Question 3

a

What happens now?

The most important information to know is the Transfer Date, or day that your loan is transferred to Rushmore’s servicing system. The letter you received from your prior mortgage servicer includes this date. If you did not receive the letter, you can contact your prior servicer to get the transfer date. You will also receive a letter from Rushmore on or just before your transfer date with information including your loan number and transfer date as well as a payment coupon. For 5 to 7 business days following your transfer date, your loan information is being reviewed and verified. Once the verification is complete, your loan will be accessible through our automated voice response system and on our web-site at www.rushmorelm.com. In the interim, this helpful FAQ will help you understand the transfer timeline and options for making your next mortgage payment.

Question 4

a

How and when do I make my mortgage payment to Rushmore Loan Management?

There are a few options: If you have already received an introductory letter from Rushmore, you can use the interim payment coupon provided. If you have not received the letter and payment coupon, you can mail the payment to: Rushmore Loan Management Services at P.O. Box 514707 Los Angeles, CA 90051-4707. Please include your prior servicer’s loan number on your check or money order. If you already sent your payment to your prior servicer, that’s okay, as your prior servicer will forward your payment to Rushmore and the payment will be applied to your account. This could take a couple of weeks – but rest assured you will not receive a late charge as a result of this process.

Question 5

a

What happens to the ACH or automatic payment I had with my prior servicer?

If you were set up for monthly automatic draft payment (ACH) or monthly online bill payment with your prior servicer, your drafts will not automatically transfer to Rushmore.

If you have a scheduled payment due before you set up your recurring payment process, you can mail a payment to: Rushmore Loan Management Services at P.O. Box 514707 Los Angeles, CA 90051-4707.

Question 10

My mortgage just transferred to Rushmore; do I need to contact my insurance company?

While your prior servicer will notify your insurance carrier of the transfer, it is highly recommended that you confirm your carrier has been properly notified. In the event they did not receive notification, please ask your insurance carrier to change the mortgagee clause to: Rushmore Loan Management Services LLC, its successors and/or assigns ATIMA PO Box 692409 San Antonio, TX 78269-2409 Note: Please make sure your Rushmore loan number is included on any insurance documents sent to Rushmore.

It is possible that in the future, your loan may be transferred to another servicer. That decision will be made by the owner of your loan. If the servicing of your loan is transferred again, you will receive written notification.

Question 12

a

What type of property insurance is required?

You are required to obtain and maintain a fire (hazard) policy. If the home is non-owner occupied, this type of policy may also be referred to as a landlord’s or commercial policy. If your fire (hazard) policy specifically excludes windstorm damage, you are required to obtain a separate windstorm damage policy. If your property is in Puerto Rico, you are required to obtain and maintain earthquake insurance. Although earthquake insurance is not required outside of Puerto Rico, you may want to consider obtaining this coverage in some locations. If any structure is located in a Special Flood Hazard Area as identified by FEMA, you are also required to obtain and maintain flood insurance. If the home is a condominium or town home, please check with your homeowners association to verify what type of coverage the association’s policy provides.

Question 13

a

Who should be named as Loss Payee (Mortgagee) on my policy, and where should I mail a copy of my policy?

Make sure your policy shows the following Loss Payee (Mortgagee): RUSHMORE LOAN MANAGEMENT SERVICES ITS SUCCESSORS AND/OR ASSIGNS ATIMA Mail a copy of your policy to: PO Box 692409, San Antonio, TX 78269-2409. Please include your account number. You can also update your account online by providing your current insurance information at www.imcovered.com/rushmorelm.

Question 14

a

What amount of property insurance coverage is required?

Your basic insurance coverage must be equal to the lesser of the outstanding loan balance, the replacement value of the structure or the maximum amount allowed by law in the state where your property is located.

Question 15

a

Do I need to send Rushmore a copy of my property tax bill?

No. Rushmore contacts the property tax assessment offices directly to obtain annual tax information. There are specific tax agencies that require a homeowner authorization form be signed by the customer. If any authorization is needed, Rushmore will send you a written request.

Question 16

a

Why did I receive a letter stating I need to provide a receipt for taxes paid?

When Rushmore receives information from the taxing authority that your taxes are past due, we send a letter requesting proof of payment. If you have already paid your taxes, please mail proof of payment to Rushmore at:Rushmore Loan Management Services LLC P.O. Box 961233, Ft. Worth, TX 76161-0233

Question 18

a

What should I do if I receive a tax bill?

Rushmore contacts the property tax assessment offices directly to obtain annual tax information so you do not need to send those to us. There are specific tax agencies that require a homeowner authorization form be signed by the customer. If any authorization is needed, Rushmore will send you a written request.

Question 19

a

How do I know if my taxes have been paid?

This information is included in your billing statement and is available through our website. Go to “Manage My Account” and select “Account Login.” Once you have logged in, select “Loan Activity.” Also you will receive a very detailed annual escrow analysis statement that will show, among other items, moneys collected, disbursements made, and anticipated disbursements for the coming year.

Question 20

a

What is an Interest Rate Cap?

An interest rate cap limits the amount your interest rate can change at each adjustment. There can be two types of caps: Periodic Change caps, which limit the amount the rate may increase or decrease at each change; or Life of Loan caps, which specify the highest or lowest that your interest rate can be over the life of the loan.

Question 21

a

What is negative amortization?

Negative Amortization occurs when your monthly payments do not cover all the interest owed. The interest that is not paid in the monthly payment is added to your principal loan balance. This means that even after making many payments, you could owe more than you did at the beginning of the loan. Negative amortization can occur when an ARM has a payment cap that results in monthly payments that are not high enough to cover the interest due or when the minimum payments are set at an amount lower than the amount you owe in interest.

