Guidelines for Project Review

The purpose of this job aid is to provide additional information on data fields required in Loan Delivery when the property is secured by a unit in a condominium (condo), cooperative (co-op), or Planned Unit Development (PUD). For more information about project eligibility, visit the Condo, Co-op, and PUD Eligibility page on fanniemae.com.

For detailed instructions on how to perform other tasks, see the Loan Delivery User Guide, eLearning tutorials, or other job aids. If you do not have access to Loan Delivery and require it, please contact your Technology Manager administrator.

Use of Condo Project Manager™ (CPM™) can reduce the number of project fields required for condominium loans. CPM is a web-based system that centralizes and documents condo project reviews and supports Fannie Mae condo project acceptance guidelines. Use of CPM is required for all condo projects being reviewed under the Full Review Process, and for projects with a Fannie Mae Approval. For more information, visit the CPM Project ID job aid and Condo Project Manager page on fanniemae.com

Project Data for Delivery

When delivering a loan secured by a unit located in a condo, co-op, or PUD project, the seller must provide the project data below, as applicable. These fields are located in the Property Information section of the Loan Detail page within Loan Delivery.

In addition, the seller must provide any applicable special feature code(s) (SFCs), including those specified in the lender’s Master Agreement and in the Special Feature Codes document. For additional details, reference the Selling Guide.

Project Review Waived

Fannie Mae does not require a thorough project review for certain project types and transactions. Review the Fannie Mae Selling Guide for current eligibility.

When the project review is waived for condos or co-ops, select Project Type "V Project Review Waived" in Loan Delivery. When the project review is waived for PUDs, select either Established PUD or New PUD in Loan Delivery.

Identifying the Subject Property Unit Number

The property street address must contain sufficient information to distinguish the subject property from other units in the project.
