LOAN SERVICING
Section 22.25 - Property Inspections

Servicer must inspect each mortgaged property at least once every three years. The scope of the inspection must cover the maintenance of the property, and the general condition of the neighborhood. Entry to the dwelling is not necessary during a routine property inspection. The inspector should pay special attention to the exterior of the dwelling for items that are in disrepair and can ultimately affect the value of the property. In the event there are items found to be in disrepair, the Servicer shall contact the Borrower in writing advising him of the suggested repairs that should be made. A record of the property inspection must be contained in the Servicer's Loan File.
