This is why lawmakers are calling on Calabria to reconsider the adverse-market fee
In today’s Daily Download episode, HousingWire covers a plea from the nation’s lawmakers to Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Mark Calabria to rethink the adverse-market fee.
For some background on the story, here’s a summary of the article:
Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Mark Calabria took fire during Congressional testimony on Wednesday about the implementation of an adverse-market fee that’s expected to add about $1,400 to the cost of refinanced mortgages delivered to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac after Dec. 1.The need for the fee is based on recapitalizing the two mortgage financiers so they can be released from government conservatorship, Rep. Brad Sherman (D-CA) said during his questioning of Calabria. That’s a scenario that is unlikely to happen if former Vice President Joe Biden usurps President Donald Trump in the Nov. 3 election, as numerous national polls show him poised to do.
“Don’t institute the fee – wait until next year when a new Congress can look anew at whether we are going to recreate these agencies in a form that didn’t work last time, and if not, we don’t need the fees,” Sherman said, expressing a view echoed by several lawmakers during the session. Following the main story, HousingWire covers an announcement from the Federal Reserve that it anticipates mortgage rates will remain low through 2023, and an analysis from Pew Research Center that suggests more young adults are now living at home than during the Great Depression.
