Non performing loan sales report released

The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) has released its latest report on the sale of non-performing loans (NPLs) by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (the Enterprises) ,which includes information about NPLs sold through December 31, 2019, and reflects borrower outcomes on sales of 126,757 NPLs sold with a total unpaid principal balance (UPB) of $23.8 billion.

  • NPL sales highlights:
    • NPLs sold had an average delinquency of 2.9 years and an average loan-to-value ratio of 91 percent.
    • The average delinquency for pools sold ranged from 1.4 years to 6.2 years.
    • NPLs in New Jersey, New York, and Florida represented nearly half (44 percent) of the NPLs sold. These three states accounted for 47 percent of the Enterprises' loans that were one year or more delinquent as of December 31, 2014, prior to the start of NPL program sales in 2015.
    • Fannie Mae sold 86,216 loans with an aggregate UPB of $15.8 billion, an average delinquency of 3.0 years, and an average LTV of 89 percent.
    • Freddie Mac sold 40,541 loans with an aggregate UPB of $8.1 billion, an average delinquency of 2.9 years, and an average LTV of 98 percent.
  • Borrower outcomes highlights:
    • The borrower outcomes in the report are based on 114,745 NPLs that were settled by June 30, 2019, and reported as of December 31, 2019.
    • Compared to a benchmark of similarly delinquent Enterprise NPLs that were not sold, foreclosures avoided for sold NPLs were higher than the benchmark.
    • NPLs on homes occupied by borrowers had the highest rate of foreclosure avoidance outcomes (38.3 percent foreclosure avoided versus 15.9 percent for vacant properties).
    • NPLs on vacant homes had a much higher rate of foreclosure, more than double the foreclosure rate of borrower-occupied properties (76.9 percent foreclosure versus 34.4 percent for borrower occupied properties). Foreclosures on vacant homes typically improve neighborhood stability and reduce blight as the homes are sold or rented to new occupants.
