Frequently
Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can
my loan be sold? What happens if my lender goes out of business?
Yes,
your loan can be sold at any time. There is a secondary mortgage
market in which lenders buy and sell pools of mortgages and results in
lower rates for consumers. A lender buying your loan assumes all terms
and conditions of the original loan and the only thing that changes
when a loan is sold is to whom you mail your payment. If your loan has
been sold, your lender will notify you that it has been sold, who your
new lender is, and where you should send your payments.
If
your lender goes out of business, you�re required to continue to
make payments. Loans owned by a lender going out of business are
usually sold to another lender. The lender purchasing your loan is
obligated to honor the terms and conditions of the original loan. In
some cases, there may be a gap between the date of your lender's going
out of business and the date that a new lender purchases your loan. If
so, continue making payments to your old lender until you are asked to
make payments to your new lender.
