At least once per year, RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing Corporation will run an escrow analysis on your loan. This process is to ensure the correct amounts are collected for upcoming escrow disbursements. Your monthly contractual payment is subject to fluctuate if we expect changes in your disbursements from the prior year. 

Adding an escrow account to a loan allows RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing Corporation to manage tax and insurance disbursements. To start this process, please submit a written request via one of the options below:

Adding escrow to your mortgage loan will result in an increase in your monthly contractual payment, as RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing Corporation will now collect monthly for tax and/or insurance disbursements.

 

An escrow shortage indicates RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing Corporation reviewed your escrow account and determined there would not be sufficient funds to meet your minimum escrow balance  for the upcoming year. This requires an increase in your escrow deposits monthly. 

RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing Corporation will divide the shortage over 12 months and add the difference to the monthly mortgage payment.

Some customers choose to pay the shortage in one lump sum to avoid adding the difference to the monthly payment. If you choose to do this, then your payment will be updated in a single billing cycle.

 Note: homeowners repaying the escrow shortage in one lump sum is voluntary, it is not required.

 
Paying the shortage in full may not reduce the monthly payment amount. For example, an increase in homeowner’s insurance and/or tax amounts can increase the monthly amount collected for your escrow. The increased escrow amount is added to the monthly principal and interest, which affects the overall payment amount. In this instance, the increase is necessary to ensure proper disbursement of the next homeowner’s insurance and/or tax bill.   
If your escrow shortage is paid in full after the current billing statement is generated (see "statement date" on your bill), your payment change will be reflected on the following statement. 
An escrow overage occurs when RoundPoint reviews your escrow account, and determines we collected more than your escrow disbursements for the next year. If the escrow overage is greater than $50, RoundPoint will disburse the overage as an escrow refund to the mailing address on file. If the escrow overage is less than $50, the overage will be added to your monthly contractual payment as a temporary credit.
Review the escrow analysis statement that disclosed the overage. If anything doesn’t match your records or needs to be updated, then please let us know. Otherwise, yes, go ahead and cash it! The escrow overage is yours to keep .

Please note that requesting the removal of escrow does not guarantee removal. The following requirements must be met to be considered for escrow removal:
- The terms of the loan and applicable law must allow for escrow waiver. 
- The mortgage must not have received a loan modification.  
- The loan: 
* Must not have Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI). 
* Must not have been 30+ days delinquent in the 12-months preceding the request. 
* Must not have been 60+ days delinquent in the 24-months preceding the request. 

- The remaining principal balance must be less than 80% of the original appraised value. 
- Hazard insurance coverage must have been continuously maintained for the life of the loan; no history of Lender placed insurance may exist. The escrow account cannot have been instituted because of delinquent property taxes.
- The escrow account cannot have a negative balance.
- If escrow was previously waived, all payments must have been made timely, as required.
- If the loan is a high price or higher priced mortgage loan   (rare), at least 5-years from the date of origination must have passed.

RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing Corporation will continue to make disbursements from the escrow account, until your loan is paid in full. 
Foreclosure is the process by which a borrower in default under a mortgage is deprived of his or her interest in the property. In most cases in the contract you signed when you were loaned money to buy your house, you probably agreed that if you can’t repay the loan, the lender can foreclose to take ownership of the house. If you don’t pay your monthly mortgage payments, you are technically in default on your mortgage. State laws vary, but generally a loan that is as little as 90 days delinquent can be considered in foreclosure. Your lender may send you a notice indicating that they are starting foreclosure proceedings, but don’t wait; take steps to prevent a foreclosure as soon as you realize you are having trouble with payments.
This is not recommended. We would prefer that you remain in the property for as long as possible until the transaction can be completed to avoid any unnecessary damages to the property. You may qualify for a Deed-in-Lieu of Foreclosure. In order to make that determination, we will need you to submit a financial package to us for review.
The ultimate goal of the loss mitigation department is to avoid foreclosure. However, foreclosure action will continue until a final resolution has been determined and the resulting transaction has been completed. A foreclosure sale can be postponed if necessary to allow enough time to complete the transaction.
Yes, we will work with you all the way up to the foreclosure sale date, if necessary.

