ACTION: Notice of proposed guidance; request for comments. AGENCY: The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) is proposing to issue a Guidance, ‘‘Guidance on Private Transfer Fee Covenants,’’ to the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae), the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) (collectively, the Enterprises), and the Federal Home Loan Banks (the Banks) that the entities it regulates should not deal in mortgages on properties encumbered by private transfer fee covenants. Such covenants appear adverse to liquidity, affordability and stability in the housing finance market and to financially safe and sound investments. This proposed Guidance would extend to mortgages and securities held by the Banks as investments or as collateral for advances and to mortgages and securities held or guaranteed by the Enterprises. DATES: Interested persons may submit comments on or before October 15, 2010. Comments: Submit comments to FHFA using any one of the following methods: • E-mail: regcomments@fhfa.gov.

Comments FHFA invites comment on all aspects of the proposed guidance, including comments on which actions by FHFA would be most appropriate to address the concerns posed by private transfer fees. The comment period will end on October 15, 2010. Copies of all comments will be posted on FHFA’s Internet Web site at https://www.fhfa.gov. In addition, copies of all comments received will be available for examination by the public on business days between the hours of 10 a.m. and 3 p.m., at the Federal Housing Finance Agency, Fourth Floor, 1700 G Street, NW., Washington, DC 20552.

Background Establishment of FHFA FHFA is an independent agency of the Federal Government and was established by the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 (HERA), Public Law 110–289, 122 Stat. 2654 to regulate and oversee the Enterprises and the Banks (collectively, the regulated entities). HERA amended the Federal Housing Enterprises Financial Safety and Soundness Act of 1992 (12 U.S.C. 4501 et seq.) (Safety and Soundness Act) and the Federal Home Loan Bank Act (12 U.S.C. 1421 through 1449) to enhance the authorities and PO 00000 Frm 00047 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 10/13/10 11/22/10 12/31/10 Reg./cert. and overnight mailing deadline Filing deadline 10/18/10 12/02/10 01/31/11 10/21/10 12/02/10 01/31/11 responsibilities of the new agency. FHFA’s regulatory mission is to ensure, among other things, that each of the regulated entities ‘‘operates in a safe and sound manner’’ and that their ‘‘operations and activities * * * foster liquid, efficient, competitive, and resilient national housing finance markets.’’ (12 U.S.C. 4513(a)(1)(B).) III. Federal Housing Finance Agency Guidance A private transfer fee covenant is attached to real property by the owner or another private party, frequently, the property developer, and provides for a transfer fee to be paid to an identified third party (such as the developer or its trustee) upon each resale of the property. The fee typically is stated as a percentage, such as one percent of the property’s sales price and often survives for a period of ninety-nine (99) years. FHFA has expressed concerns about private transfer fees in congressional testimony and in other public statements. FHFA is publishing this Notice in order to receive public comment on this proposed draft Guidance. Promoters of private transfer fees and their possible securitization argue that such fees are beneficial when used to fund project developments or to enhance community investments through homeowners associations or through affordable housing groups, environmental groups, or other charitable organizations. FHFA is concerned that such fees are used to fund purely private continuous streams of income for select market participants either directly or through securitized investment vehicles. Further, it is unclear that the fees, even if dedicated to homeowners associations, are proportional or related to the purposes for which the fees were to be collected. FHFA’s draft Guidance is based on the view that investments in mortgages on properties with private transfer fee covenants and securities designed to generate income from the fees are not acceptable for the regulated entities. FHFA’s draft Guidance does not distinguish between private transfer fee covenants which purport to render a benefit to the affected property and E:\FR\FM\16AUN1.SGM 16AUN1
