Effects of HARP 2.0 To Be Visible In Feb 2012
Servicers have been altering their operations to adjust the changes announced by the Federal Housing Finance Agency to HARP in October 2011. For the eligible borrowers certain things were eliminated e.g. loan-to-value ratio caps, upfront fees and warranty claims on the old loan file. When the HARP was launched in March 2009, about 0.8 million Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac borrowers could get their loans refinanced with lower rates. However, only about seven percent of these borrowers had loan-to-value ratio caps above 105%.
According to the Bank of America Merrill Lynch analysts, during the month of December, prepayments slowed and dropped by 6%. According to an analyst of Bank of America Merrill Lynch, they expected an uneventful month in January and February is to provide the first quick look into the prospects of HARP. There are rumors that the White House is going to launch another program in order to promote more refinancing.
According to an analyst at JPMorgan Chase, modifying all coupon stacks of mortgage-backed securities would violate the prospectus. For such an action, the loans need to be at the risk of default. As per the analyst, if a refinancing wave on GSE loans is started by the White House and everything is to be moved into a 4% mortgage, it would only give annual savings for borrowers of around $25 billion to $30 billion. He further added that this would only be a transfer of wealth from investors to borrowers – also that compared with overall economy, the dollar savings of such a move would be small. Theoretically, HARP 2.0 is going to resolve issues of many refinancing hurdles.
