CFR 202.8(a)(3), a Direct Endorsement
(DE) lender that sponsors third party
originators (TPOs) is, ‘‘responsible to
the Secretary for the actions of its third
party originators or mortgagees in
originating loans or mortgages, unless
applicable law or regulation requires
specific knowledge on the part of the
party to be held responsible.’’ As a
result, DE lenders are responsible for
conducting quality control reviews on
TPO originations of FHA-insured
mortgage loans and ensuring that their
Quality Control Plans contain this
oversight provision. This creates an
information collection burden on DE
lenders, since these institutions must
also conduct quality control on loans
they originate and underwrite. DE
lenders must conduct quality control
reviews on a sample of loans that they
originate or underwrite, including loans
originated by TPOs. For the purposes of
this information collection, it is
assumed that the number of loans
reviewed by each DE lender will comply
with the Sample Size Standard and
Sample Composition Standard
described in HUD Handbook 4000.1,
section V.A.3.a.
In addition, under 24 CFR 203.255(c)
and (e), HUD conducts both pre- and
post-endorsement reviews of loans
submitted for FHA insurance by DE
lenders. As part of those reviews, the
Secretary is authorized to determine if
there is any information indicating that
any certification or required document
is false, misleading, or constitutes fraud
or misrepresentation on the part of any
party, or that the mortgage fails to meet
a statutory or regulatory requirement. In
order to assist the Secretary with this
directive, FHA requires that lenders
self-report all findings of fraud and
material misrepresentation, as well any
material findings concerning the
origination, underwriting, or servicing
of the loan that the lender is unable to
mitigate or otherwise resolve, per HUD
Handbook 4000.1, sections V.A.2.d. iv
(A) and V.A.2.d.iv (B). The obligation to
self-report these findings creates an
additional information collection
burden on DE lenders.
Respondents: Active Title II Direct
Endorsement Lenders.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
3,187.
Estimated Number of Responses:
67,710.
Frequency of Response: Annually.
Average Hours per Response: .25.
Total Estimated Burden Hours:
