The Jumbo-Conforming Spread: A Semiparametric Approach Abstract This paper estimates the jumbo-conforming spread using data from the Federal Housing Finance Board’s Monthly Interest Rate Survey from January 1993 to June 2007. Importantly, this paper augments the typical parametric approach by adding state-level foreclosure laws and ZIP-level demographic variables to the model, es- timating the effects of loan size and loan-to-value ratio on mortgage rates nonpara- metrically, and including geographic location as a control for some potentially un- observed borrower and market characteristics that might vary over geography, such as credit scores, debt-to-income ratios, and house price volatility.

  • Securitization and the Fixed-Rate Mortgage
    Federal Reserve Bank of New York Staff Reports Securitization and the Fixed-Rate Mortgage Andreas Fuster James Vickery Staff Report No. 594 January 2013 Revised June 2014 This paper presents preliminary findings and is being distributed to economists and other interested readers solely to stimulate discussion and elicit comments. The views expressed in this paper are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the position of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York or the Federal Reserve System. Any errors or omissions are the responsibility of the authors. Securitization and the Fixed-Rate Mortgage Andreas Fuster and James Vickery Federal Reserve Bank of New York Staff Reports, no. 594 January 2013; revised June 2014 JEL classification: E44, G18, G21 Abstract Fixed-rate mortgages (FRMs) dominate the U.S. mortgage market, with important consequences for monetary policy, household risk management, and financial stability. In this paper, we show that the share of FRMs is sharply lower when mortgages are difficult to securitize. Our analysis exploits plausibly exogenous variation in access to liquid securitization markets generated by a regulatory cutoff and time variation in private securitization activity. We interpret our findings as evidence that lenders are reluctant to retain the prepayment and interest rate risk embedded in FRMs. The form of securitization (private versus government-backed) has little effect on FRM supply during periods when private securitization markets are well-functioning. Key words: mortgage finance, securitization, regression discontinuity design, difference-in- differences _________________ Fuster, Vickery: Federal Reserve Bank of New York (e-mail: [email protected], [email protected]).

  • The Conforming Loan Limit
    The Conforming Loan Limit Updated August 2, 2013 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov RS22172 The Conforming Loan Limit Summary Congress is concerned with the pace of the recovery in the housing and mortgage markets. A series of laws starting with the Economic Stimulus Act of 2008 (ESA; P.L. 110-185) were designed to increase the availability and affordability of mortgages in “high-cost” areas. This concern about housing and mortgage markets is balanced by attention being paid to possible taxpayer financial risks and the desire to minimize government intervention in economic markets. Two congressionally chartered government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs), Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, provide liquidity to the mortgage market by purchasing residential mortgages from the original lenders and either reselling them as mortgage-backed securities to investors or holding them as investments in their own portfolios. Their charters include a ceiling on the size of loans the GSEs can buy. Since the end of FY2011 (September 30, 2011), the maximum limit in high-cost areas was reduced to $625,500 from $729,750. The current high-cost limit is calculated as 115% of the area median house price, but cannot exceed 150% of the national limit or $625,500. The limit in other areas of the nation remains unchanged since 2006 at $417,000. Securitization of mortgages that exceed the applicable limit—called non-conforming jumbo loans—is done by private financial institutions, although in the present financial environment virtually no jumbo mortgages are being securitized. GSE status allows Fannie and Freddie to issue debt at lower cost than other private firms; part of this subsidy is passed on to home buyers in the form of lower interest rates.

Scott Frame, Andreas Fuster, Joseph Tracy, and James Vickery Federal Reserve Bank of New York Staff Reports, no. 719 March 2015 JEL classification: G01, G21, H12 Abstract We describe and evaluate the measures taken by the U.S. government to rescue Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac in September 2008. We begin by outlining the business model of these two firms and their role in the U.S. housing finance system. Our focus then turns to the sources of financial distress that the firms experienced and the events that ultimately led the government to take action in an effort to stabilize housing and financial markets. We describe the various resolution options available to policymakers at the time and evaluate the success of the choice of conservatorship, and other actions taken, in terms of five objectives that we argue an optimal intervention would have fulfilled. We conclude that the decision to take the firms into conservatorship and invest public funds achieved its short-run goals of stabilizing mortgage markets and promoting financial stability during a period of extreme stress.
