Freddie Mac Single-Family Seller/Servicer Guide 4301.2 — Borrower requirements for refinance Mortgages
When an existing Mortgage will be satisfied through a refinance transaction, at least one Borrower on the refinance Mortgage must be a Borrower on the Mortgage being refinanced as documented in the Mortgage file. Exceptions: When no Borrower on the refinance Mortgage is a Borrower on the Mortgage being refinanced, one of the following must apply and be documented in the Mortgage file: ■ At least one Borrower on the refinance Mortgage held title to and resided in the Mortgaged Premises as a Primary Residence and has been making timely Mortgage payments, including the payments for any secondary financing, for the most recent 12-month period ■ At least one Borrower on the refinance Mortgage inherited or was legally awarded the Mortgaged Premises in accordance with a final judgment or decision from a legal body (e.g., court, jury, judge or arbitrator) such as in a case of divorce, separation or dissolution of a domestic partnership Note: A Living Trust may be made irrevocable by a Settlor’s death. To be an eligible Borrower at the time of the refinance transaction, the Borrower must continue to be a Living Trust that meets Freddie Mac’s revocability and, as applicable, other eligibility requirements.
Operationalizing Freddie Mac Single-Family Seller/Servicer Guide 4301.2 — Borrower requirements for refinance Mortgages
This is verbatim, source-snapshotted regulator text from the Claude for Compliance open corpus. To turn a rule like this into compliance work product: gap-analyze your policies and procedures (P&Ps) against these requirements to surface stale, conflicting, or missing provisions; operationalize any change with a ready-to-run update kit; and produce audit-ready evidence — every step grounded only in the regulator’s own words, never invented.
To work from the whole rulebook rather than this one page: download the corpus — every register on this site, verbatim, each with its source snapshot and effective date — then follow the methodology. It asks your assistant to answer only from the downloaded text, cite the register id and effective date it used, and tell you when the corpus does not cover something instead of filling the gap from memory. Running it locally also means no one sees which regulations you are looking at.
