Our special operations unit is designed to bring down high defaults and claims, reflected in a high Compare Ratio. Through a structured program, the Compare Ratio Task Force®, we gradually work to diminish high compare ratios, HUD’s statistic that reflects a lender’s default and claims experience.
When a Compare Ratio is above 150: HUD begins a due diligence process to review the mortgagee’s default and claims experience.
When a Compare Ratio is 200 or more: the mortgagee is subject to possible disciplinary review, termination of underwriting authority, and loss of FHA mortgagee approval.
