2. Show Support for a Withdrawal of
Mortgagee Letter 2019-06
HUD issued Mortgagee Letter 19-06 without following the
Administrative Procedures Act. This was unlawful, and has
caused confusion and concern in our industry.
CBC Mortgage Agency has filed for a restraining order to
temporarily block this new policy and once in place, will
file for injunctive relief. We are confident that the
mortgagee letter will be removed and a more responsible
policy will be implemented that follows the proper
procedures of public comment and an implementation
period.
As we litigate, we seek your support politically to ensure
that our politicians hold government appointees
accountable. We encourage you to please be part of the
solution to continue to help credit worthy Americans
purchase their own home. Here are some ways you can
help.
1. In the link below, you will find documents that can be used as a
template to reach out to key appointees and congress people who can
quickly act on this irresponsible use of government power. Please share
your thoughts and be heard so we can preserve responsible down
payment assistance.
https://chenoafund.org/hud-mortgagee-letter-2019-06/
2. We are also asking for the stories of any borrowers who have been
directly affected by this letter. Please send us any information you are able
to about borrowers who have been affected by this sudden change,
whether it’s their story, or their contact information so we can reach
out. We will be using this to strengthen our case, and show the negative
impact the Mortgagee Letter has had.
3. If you have suspended our program until the mortgagee letter is
withdrawn, please send that to us in writing, so we can show the number
of companies and people that this is affecting.

11. In regards to Homebuyer Education,
Be sure to visit our Lender FAQs for more information on this topic. https://chenoafund.org/lender/lender-faq/
CBC Mortgage Agency offers pre-purchase counseling through Hope Loan Port, also known as Money Management International. This pre-
purchase counseling is provided for borrowers with a FICO score of 620 to 639, which also means this counseling is only required for our DPA
Edge products.
The aforementioned counseling courses are paid for by CBC Mortgage Agency. As such, correspondent-lenders should never direct their
borrowers with FICO scores 640+ to go to https://www.borrowersuccess.org/prepurchase. If borrowers without the proper FICO score attempt
to access this course, they will be turned away, which will cause much stress, frustration, and confusion on many borrowers’ parts.
For your borrowers that have a FICO score of 620 to 639, note that they will not be able to access the course until …
1.) they have been registered and/or locked by their lender in CBC Mortgage Agency’s portal.
2.) they have allowed for 24 hours to pass after the LO receives the relevant confirmation letter.
3.) they have a CBC loan number, provided for them by their LO (will start with “161”).
Coborrowers outside the 620 to 639 range will not need to take the course.
If you wish for your borrower with a FICO score 640+ to take Homebuyer Education through Hope Loan Port anyway, please utilize this link instead.
https://www.moneymanagement.org/buying-a-home/online-homebuyer-courses. Here, the courses range from $75-$99.
Feel free to contact info@chenoafund.org for even more information on Homebuyer Education.

authorized servicer within FHAC.
• Once we have sold the first lien to our new
investor and transferred holder rights to
them, they will pull the servicer rights from
our correspondents’ names and into their
own. If there is a delay on this for any
reason, please email
finaldocs@chenoafund.org for assistance.
