts entered in this section, known as servicing released
adjustments, are automatically deducted/netted (on the funding date) from the amount
disbursed to the Seller and are simultaneously wired to the Servicer.
The procedure below illustrates how to enter data in Other Funds Collected at Closing
Details section of the selling system’s create and/or modify loan screen.
1. From the create/modify loan screen, go to the Other Funds Collected at Closing
Details section.
2. Click the check box next to Other Funds Collected at Closing Type
3. Click the drop down menu for Other Funds Collected at Closing Type and select
Escrow Funds or Buydown (for the unapplied temporary buydown subsidy). Do
not select Advanced PITI Payment or Principal Curtailment.
4. Go to the Other Funds Collected at Closing Amount and enter the applicable
amount. Refer to the table below to assist you in calculating the dollar value
required in this field.

The example below illustrates a loan with Escrow collections and Temporary Buydown
Subsidy funds. The identified funds type and amounts are due the Servicer and are used
to establish the borrower’s loan record and for set up of the borrower’s escrow and/or
Temporary Buydown Subsidy account(s).
Note : When an escrow disbursement is payable within 60 days of the Freddie
Mac funding date, the Seller is responsible for disbursing funds to the
appropriate collection authority. When this occurs, the Seller must provide the
Servicer with documentation evidencing that the full payment was made to the
collection authority.
Completing Borrower Mailing Address Information
The Borrower Mailing Address Certification Form is required when the primary
borrower’s mailing address is different from the subject property address, for instance,
when:



The subject property is a second home
The subject property is an investment
The primary borrower is stationed away from the subject property
Servicing Transfer Instructions User Guide
Chapter 1: Introduction
May 2014
Page 1-11
Introduction
Follow the steps below to complete the required information.
1. From the create/modify loan screen, go to the Borrower Mailing Address
(Borrower 1) section
2. If the primary Borrower’s Mail to Address is not the Same as Property Indicator
(the subject property address), select False and complete the remaining
information in this section including the country code
3. If the Borrower Mail to Address is the Same as Property Indicator (the subject
property address), select True and leave the remaining information in this section
blank.
The Servicer will use the information contained on the Borrower Mailing Address
Certification when forwarding correspondence, billing statements and miscellaneous
information to the borrower.
If you forgot to complete this section before the loan status changed to Settlement
Locked, you must complete the Borrower Mailing and Billing Address Certification
(located in the Chapter 14, Checklists and Forms) and place it in the servicing delivery
file in the order as shown on the Document Checklist.
Understanding Your Freddie Mac Settlement Statements
Freddie Mac disburses payment to the Seller (via a cash wire) on the Freddie Mac
funding date for mortgages purchased. The cash disbursement includes the cash price,
servicing released premium (SRP), if applicable, in addition to funding adjustments and
net funding.
What is Net Funding?
Net funding is the process by which Freddie Mac funds mortgages sold for cash.
Under the Servicing Released Sales Process, Freddie Mac will net applicable
adjustments due the Servicer from the total amount due the Seller. Freddie Mac will
transfer all applicable disbursements due both the Seller and the Servicer on the
Freddie Mac funding date.
Servicing Transfer Instructions User Guide
Chapter 1: Introduction
May 2014
Page 1-12
Introduction
Funding Adjustments
Funding adjustments are comprised of the escrow funds (formerly known as the
escrow deposit), interest adjustment, Servicing Spread, tax service fee, transaction fee
and Temporary Buydown Subsidy funds. The amount of funding adjustments will be
identified on the funding date as follows:

The Seller enters in the Selling System the amounts held as escrow funds and
Temporary Buydown Subsidy funds for each Mortgage sold servicing released
and

The Selling System calculates the interest adjustment, Servicing Spread, tax
service fee and transaction fee
Refer to Guide Section 17.33 for additional information regarding delivery
requirements for Mortgages sold servicing released under Mandatory Cash Contracts
or Best Efforts Contracts.
The accuracy of the escrow funds and Temporary Buydown Subsidy funds, as
submitted by the Seller, is the responsibility of the Seller. Freddie Mac does not edit
or validate the amounts of the Escrow funds and Temporary Buydown Subsidy funds.
Funding adjustments calculated by the selling system include:

