Our Impact

Impacting Communities Nationwide

At the heart of our mission is a commitment to strengthening local economies. We provide tailored mortgage solutions that empower community banks and credit unions to thrive. Together, we create pathways for sustainable growth and homeownership.

Making an Impact on Housing Finance

The MPF Program is unique in that it incentivizes sustainable home ownership by paying members to share in the risk of default while relieving them of the interest rate risk on those loans. Members can continue to service the loans sold and preserve their customer relationships.

"The ability to originate loans and sell them through the MPF Traditional products without loan-level price adjustments gives us the flexibility to compete with other lenders. Sometimes members tell us they want to keep their business with our credit union but they’ve received a matching or even better quote than what we’ve initially offered. In these cases, the lack of LLPAs gives us the pricing flexibility we need to compete and continue to serve our membership without sacrificing profitability."

Daniel McLean

Vice President, Quality Control and Secondary Market Sales, Credit Union 1

"We appreciate the flexibility to either hold loans on our balance sheet until an opportune time or sell them immediately, with best efforts or mandatory lock execution—whatever market conditions require. In the current high-rate environment, having the ability to quickly move loans off the balance sheet in moments of market improvement has been especially helpful."

Russ Bernardo

Chief Lending Officer, OCCU

"As we’ve scaled up our mortgage operations, the MPF Traditional products have given TTCU the tools and resources to operate like a larger lender, with much greater flexibility in reporting requirements than other GSEs as well as the option to continue servicing our members’ loans."

Floyd Goode

Senior Vice President, Chief Lending Officer, TTCU Federal Credit Union

"Managing liquidity can be a challenge for lenders when interest rates rise. Texas Tech Credit Union originates a high volume of mortgages for our asset size, which means it’s important for us to sell and transfer loans promptly so we can turn around and provide loans to more members. With the MPF Traditional products, we’ve been able to complete this process quickly and easily, usually within 48 hours versus the seven to 10 days we’d expect with another investor."

Mortgage Operations Director, Texas Tech Credit Union

"We’ve found the MPF Program to be a friendly introduction to the secondary market. The guidelines are exceptionally easy to follow, and gaining access to Fannie Mae’s Desktop Underwriter® through the Program has made the process even smoother."
