Freddie Mac Single-Family Seller/Servicer Guide 4701.4 — Late charges
The Uniform Single Family Note provides blanks for inserting the amounts of late charges and the grace period after which such charges are assessable. Any amount and period stated must be permissible under applicable law. For Mortgages purchased by Freddie Mac, the Seller agrees to collect late charges only on monthly installments more than 15 days late. If the 15-day period ends on a weekend or holiday, it is extended to the next Business Day. The Seller also agrees not to collect late charges of more than 5% of the late principal and interest payment. The Seller may retain any late charge collected as additional Servicing compensation. If the late charge stated in the Note is more than 5% of the principal and interest payment and/or is to be assessed on a monthly installment late 15 days or less, the Seller agrees to notify the Borrower in writing of Freddie Mac’s late charge and grace period requirements and to retain a copy of the written notification in the Mortgage file for each Mortgage purchased by Freddie Mac.