Interest Adjustments

Servicing Spread Adjustment (if applicable)

Tax Service Fee

Transaction Fee
On the Funding Date, Freddie Mac deducts the amount of the funding adjustments
from the sales proceeds paid by Freddie Mac for the purchase of each Mortgage sold
servicing released by the Seller under a Mandatory or Best Efforts cash contract.
Freddie Mac forwards the deducted amount of the funding adjustments to the
Servicer.
Any reconciliation, correction or adjustment to the amount of escrow funds or
Temporary Buydown Subsidy funds transferred to the Servicer is the responsibility of
the Seller and the Servicer. Freddie Mac will not adjust, calculate, refund or pay any
amounts with respect to the escrow funds or Temporary Buydown Subsidy funds after
the Funding Date.
Accrued Interest/Interest Adjustment
The Seller is due accrued interest for each Mortgage sold to Freddie Mac unless the
Freddie Mac funding date is the first (1st) of the month. When the Servicer is due
interest, it is referred to as an Interest Adjustment. This amount is calculated by the
selling system and is paid as follows:

When the Freddie Mac funding date occurs in the month prior to the DDLPI date,
the Servicer is due the interest adjustment.

When the Freddie Mac funding date occurs in the same month as the DDLPI date,
the Seller is due the accrued interest.
Servicing Transfer Instructions User Guide
Chapter 1: Introduction

Introduction
Servicing Spread Adjustment
The Servicing Spread adjustment is compensation for servicing mortgages for Freddie
Mac. This amount is calculated by the selling system and paid as follows:

When the Freddie Mac funding date occurs in the month prior to the DDLPI date,
the Servicer is due the servicing spread adjustment.

When the Freddie Mac funding date occurs in the same month as the DDLPI date,
the Seller is due the servicing spread adjustment.
Tax Service Fee
A tax service fee is charged by the Servicer for preparation of the initial escrow analysis
for all loans. The tax service fee due each participating Servicer is $80 and is subject to
change without notice at the Servicer’s discretion.
The tax service fee is a funding adjustment as noted in Guide Chapter 9.9 (c) and is
automatically transferred by Freddie Mac from the Seller to the Servicer on the funding
date.
Transaction Fee
The transaction fee is a fee due the Servicer for the initial costs associated with setting up
the Mortgage. The fee due each participating Servicer is $150 and is subject to change
without notice at each Servicer’s discretion.
The transaction fee is a funding adjustment as noted in Guide Section 9.9 (c) and is
automatically transferred by Freddie Mac from the Seller to the Servicer on the Freddie
Mac funding date.
Settlement Statements
Sellers can confirm loan funding and the total amounts disbursed to the Seller and the
Servicer by accessing Settlement Statements in the selling system. The statements
become available on the Freddie Mac funding date as follows:


How to Export the Servicer Assigned Loan Identifier
The Servicer assigned loan identifier is available in the selling system beginning on the
Freddie Mac funding date. This field is better known as the Servicer Delivered Servicer
Loan Identifier. While the identifier cannot be viewed in the selling system, it can be
exported. Sellers can export the Servicer Delivered Servicer Loan Identifier to:

Include in the loan sale notification letters or correspondence with the borrower
and interested parties

Assist you and the borrower in tracking the loan with the Servicer
You can access this data field from the selling system’s Export Data function. The data
field is available within the Summary Data MISMO 3.0 export data set (shown below),
and can be added to a customized data set.

Delivery to the Servicer
As noted in Guide Exhibit 28A, Loan Servicing Purchase and Sale Agreement for the
Servicing Released Sales Process, the Freddie Mac funding date/sale date triggers the
delivery time-line to the Servicer. Within three (3) Business Days after that date, the
Seller at its own expense must furnish the Servicer with the following:

Loan Information. Available computer or like records requested by Servicer
reflecting pertinent information on the Loans as of the Origination Dates of
such Loans, including but not limited to comprehensive tax and insurance
information identifying payee, payee address, next payment due date, and
policy number.

