(l) Notice requirements The notice must advise the Borrower of the following: 1. The date the new Servicing Agent or Master Servicer undertakes the performance of the Servicing obligations 2. The name and address of the Servicer undertaking the performance of the Servicing obligations 3. The names and telephone numbers of the contact persons or departments where the Borrowers’ inquiries relating to the transfer should be directed. (If toll-free numbers are not available, the letter must indicate that collect calls will be accepted.) Such names and telephone numbers must be provided for the party previously performing the Servicing obligations as well as the new Servicing Agent or Master Servicer undertaking the performance of the Servicing obligations. 4. The date when the party previously performing the Servicing obligation will no longer collect the Borrowers’ payments and when the new Servicing Agent or Master Servicer undertaking the performance of the Servicing obligations will begin to collect them 5. Procedures for maintenance of automatic draft payments, if applicable. Every effort must be made to continue, without interruption, electronic payments on the Borrower’s Mortgage, to the extent permitted by applicable law. The notice may not amend the terms of a Mortgage other than those relating to where to send payments. The Master Servicer and any Servicing Agent must ensure that their staff and facilities are adequately prepared to process Servicing and accounting transactions and to respond to Borrower inquiries during the transfer transition period. The Servicing Agent or Master Servicer undertaking the performance of the Servicing obligations must assume responsibility for responding to Borrower inquiries received after the date of such undertaking. If any Servicing or accounting problem cannot be resolved without the involvement of the Servicer that was performing the Servicing obligations, the new Servicing Agent or Master Servicer undertaking the performance of the Servicing obligations, and not the Borrower, should initiate the contact with the prior Servicer. During the transfer transition period, the Servicers involved must make reasonable efforts to resolve disputes to the Borrowers’ satisfaction when such disputes arise from legitimate Borrower misunderstanding of instructions in the notices to the Borrower. Late charges must be waived and, if applicable, appropriate adjustments to payment and credit records made for misapplied or unapplied payments due to a payment received by the Servicer that was performing the Servicing obligation instead of the new Servicing Agent or Master Servicer undertaking the performance of the Servicing obligations. Within one day of receipt, the Servicer that was performing the Servicing obligations must deliver to the Servicing Agent or Master Servicer undertaking the performance of the Servicing obligations any funds for, or correspondence regarding, any of the Mortgages and REO related to the transfer that are received on or after the date the Servicing Agent or Master Servicer undertakes the performance of the Servicing obligations.
Operationalizing Freddie Mac Single-Family Seller/Servicer Guide 8102.2 — Obligations upon termination or expiration of Subservicing Agreement
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.