Click [here] to access the Insurance Claim Package, which includes all the details you need for getting your claim completed. 
Every situation is different, and numerous factors influence disbursement timeframes. Typically, if the insurance claim check is less than $40,000, the entire disbursement process may take 5-7 business days. On the contrary, if the insurance claim check is greater than $40,000, the initial installment is typically disbursed within 7-14 business days. Subsequent installments are released 5-7 business days after the inspection results are received. 
 

All checks need to be endorsed by the homeowner prior to sending to a lien holder.

If RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing Corporation is in the first lien position on the property (i.e., holds the first mortgage), signatures should first be obtained from all subordinate lien holders (e.g., second mortgage, third mortgage, etc.) prior to sending the insurance claim check to RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing Corporation for endorsement.

If RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing Corporation is in second lien position on the property (i.e., holds the second mortgage), RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing Corporation must endorse the insurance claim check prior to sending to the first lien holder (i.e., the servicer holding the first mortgage).

If RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing Corporation holds the only two (2) liens on the property (i.e., holds the first and second mortgage), the insurance claim check can be sent with only the homeowner(s)’ endorsement.

 

If you are affected by a natural disaster, call us immediately. There may be special disaster relief options available to help you. In the meantime, you may want to contact your insurance company and file a claim.

If your mortgage loan has an escrow account, RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing Corporation will obtain your property tax information directly from your taxing authority and ensure all property tax bills are paid by the due date. If your mortgage loan does not have an escrow account, you are responsible for paying these bills by the due date directly to your taxing authority.

A supplemental tax bill is a one-time bill generated by the taxing authority and sent directly to the homeowner. The bill is generated because of a mid-year assessment change by the County. Supplemental tax bills may also be referred to as an Added Assessment, Interim, or corrected bill. 
The homeowner is responsible for paying these bills directly to the taxing authority. Because supplemental tax bills are a one-time bill, they are not collected in the monthly escrow payment, included in the escrow account balance, or paid from the escrow account.

To be considered for workout options, please submit the following:

• A hardship letter explaining the situation that resulted in late or failed payments and any supporting documentation
• A completed Borrower’s Financial Information Form
• Copies of payroll statements for the last 30 days
• Proof of payment of most recent tax bill or current tax bill
• Copy of Homeowners Insurance Declaration page and proof of premium payment
• If self-employed, last two tax returns, and profit and loss statements

A personal representative will be assigned to review your request. After the initial review, we will contact you if we need any additional information.

Please submit the above information to this address:

There is no cost to you on most of our workout options; however, a portion of your delinquency may be requested as a good faith effort or to lower the total amount of the delinquency, making payments more affordable to you.
Special Forbearance
Upon qualification, we will work with you to temporarily suspend or reduce your mortgage payment for a specified period of time. This option will not bring your account current and other arrangements must be made at the end of the forbearance period.

Mortgage Modification
A mortgage modification is a permanent written agreement between you and RoundPoint that changes one or more of the original terms of the loan such as the interest rate, monthly payment, maturity date, or principal balance. This is determined after thoroughly reviewing your financial information. This option allows you to bring your account current and prevent your home from going to foreclosure sale.

Repayment Plan
A repayment plan is an arrangement that gives you a fixed amount of time to bring the delinquent mortgage payments current by paying the normal monthly payment plus an additional amount. If all scheduled repayment payments are made as agreed, this will prevent your loan from going to foreclosure sale.

Deferment
A deferment is an option that reinstates your loan by converting all, or part of, your past-due amount to a non-interest bearing balance that is due and payable at the maturity date or payoff of your loan.

Refinance
We may be able to assist you with refinancing your loan. Many times refinancing can make your debt more manageable. Depending on your credit score, RoundPoint can assist in improving that score by establishing a strong pay pattern as you continually work to reduce other debt.

