FNMA Servicing Guide A2-1-07 — Subservicing (05/13/2026)
FNMA Servicing Guide A2-1-07 governs subservicing arrangements: when a Fannie Mae-approved master servicer uses another organization (the subservicer) to perform some or all of its servicing functions. Both master and subservicer must be Fannie Mae-approved servicers in good standing for new arrangements; written subservicing agreements must acknowledge Fannie Mae's right to rescind recognition; custodial account forms (1013 / 1014) must be submitted; the master servicer remains fully liable to Fannie Mae regardless of subservicer performance; subservicing arrangements must be confirmed annually via Form 582 (Lender Record Information). Fills the A2/A3 subservicing gap previously identified in the CSH library coverage audit.
