SUMMARY:  In accordance with the requirements of the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended, 5 U.S.C. 552a (Privacy Act), the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) is reissuing the system of records entitled ‘‘National Mortgage Database Project’’ (FHFA–21).  FHFA is re-issuing this notice in response to comments received on the Notice published on April 16, 2014 at 79 FR 21458.  In reissuing this notice, FHFA requests further comments on the below revisions to the existing system of records.

This revised system of records covers the National Mortgage Database Project (‘‘Project’’), which is comprised of three components: (1) The National Mortgage Database (‘‘NMDB’’); (2) the information used to create the NMDB but will not be contained within the NMDB; and (3) National Surveys of Mortgage Borrowers (‘‘Surveys’’). The Project is designed to satisfy the Congressionally-mandated requirements of section 1324(c) of the Federal Housing Enterprises Financial Safety and Soundness Act of 1992, as amended by the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008.  Under this statutory provision, FHFA must, through surveys of the mortgage market, collect information on the characteristics of individual mortgages, including those that are eligible for purchase by the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) as well as those that are not, and subprime and nontraditional mortgages, including information on the creditworthiness of those borrowers sufficient to determine whether they would have qualified for prime lending.
