Bankruptcy Control
Foreclosure Control
Foreclosure Control offers various options for tracking and reporting on loans in your portfolio that are in
foreclosure.
Risk Profiler
Risk Profiler is a behavioral scoring model Fannie Mae developed to predict the likelihood of a mortgage going into foreclosure
or becoming an acquired property within two years. Fannie Mae's model can develop a risk profile score for any current or delinquent
mortgage based on several key elements - the borrower's mortgage payment history, other credit characteristics from the borrower's
credit report, and the current value of the security property. Since Risk Profiler can predict the risk for each mortgage with a high
degree of accuracy, a servicer now has another effective loss mitigation and servicing tool at its disposal.
EarlyIndicator
EarlyIndicator is a program developed by Freddie Mac that incorporates statistical models designed to reduce credit losses,
increase the efficiency of servicers' delinquency management operations, and help borrowers avoid foreclosure. By implementing the
EarlyIndicator score into your monthly call campaign and loss mitigation strategy, you can focus your attention on the mortgages that
pose the greatest risk, effectively prioritizing your monthly call program campaign and loss mitigation activity.