File. Provide a complete loan file to Servicer or as directed by Freddie Mac.
Seller must also retain a copy of the complete loan file and maintain that copy

On the Freddie Mac funding date or in accordance with RESPA and applicable laws, the

Notice to Insurance Compaies
On the Freddie Mac funding date, the Seller must provide a written notice to all interested
insurance companies and/or their agents of the transfer of Servicing rights from the Seller
to the Servicer.
Flood and Catastrophe Insurance
Final evidence of life-of-loan, transferable flood insurance must meet the requirements
set forth in the Guide, Section 58.3. If the property is in a flood zone, but flood insurance
has been waived, the mortgage file must include documentation, which explains the basis
of the waiver (FEMA Letter of Map Amendment or FEMA Letter of Map Revision).
The assignment of existing flood certifications is handled differently amongst the
Servicers. Refer to the table below for Servicer specific requirements:

Hazard Insurance (Fire and Extended Coverage)
Evidence of hazard insurance must be forwarded in the form of a current policy or a
hazard insurance binder and paid receipt. For purchase transactions, the Seller must
provide evidence that the policy has been paid in full for the first year. For refinance
transactions or transfer of an existing policy, the Seller must provide a balance sufficient
to pay the policy in full at time of renewal.
The insurance policy must comply with the requirements for evidence of insurance set
forth in Section 58.7 of the Guide.
Optional Insurance
Optional insurance coverage such as mortgage life insurance is not transferable from the
Seller to the Servicer. If the borrower elected optional insurance coverage, the Seller
must make arrangements to bill the borrower directly for this coverage on or before the
Freddie Mac Funding Date.
Private Mortgage Insurance
Private mortgage insurance is required in most instances where the LTV exceeds 80
percent unless otherwise required in the Guide and/or the Seller’s other Purchase
Documents.
Annual Mortgage Insurance. The Seller must collect and pay the first annual premium.
If the premium is paid at closing, the HUD-I must reflect the premium paid in advance by
the lender. If paid after closing, the Seller must provide the Servicer with clear evidence
that the first annual premium was paid in full. The lender may either provide a copy of
the check sent to the mortgage Insurer or a copy of the paid receipt.
Monthly Mortgage Insurance. The Seller must collect two months of mortgage
insurance payments at closing. If the premium is paid at closing, the HUD I must reflect
the payments paid in advance by the lender. If paid after closing, the Seller must provide
the Servicer with clear evidence that two months’ worth of payments were paid to the
Mortgage Insurer. The lender may either provide a copy of the check sent to the
Mortgage Insurer or a copy of the paid receipt.

Resolve Settlement/Funding
Errors

How to Resolve Settlement/Funding Errors
Errors in the amount disbursed to the Seller or funding adjustments wired to the Servicer
occur due to erroneous data entered in the selling system. Data delivered in the selling
system affecting amounts due the Seller or the Servicer can be reconciled post funding
between the Seller and the Servicer for:
 Other Funds Collected at Closing Amount (formerly known as Escrow Deposit)
 Unpaid Principal Balance discrepancies
Any reconciliation, correction or adjustment to the Other Funds Collected at Closing
Amounts transferred to the Servicer is the responsibility of the Seller and the Servicer.
The Seller and Servicer must adjust and reconcile these amounts after the Freddie Mac
Funding Date.
Freddie Mac will not adjust, calculate, refund or pay any amounts with respect to
the Other Funds Collected at Closing Amounts after the funding date. For each loan
for which Servicer informs the Seller of the need to adjust and reconcile the funding
adjustments, the Seller must research the discrepancy and transfer to the Servicer by wire,
any additional funds required within three (3) business day’s notification by the Servicer.
If the Seller fails to transfer any and all funds due the Servicer within three (3) business
days’ notice from the Servicer, then the Servicer may in its sole discretion, charge the
Seller a late fee of up to $500.
Other Funds Collected at Closing Amount (formerly known as Escrow
Deposit)
For incorrect amounts entered in the selling system under the section titled Other Funds
Collected at Closing Details, the reconciliation is conducted between the Seller and the
Servicer. Refer to the table below for instructions on how to resolve these error(s):

The Servicer will coordinate the resolution with Freddie Mac and will notify the Seller on
the course of action to be taken. A resolution resulting in a system change (sometimes
known as a master file change) will be subject to a compensatory fee from the Seller, as
noted in Guide Section 78.51. A resolution resulting in a repurchase will be subject to
fees and other requirements as noted in Guide Exhibit 28A and Chapter 72 and Section
78.20.
The illustration below depicts the section of the selling system’s loan screen that contains
the data point for the Loan Acquisition Scheduled UPB Amount and the Last Paid
Installment Due Date (also referred to as the DDLPI).
Note: The selling system calculates the scheduled UPB (a feature available in the
loan pipeline) however; this feature does not advance the DDLPI date in accordance
with the Servicing Released Transfer requirements. If you use this tool, you must
return to the Create/Modify loan screen and edit the Last Paid Installment Due Date.
Note: For more information on funding adjustments and reconciliation of funding
adjustments, refer to Sections 1, 4 and 3.2 of Guide Exhibit 28Aand Guide Section
9.9 (c).
Payments and Refunds
This section provides information and instructions on how to forwards funds due the
Servicer and how to request refunds due the Seller.
Forward or Request Funds
The post settlement reconciliation of funds due the Seller or the Servicer is conducted
between the Seller and the Servicer. If funds are due either party, it is the Seller’s
responsibility to complete the Payment/Refund Transmittal Form and forward it to the
Servicer. Furthermore, for each loan for which the Servicer informs Seller of the need to
adjust and reconcile the Funding Adjustments, the Seller must research the discrepancy
and transfer to the Servicer by wire transfer any additional funds required. Freddie Mac
will not adjust, calculate, refund or pay any amounts with respect to the Escrow
deposits or temporary subsidy buydown funds after the Funding Date.

Repayment of the Servicing Released Premium (SRP) to the Servicer
The Servicer is due reimbursement of the servicing released premium if:


The mortgage payoff occurs within 120 days of the Freddie Mac Funding
Date
Freddie Mac requires a repurchase within 60 months of the Freddie Mac
Funding Date
Payoffs
Servicing Released Mortgages paid in full within 120 days of the Freddie Mac
Funding Date are subject to 100 percent SRP recovery by the Servicer. Sellers
must return/repay the full SRP to the Servicer. Servicers will bill the Sellers
directly for the SRP to be repaid.
Repurchases
If the Seller is required by Freddie Mac to repurchase a loan, the repurchase
request will be sent directly to the Seller and a copy to the Servicer. Upon receipt
of the repurchase request, the Seller must contact the Servicer’s designated
business area to make arrangements for repurchase. The amounts due for a
repurchase (including all or a portion, as applicable, of the Servicing Released
Premium) must be sent to the Servicer which then reports the repurchase and
remits the proceeds to Freddie Mac in accordance with the requirements in Guide
Section 78.20 (see the table below for Servicing Released Premium repayment
schedule for repurchases). Once Freddie Mac has received the repurchase amount
due from the Servicer, the Note will be released and returned to the Servicer.
Upon receipt of the original Note from the Designated Custodian, the Servicer
will process the necessary Mortgage transfer documentation and return the
original file along with its contents directly to the Seller.
The Servicer may charge Seller a $200 repurchase fee for each loan that Seller is
required to repurchase. Seller shall remit payment of such repurchase fees
directly to Servicer.

Servicer Signoff Date
Exhibit 28A, 6.3:
Servicer shall be entitled to charge Seller a fee ("Late Document Fee") equal to $100.00 per Loan per month on those Loans for which
all original final documents specified in the Final Documents section of the Servicing Transfer Instructions have not been delivered to
Servicer or the Designated Custodian within six (6) months of the Sale Date. Such Late Document Fee shall begin to accrue on the
first day of the seventh (7th) month after the Sale Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Servicer shall not impose a Late Document
Fee if Seller's failure to deliver an original Loan document is caused by the failure of the applicable recording office to record and
return an original Loan document, provided Seller, in Servicer's reasonable judgment, has exercised and continues to exercise
reasonable good faith effort to fulfill its obligation hereunder.
