Loan Refinancing Assistance Pilot Project 

Summary Guidelines

1. Program Overview The Loan Refinancing Assistance Pilot Project will target five 

Oregon counties hit hard by the housing crisis to provide 

assistance to homeowners with negative equity mortgages, who 

have recovered from unemployment, underemployment or 

financial distress and show the capability to pay a mortgage 

payment based on a principal amount reflective of the current 

market value of the home. There are two structures that will be 

utilized to accomplish the refinance, depending on restrictions 

affecting the loan holder. 

Loan Purchase Structure: Under the Loan Purchase Structure, 

OAHAC, after review and approval by Oregon Housing and 

Community Services (OHCS), will provide funding for the 

purchase of loans on behalf of homeowners. All as part of one 

concurrent and seamless transaction, the loan will be purchased in 

accordance with a funding agreement with OAHAC, for a price 

that is at or below the current appraised value and at least 10 

percent below the current unpaid principal balance of the loan. A 

new, affordable loan based on a principal amount equal to or 

lesser than the home’s current appraised value will be originated. 

Short Sale Structure: The Short Sale Structure will be utilized in 

the event the holder of the loan is subject to certain restrictions, 

operationally and/or legally, with respect to a loan sale 

transaction. In this scenario, OAHAC will utilize its contractor, 

Further 2 Development LLC (“Further”), to facilitate a short sale. 

All as part of one concurrent and seamless transaction, the home 

will be sold to Further for a price that is at or below the current 

appraised value and at least 10% below the current unpaid 

principal balance of the loan. Title to the home will be 

transferred to Further and then back to the homeowner through a 

newly originated affordable loan for the homeowner at a principal 

amount equal to or lesser than the home’s current appraised value. 

That new loan will be assigned to OHCS, in accordance with a 

funding agreement with OAHAC. 

The end result will be the same under either structure: the 

homeowner remains in the home with a new, affordable loan. 
 B-11 

Doc#: US1:8788949v1 

34. Program Goals The Loan Refinancing Assistance Pilot Project’s goals are to

the home. 

The new loan cannot have a debt-to-income ratio in which PITIA 

is greater than 35 percent of total income and total household debt 

is greater than 45 percent of total income. Exceptions to the 

maximum debt-to-income ratio may be considered based on the 

borrower’s creditworthiness.

the price of the loan by at least 10 percent of the current unpaid 

principal balance.

interest rate (to be set by OAHAC and applied uniformly for all 

borrowers) and the loan amount will be set at an amount equal to 

or less than the current appraised value of the home. 

The Pilot is envisioned as a revolving fund and OHCS, OAHAC, 

Further or another approved entity may arrange for take-out 

financing or sell the loan and revolve the funding directly back to 

OAHAC until December 31, 2017, for the purpose of funding 

other Loan Refinance Assistance Pilot Project transactions. All 

repayments and profits after December 31, 2017, if any, will be 

returned to Treasury.

41. Per Household 

Assistance 

We anticipate revolving funds in order to achieve an average per 

household assistance amount of approximately $30,000 by 

December 2017. The per transaction cost will be higher as it does 

not account for the revolving of the program funds.

The borrower’s first-lien mortgage cannot be owned or 

guaranteed by Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae.

55. Structure of 

Assistance 

The Program is envisioned to fund a new loan to the homeowner 

without providing any principal reduction or principal 

forgiveness. The loans would be securitized or sold no later than 

December 2017. 

Funding from the Program will be structured in one of two ways: 

1. a new 15-year loan at 4% 

2. a new 30-year loan at 5% 

It is the expectation that OHCS will sell or refinance these loans 

at some point before December, 2017. OHCS will work with 

Treasury to determine the appropriate disposition for these loans 

before that date. The Program may recycle recovered funds in 

order to provide additional program assistance until December 31, 
 B-16 

2017, at which time any recovered funds will be returned to 

Treasury. Recovered funds may also be used to cover costs 

associated with the management of the portfolio until 

December 31, 2017. 

56. Per Household 

Assistance 

The initial average household assistance amount is estimated to 

be $200,000. Following repayment, refinance; or sale of the 

portfolio, including interest received on the portfolio; estimated 

household assistance amount could be as low as $5,000 to 

$15,000. Revolving the portfolio at a favorable price before 

December 2017 will provide program funds that may be revolved 

to help additional homeowners. 

57. Duration of Assistance Assistance will be provided in a one-time transaction to close the 

new affordable loan. 

58. Estimated Number of 

Participating 

Households 

It is estimated that 50 homeowners will receive assistance. If the 

portfolio could be revolved at a favorable price before December 

2017, program funds could be revolved to help additional 

homeowners 

59. Program Inception/ 

Duration 

The Program is estimated to begin in April 2013 and is expected 

to last until June 2015.
