A seller guide is a large document or collection of content, which includes all information related to originating or selling loans (doing business) with your organization. Similar titles may include wholesale, broker, correspondent, or TPO guide. Every organization with a wholesale channel generally has such a guide. They vary in scope from the comprehensive guides published by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to very minimalistic guides.
A Seller guide may contain:
- Seller’s eligibility & performance criteria
- Registration, pricing & delivery requirements
- Appraisal & property standards
- Representations & warranties
- Contractual requirements or related references
- Regulatory compliance requirements
- Product guides
Because product or program guides are integral to the wholesale channel, they are included within the seller guide table of contents, with the expectation that these guides exist and are either referenced (linked) or included directly within the guide. The approach selected will impact the seller guide development budget, with the referenced product guides being the least time intensive. Development of product or program guides is not included within the seller guide development, but may be undertaken as an additional project.
