The purchase transaction was an arms-length transaction.
The transaction is documented by the HUD-1, which confirms that no mortgage
financing was used to obtain the subject property. A recorded trustee’s deed (or similar
alternative) confirming the amount paid by the grantee to trustee may be substituted for a
HUD-1 if a HUD-1 was not provided to the purchaser at time of sale.

Hazard Insurance: Section A
Each borrower has the right to select his or her own insurance carrier to provide hazard insurance
for the secured property, provided that the insurance policy and coverage meet CMG’s
requirements. The Correspondent must ensure that the insurance carrier, policy, and coverage
meet CMG’s requirements. In some cases, CMG may require additional coverage or consider
coverage that differs from these requirements.
Unless CMG has approved alternative arrangements in advance, the hazard insurance policy for
a property securing any first mortgage – including blanket policies for condos, co-ops, and PUDs
– must be written by a carrier that meets the following rating requirements. The carrier only
needs to meet only one of the following rating categories, even if it is rated by more than one
agency:
Carriers rated by the A.M. Best Company, Inc. must have either:
o a “B” or better Financial Strength Rating in Best’s Insurance Reports or
o an “A” or better Financial Strength Rating and a Financial Size Category of “VIII” or
greater in Best’s Insurance Reports Non-US Edition.
Carriers providing coverage for co-op projects must have a general policyholder’s rating of “A”
and a Financial Size Category of “V” in Best’s Insurance Reports.
Carriers rated by Demotech, Inc. must have an “A” or better rating in Demotech’s Hazard
Insurance Financial Stability Ratings.
Carriers rated by Standard and Poor’s must have a “BBB” or better Insurer Financial
Strength Rating in Standard and Poor’s Ratings Direct Insurance Service.
Policies underwritten by a state’s Fair Access to Insurance Requirements (FAIR) plan, if
it is the only coverage that can be obtained;
Policies obtained through state insurance plans – such as the Hawaii Property Insurance
Association (HPIA), Florida’s Citizens Property Insurance Corporation, or other state-
mandated windstorm and beach erosion insurance pools – if that is the only coverage that
is available; and
A separate hurricane insurance policy issued by the Hawaiian Hurricane Relief Fund (for
properties in Hawaii), as long as the companion non-catastrophic fire and extended
coverage (or homeowner’s) policy is obtained from a hazard insurer that satisfies CMG’s
rating criteria.
The Mortgagee Clause on Hazard Insurance Transfer Letter must read:

Hazard Insurance: Section B
The Insurance Company issuing the policy must meet Fannie Mae guidelines. The insurance
company must be authorized by law or licensed by the jurisdiction to transact business within the
state where the subject property is located.
The mortgaged property and all improvements thereon are insured against loss by fire and other
such hazards as are customary in the area where the mortgaged property is located. Such
coverage shall contain fire and hazard insurance policy with extended coverage. The following
is a review of some of the requirements.
The coverage under such policy shall be at least equal to the greater of the outstanding principal
balance of the mortgage loan, 80% of the insurable value of the improvements as long as that
value equals the replacement cost of the improvements with a replacement cost guarantee
endorsement, or an amount sufficient to prevent the borrower or loss payee from becoming a
coinsurer (however, under no circumstances shall the amount of insurance required exceed that
amount allowed by law).
Hazard insurance policies that include optional coverage that is not required by CMG are
acceptable, provided that CMG is not obligated to renew any part of the coverage that they do
not require.
At the time of Closing Package submission, the Seller must provide either a hazard insurance
binder with a paid receipt for one full year’s premium paying in advance, or the final hazard
insurance policy evidencing coverage is paid in full or no payment is due.
Refinance transactions do not need to be paid for one full year but the next premium due date
may not occur for at least 90 days from the date of closing.
Upon purchase the Correspondent is required to send a change of loss payee to the insurance
company. The Correspondent must be prepared to provide evidence the request was sent to
insurance company if required. An updated Hazard Insurance policy listing CMG Mortgage,
Inc., dba CMG Financial, its successors and or assigns must be received within 90 days of
purchase.

Condominiums and attached PUDs require a master or blanket policy covering the project, and a
certificate of insurance for each individual unit secured by the loan sold to CMG Financial.
Contents only HO‐6 policies for at least 20% of the value of the property must be obtained by
borrower or evidenced in master hazard policy for project and be paid through escrow or
collected with impounds if required.
PUD units covered under the project’s blanket policy must be allowed in the homeowner’s
association documents and under the blanket insurance policy. The HOA Hazard Insurance
policy must contain the borrowers name and unit.
In addition, the homeowner association must maintain a policy that covers the common areas,
fixtures, equipment, personal property, and supplies of the project. Premiums with respect to
such policies should be considered a common expense of the related project.
Condominiums
The Certificate of Insurance policy must contain the borrower name and unit. An
individual hazard insurance policy is not required for a condominium unit. Seller must
verify that coverage of $1,000,000 is in force for the entire project before the mortgage
loan is delivered to Pacific Union Financial.
For attached PUDs and condominiums, the amount of hazard insurance coverage must be
at least equal to 100% of the insurable replacement costs of the project improvements,
including individual units. A hazard insurance policy that includes a guaranteed
replacement cost endorsement or a replacement cost endorsement satisfies.
Mortgage Insurance
Mortgage Insurance (MI) is required for all conventional loans with loan-to-value ratios
exceeding 80%. Seller may use MI companies, which are listed below as approved MI
companies. Coverage must meet current CMG Financial Program Guidelines in addition to
Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac requirements.

date.

taken to assure that the “security” on each loan is protected. A re-inspection or inspection will
be required on all properties located in the Federally Declared Disaster Areas if the value of the
property was determined prior to the date of the natural disaster. These requirements apply to all
loans regardless of processing style or appraisal requirements.

mortgage loan.

assignment to CMG Financial of Seller’s interest in such title insurance does not require the
consent of or notification to the insurer, and that such insurance policy is and will remain in full
force and effect and will insure to the benefit of CMG Financial and if CMG Financial assigns
upon the consummation of the transaction contemplated by the Agreement and any subsequent
assignments by CMG Financial
Seller warrants that no claims have been made under such title insurance policy and neither
Seller nor any prior holder of the mortgage has done anything which would impair the coverage
of such title insurance policy and that nothing contemplated in the Agreement, or any transfer to
CMG Financial, will impair the coverage of such title insurance policy. In the event that a
married borrower wishes to take title to the mortgaged property without his or her spouse, the
lien created by the mortgage must be superior to any interest in the mortgaged property the
spouse may have under the law or otherwise.

without applying for a mortgage loan.
