 Federal National Mortgage Association - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In 1968, the Federal National Mortgage Association was partitioned into two separate entities—one wholly owned by the government and known as the Government National Mortgage Association (Ginnie Mae), and the other to retain the name Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae).
The largest mortgage originator in the United States is Countrywide Financial, which is an almost exclusive Fannie Mae partner, although they have sold small amounts to GSE competitors.
This secondary mortgage market helps to replenish the supply of lendable money for mortgages and ensures that money continues to be available for new home purchases.

Fannie Mae—along with Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae (Government National Mortgage Association, GNMA)—accomplish this task by creating a bridge between the primary mortgage market of lenders and borrowers and the secondary mortgage market of financial investors.
Mortgage lenders who sell their loans to Fannie Mae are able to approve and fund more mortgage loans, which in turn are sold to Fannie Mae.
If a mortgage lender is unable to sell a loan to Fannie Mae or other agency, it often must keep that loan in its portfolio (thereby assuming all the risk) or sell it at a loss through other financial institutions.

 FNMA APPRAISAL GUIDELINES, Federal National Mortgage Association Real Estate Appraisal Guidelines.
However, federal law prohibits a lender from selecting or hiring an appraiser based solely on the appraiser's membership in any particular appraisal organization or from not hiring an appraiser based solely on his or her lack of membership in any organization.
When this is the case, a mortgage secured by a property in that district will not be eligible for delivery to us -- at least until such time as an active market develops that will enable the appraiser to demonstrate the value and marketability of the subject property.
When a new appraisal is required for a mortgage that a lender delivers to us, the lender warrants that the property has been appraised by a state-licensed or -certified appraiser.

 HUD's Housing Goals for the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) for the Years 2005-2008 and Amendments to HUD's R
However, the GSEs' mortgage purchases have generally lagged, and not led, the overall primary market in providing financing for affordable housing to low- and moderate-income families and underserved borrowers and their neighborhoods, indicating that there is more that the GSEs can do to improve their performance.
Considering all mortgage originations (both government and conventional) between 1999 and 2001, it is estimated that the GSEs purchased only 14 percent of all loans originated for African-American and Hispanic first-time homebuyers, or one-third of their share (42 percent) of all home purchase loans originated during that period.
One banking trade association advocated continuation of a county-based definition, stating that because the business perspective of community banks in rural areas is geared toward entire counties, there would be costs associated with monitoring the tract location of loans, and therefore, marketing toward borrowers at the tract level would be difficult.

 Federal National Mortgage Association v. U.S.
            Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”) filed this tax refund action to recover overpayment interest, invoking a statutory “Special Rule” that permits taxpayers to request retroactive application of an Internal Revenue Code provision requiring the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) to apply a zero net interest rate to overlapping periods of mutual taxpayer and IRS indebtedness.
            Formerly a federal government agency, FNMA is a private, for-profit entity that provides liquidity for mortgage investments.
United States, 272 U.S. FNMA contends that sovereign immunity principles are irrelevant here because the special rule concerns only the rate at which the government pays overpayment interest (i.e., the usual rate or a higher rate such that the net rate for the overlap period is zero), not whether it pays interest at all.

However, a few lenders countered the complaints, saying that they must use "a totally different book" from regular homes to assess the value and mortgage loan rate when it comes to manufactured homes.