Question 22

a

What is an Adjustable Rate Mortgage (ARM)?

An adjustable rate mortgage is a loan in which the interest rate in the note can change periodically. The interest rate changes at certain defined points during the life of the loan, based on changes to an index.

Question 23

a

How is the interest rate calculated on an ARM loan?

The interest rates for ARMs are calculated based on an index rate plus a margin. ARM loans typically calculate the interest rate on adjustment by adding a margin to a specific published index, such as the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) Index. The value of the index changes periodically, going up or down over time. Changes to the index value may cause changes in your interest rate. The margin that will be added to that index rate is stated in your ARM note.

Question 24

a

How am I notified of my ARM changes?

You will receive notification by mail approximately 210 to 240 days prior to the effective date of the initial interest rate change. This notice will contain an estimate of your new interest rate and payment amount. You will also receive a notice between 60 and 120 days prior to the effective date of the initial interest rate change. This notice will contain your exact interest rate. Going forward, you will receive an interest rate change notice between 60 and 120 days prior to the effective date of each interest rate change throughout the life of your loan.

Question 25

a

What is the ARM Adjustment Period?

With most ARMs, there is an initial period when your interest rate is fixed, after which the loan interest will begin to adjust periodically. Your interest rate will be recalculated at designated “Change Dates”, which may be monthly, quarterly, yearly, or multi-year periods. The period between each rate change is called the adjustment period. If the interest rate changes, your total monthly payment generally will also change.

Question 26

a

Why did the amount of my escrow payments go up?

Escrow payment amounts may increase if there is a shortage of funds in your escrow account. Some of the most common reasons for escrow shortages are: 1) An increase in the amount of your annual property taxes; 2) An increase in your annual insurance premium; or 3) the actual tax or insurance payment from escrow differs from the original estimate. If you have questions about an increase in your property taxes or homeowner’s insurance premiums, please contact your local taxing authority or insurance agent, respectively. They are the best source of information to explain changes in your bill.

Question 27

a

What is an escrow account?

An escrow account is a special account dedicated to covering the costs for:

Real estate taxes
Homeowner’s (hazard) insurance
Mortgage insurance, if applicable
Catastrophe (wind) insurance, if required
Flood insurance, if required

While escrow accounts generally include escrows for both taxes and insurance, in some cases, escrow accounts only cover property taxes. If you have an escrowed loan, part of your monthly loan payment is put into your escrow account. During the year, Rushmore takes payments from the escrow account to pay your current taxes and, if applicable, your homeowner’s insurance premiums as they become due and payable.

Question 28

a

How do I set up an escrow account for my property taxes and insurance?

Please feel free to contact our Customer Service Department for requirements on how to set up an escrow account by calling toll-free at 888-504-6700.

If your loan is owned by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, you may reach customer service for your loan by calling, toll-free, (888) 616-5400, Monday – Thursday from 6:00 AM to 7:00 PM, or Friday from 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM (all times PT).

Question 29

a

Is an initial deposit required to establish an escrow account?

There is no fee required to establish an escrow account with Rushmore; however, a deposit for the purpose of creating an initial balance in your escrow account will be required. Over the first 12 months that your escrow account is active, Rushmore will collect a deposit in 12 equal payments. This amount is in addition to what is collected to pay all installments of taxes and/or insurance premiums to be paid from your escrow account.

Question 30

a

What part of my payment is being applied to my escrow account?

The amount applied to your escrow account each month is determined by the amount needed to pay your taxes and/or insurance on an annual basis. This amount will change only when the amount needed to pay these items either increases or decreases, or the scheduled payment for the last year has not been met. You can find the amount of your escrow payment listed on your monthly billing statement or by visiting the “Escrow Information” section of this web site.

Question 31

a

How do I find out the balance of my escrow account?

You can check your account information through our website. Go to “Manage My Account” and select “Account Login”.

Question 33

a

What happens if a there is a shortage in my escrow account?

If your escrow account balance is less than the required amount needed at the time of your analysis, it may have a projected shortage. Your escrow shortage is automatically spread over a 12-month period and included in your monthly payment. You do, however, have the option to pay the shortage in full. If you choose to pay the escrow shortage, your monthly mortgage payment will be adjusted to reflect the payment. When remitting the payment, be sure to indicate that the purpose is to pay the shortage, to ensure it is applied correctly. If you believe the shortage amount is incorrect please compare the anticipated escrow disbursement amounts for those items escrowed according to your statement with your annual tax bill and/or insurance renewal to ensure the amounts are correct.

Question 34

a

Can I pay my escrow shortage online?

Currently, that option is not available, but watch for our website enhancement notifications in the future.

Question 35

a

My escrow account has too much money in it. Will I receive a refund?

If your loan is current and your Escrow account has a surplus of $50.00 or greater, you will receive a check in the mail within 15 business days after the annual analysis statement. Surpluses under $50.00 will be retained in the escrow account and used to reduce your escrow payments for the coming year.

Question 36

a

How do I request a copy of my escrow account analysis statement?

You can either use the “Contact Us” feature on our website to send us your request, or you can contact Customer Service toll-free at 888-504-6700 Monday – Thursday from 6:00 am to 7:00 pm or Friday from 6:00 am to 6:00 pm (all times PT).

Question 38

a

If you have an escrow account for the payment of property taxes, please send your tax bill to us at: Rushmore Loan Management Services LLC, P.O. Box 961233 Ft. Worth, TX 76161-0233

Question 39

a

What is an escrow cushion?

The maximum allowable cushion is equal to two monthly escrow deposits unless otherwise required by state law.
