Published on Sep 17, 2025

MPF Xtra Selling Updates – FNMA SEL-2025-07

Effective Date: Immediately (unless otherwise noted)

Fannie Mae published SEL-2025-07 which covers the below referenced topics that are applicable to mortgage loans sold under the MPF Xtra product:

  • Retirement of “appraisal waiver”:
    • To more accurately reflect the evolving role of valuation solutions, the term “appraisal waiver” will no longer be used in conjunction with “value acceptance.”
  • Rescission of reconsideration of value components:
    • Revised two requirements of the framework for a borrower-initiated reconsideration of value. 
  • Expansion of MH Advantage:
    • Expanding eligibility requirements to include single-width MH Advantage® homes.
  • Establishing borrower ownership interest – life estates:
    • Updated the requirements to clarify fee simple ownership of a security property held in a life estate under property law as an eligible form of property ownership.

To gain a full understanding of these topics, PFIs should review the entire Fannie Mae Announcement and any applicable Fannie Mae Selling Guide chapters, forms, or exhibits noted in the announcements.
