The CFPB plans to issue a servicing rule in August and is considering revisions to ATR/QM requirements. Both HUD and VA have a long list of rulemaking plans, while FHFA’s regulatory agenda is more limited.
A lawsuit seeks to block a new CFPB rule loosening anti-discrimination regulations; FHA will continue to use the tri-merge credit pull process; bill passed by House would increase fees on VA home loans to pay for expanded benefits for veterans; delinquencies stay firm in April.
Despite the decline, the delinquency rate at the end of March was above the level seen in March 2025. Some of the increase has been pinned on FHA loss-mitigation changes, though foreclosure activity is also rising. (Includes two data tables.)
