Home Affordable Foreclosure Alternatives (HAFA)

In processing loans under HAFA, mortgage servicers are instructed to use any existing delegation agreements for short sales. If no short sale delegation authority exists or if the mortgage servicer is unsure if delegated authority exists, requests should be submitted to United Guaranty for review. Upon receipt of all pertinent information, United Guaranty will try to respond within 48 hours. Please note: this information is intended for use by mortgage servicers only. It does not apply to individual borrowers or consumers.
