- A. Scope, timing and format of QC Reviews.
- QC audits or reviews of the Lender’s MAP operation are to be performed annually. The review must be a written, self-contained analysis prepared by a competent, knowledgeable and properly licensed professional and should be sufficient in scope to enable the Lender to evaluate the performance of its MAP operation and its compliance with MAP program requirements. The review should provide an independent evaluation of the MAP Lender’s origination, underwriting, closing, construction loan administration and loan servicing processes and procedures. The reviews must document whatever deficiencies are found, as well as any significant oversights and/or deficiencies in loan servicing which are found as a result of problem loan reviews. The scope of a QC review should be expanded where instances of alleged misrepresentation or fraudulent activities by the Borrower team, or patterns of serious deficiencies in the Lender’s underwriting, construction loan administration or loan servicing, are identified. The annual QC review must also address the following:
Track all MAP loans presented by individual loan originators and Underwriters.
- Evaluate the Lender’s overall QC Plan for adequacy and the Lender’s operation for compliance with its QC Plan.
Perform audits of individual loan transactions.
The appraisal review must be prepared by a Certified General Appraiser who is competent and licensed in the appropriate jurisdiction and must be prepared to USPAP review standards.
Cost/architectural reviewers must meet MAP experience requirements found in the Guide. The underwriting and cost/A&E and loan servicing reviews should contain sufficient information to ascertain the level of analysis performed and the conclusions reached by the reviewer.
The underwriting review must provide sufficient documentation to confirm that the reviewer has evaluated the Underwriter’s analysis of the project strengths, weaknesses, risks and mitigants in all technical areas, as well as an overall assessment.
