FHFA Under Pressure to Maintain Status Quo on GSE Loan Limits

October 11, 2013
The Federal Housing Finance Agency holds the keys to the Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac loan limit kingdom, but it’s giving no clues – or interviews – as to where it’s headed on the issue. Meanwhile, pressure is mounting on the regulator to do nothing. As far as the mortgage industry is concerned, it knows a change is coming and hopes that when FHFA finally lowers the current high-cost limit of $625,500 the implementation date will come deep into the second quarter of 2014, or at the very least, March 31.