Collateral Based Resolutions
A collateral-based resolution is a workout option by which you work with your mortgage lender to relinquish ownership of the property without going through the foreclosure process. This is the option you can consider if you do not plan to stay in the property. Collateral-based resolutions are beneficial to you because: they reflect more positively on a credit report, help avoid any subsequent deficiency balances that you might otherwise owe on the debt, and eliminate additional financial commitments such as trustee interest (often owed when bankruptcy is filed).

Pre-foreclosure Sale
The pre-foreclosure sale option allows a borrower in default to sell the property and use the sale proceeds to satisfy the mortgage debt, even if the proceeds are less than the amount needed to pay the loan in full. This option is subject to approval by your lender, investor, and mortgage insurance company, if applicable.

Deed-In-Lieu of Foreclosure
Should all other workout options prove to be unsuccessful, we can consider deed-in-lieu. The Investor/Insurer may agree to accept the deed of the property in lieu of foreclosure, which may release you from all obligations under the mortgage.

Payments received by the previous servicer during the transfer of a loan, are sent to RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing Corporation as soon as possible. The process of receiving all loan documents and payments may take as many as 60 days following the effective date of transfer.
Trailing payments during the 60-day transition period, are not reported as late to the credit bureaus if the account is current at the time of transfer. Additionally, no late fees are incurred during this time.
RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing Corporation will cancel your auto-draft after your last payment is made, prior to the new servicer transfer. You will receive confirmation of your auto-draft cancellation as well. Please reach out to your new servicer to establish your new auto-draft.
During the first 60 days following a servicing transfer to RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing Corporation, no credit reporting will occur. This ensures credit will not be impacted if payments were made to the prior servicer, after the transfer to RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing Corporation. FDCPA regulations also prohibit credit reporting until after RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing Corporation has direct contact with the mortgagor(s).
Service Transfers are a common occurrence in the mortgage industry. There is nothing a customer does to cause a transfer.
Update your payment information

  • Your new servicer will begin accepting payments after the transfer date.
  • Visit Servicing Digital to complete such action

Disable any recurring payments to RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing Corporation

  • If you're enrolled with us to have your monthly mortgage payment automatically debited from your bank account, this service will end when the transfer occurs. We will draft any payment you have already scheduled on or before the transfer date, but any payments scheduled after that date will NOT draft. If you use your bank’s automatic Bill Pay service, please make sure to update it with information for your new servicer.

Transfer your optional insurance coverage

  • Important note about insurance: If you have mortgage life or disability insurance, or any other type of optional insurance, the transfer of servicing rights may affect your coverage. This may put you are at risk of your policy being cancelled. To discuss options for maintaining your optional insurance coverage, please contact your provider directly.

The only thing that changes during a service transfer is who manages the loan:

  • Who you make your payments to
  • Who manages your escrow
  • Who manages all your questions/account concerns

Please be assured the transfer of your mortgage loan does NOT affect any term or condition of the mortgage agreement. However, the transfer could impact fees charged by the new servicer to perform certain activities, such as fees to process payments and/or to set up automatic payments to be drafted from your bank account.

Credit protections were put in place as a result of the COVID-19 National Emergency declared in late March 2020. Loans that were delinquent in Feb 2020 were protected during the March 2020 credit cycle and subsequent months. 
Loans enrolled in a Loss Mitigation plan will remain protected for the duration of that plan. Loans that exit Loss Mitigation, and are still delinquent, will report as delinquent 60 days after the Loss Mitigation plan expired.
Credit protections will end 4/30/2022.
If your loan was or became current during the COVID-19 National Emergency, your loan was reported as such to the Credit Reporting Agencies.

If you were current in early 2020, then enrolled in a COVID-19 protection plan after the National Emergency was declared, your loan was reported as CURRENT, and details about the workout plan were excluded to ensure your credit report was not negatively impacted.
RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing Corporation reported contractually delinquent loans as current if the loan was enrolled a COVID-19 Forbearance protection plan.  When the Forbearance plan expired, if a Deferral was completed, the account was restored to a current status.

For delinquent loans NOT enrolled in a COVID-19 protection plan, negative reporting to Credit Reporting Agencies was suppressed in order to ensure your credit report was not negatively impacted.
