    Specialized mortgage attributes and delinquency handling.

    Updated 8/14/2025 · 1 min read

    Housing specifics

    Include mortgage-specific identifiers where applicable. Ensure delinquency and loss-mitigation programs are represented consistently to avoid misleading consumer reports.

    Loss mitigation

    Represent forbearance or trial modifications clearly so payment expectations and past-due do not conflict with status. Coordinate with investors/insurers on required attributes.

    Servicer transfers

    Use K1/K2 and, if needed, L1 to preserve continuity across transfers. Avoid double-reporting the same obligation under two servicers during a handoff month.
