them. Whether they come through our mortgage loan officers (LOs) or through one of our broker
partners, Sun West is committed to ensuring that they obtain a mortgage that is affordable and
fulfill HUD guidelines. For instance, in case of a refinance, we will analyze the mortgage
transaction to ensure that there is a positive benefit to borrowers by way of a reduction in
payment or they can receive cash(Cash Out Refinance) that can be used to consolidate debts or
for renovation of their home.
FHA (Federal Home Administration) programs are the most secure and easy because they are
secured by FHA. If borrower is from a veteran family then he/she may be able to take advantage
of VA benefits for a purchase loan or an interest rate reduction refinance program from the
Department of Veteran Affairs. For borrowers who meet certain maximum income limits in rural

Agriculture - Rural Development).

refinance options. There are a number of ways to approach an affordability analysis, and these
calculators allow you to assess the effects of different variables when buying a home.

Reverse Mortgage (HECM)


This special type of home loan lets homeowners convert a portion of his or her home equity into
cash providing for a secure financial future. Without selling the home, without giving up title, or
without taking on a new monthly payment senior homeowners have the benefit of maintaining a
lifestyle they have earned. The money from the reverse mortgage provides seniors with the
financial security they need to fully enjoy their retirement years.
Anyone aged 62 and older may choose to consider a reverse mortgage insured by the FHA as a
means to pay off a mortgage or convert the equity in their homes to a positive cash-flow. This
mortgage is also commonly referred to as the Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM,

13

Job Description
COMPANY: XL Dynamics India Pvt. Ltd.
POSITION: Pre-underwriter
TEAM: Pre-Underwriting

OBJECTIVE OF INCOME ANALYSIS

To verify income used to qualify the borrower for the mortgage is stable.
To verify two year income history of the borrower.
To detect employment gap.
To analyze the future trend of income.
To verify that income documents are within SWMC guidelines and follows
HUD guidelines.
To verify and validate source of income: business income, rental income,
pension income or social security income.

About income analysis for mortgage loans:


Mortgage underwriting in the United States is the process a lender uses to
determine if the risk of offering a mortgage loan to a particular borrower under
certain parameters is acceptable. Most of the risks and terms that underwriters
consider fall under the three Cs of underwriting: credit, capacity and collateral.
To help the underwriter assess the quality of the loan, banks and lenders
create guidelines and even computer models that analyze the various aspects of
the mortgage and provide recommendations regarding the risks involved.
However, it is always up to the underwriter to make the final decision on whether
to approve or decline a loan.

16

Jaipuria Institute of management, Noida

XL DYNAMICS INDIA PVT. LTD


Capacity refers to the borrowers ability to make the payments on the loan. To
determine this, the underwriter will analyze the borrowers employment, income,
their current debt and their assets.
While reviewing the borrowers employment, the underwriter must determine the
stability of the income. People who are employed by a company and earn hourly
wages pose the lowest risk. Self-employed borrowers pose the highest risk, since
they are typically responsible for the debt and well-being of the business in
addition to their personal responsibilities. Commission income also carries similar
risks in the stability of income because if for any reason the borrower fails to
produce business, it directly influences the amount of income produced. Usually if
self-employment or commission income is used to qualify for the mortgage, a two
year history of receiving that income is required. Although a bonus (sometime it is
indicated as "incentive pay" by many corporations) is part of the paystub income, a
two-year employer verification is also required.
Documentation of the income also varies depending on the type of income. Hourly
wage earners who have the lowest risks usually need to supply paystubs and W2 statements. However, self-employed, commissioned and those who collect rent
are required to provide tax returns (Schedule C, Schedule E and K-1). Retired
individuals are required to prove they are eligible for social security and document
the receipt of payments, while those who receive income via cash investments
must provide statements and determine the continuance of the income from those
payments. In short, the underwriter must determine and document that the income
and employment is stable enough to pay the mortgage in years to come.
Furthermore, underwriters evaluate the capacity to pay the loan using a
comparative method known as the debt-to-income ratio. This is calculated by
adding the monthly liabilities and obligations(mortgage payments, monthly credit
and loan payments, child support, alimony, etc.) and dividing it by the monthly
income. For an example, if a borrower has a $500 car payment, $100 in credit and
loan payments, pays $500 in child support and wants a mortgage with payments
$1,000 per month, her total monthly obligations is $2100. If she makes $5,000 a
month, her debt to income ratio is 42%. Typically the ratio must be below
anywhere from 32% for the most conservative loans to 65% for the most
aggressive loans.
17

Jaipuria Institute of management, Noida

XL DYNAMICS INDIA PVT. LTD


Assets are also considered when evaluating capacity. Borrowers who have an
abundance of liquid assets at the time of closing statistically have lower rates
of default on their mortgage. This is termed as reserves by the industry. For
example, with a total mortgage payment that is $1,000 a month and the borrower
has $3,000 left after paying the down payment and closing costs, the borrower has
three months reserves. Underwriters also look closely at bank statements for
incidences of NSF's (non-sufficient funds). If this happens regularly, this is a red
flag with the underwriter because this indicates that the borrower doesn't know
how to manage his or her finances.
When a borrower receives a gift for the down payment the assets need to be
verified. Any large deposits, in fact, showing on bank statements will require an
explanation from the borrower.
Furthermore, if the borrowers employment is interrupted for any reason, the
borrowers would have enough cash in reserve to pay their mortgage. The amount
of cash reserves is qualified by the number of payments the borrower can make on
his or her total housing expenditure (the total of the principal and interest
payment, taxes, insurance, homeowners insurance, mortgage insurance, and any
other applicable charges) before the reserves are completely exhausted. Often
lenders will require anywhere from two to twelve months of payments in reserve.
If a borrower is applying for an FHA (Federal Housing Administration), there are
no reserves required.
The most typical asset is a borrowers checking and savings account. Other sources
include
retirement
funds
(401K, Individual
Retirement
Account), investments (stocks, mutual funds, CDs) and any other liquid source of
funds. Funds that have penalties for withdrawing must be considered
conservatively and are evaluated at 70% or less of their value. Accounts such
as pensions and other accounts and personal property that lack liquidity may not be
used as assets.

Automated underwriting:
Fanie Mae and Freddie Mac are the two largest companies that purchase mortgages
from other lenders in the United States. Many lenders will underwrite their files
according to their guidelines, but to ensure the eligibility to be purchased by
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, underwriters will utilize what is called automated
underwriting. This is a tool available to lenders to provide recommendations on the
risk of a loan and borrower and it provides the amount of documentation needed to
verify the risk.
It is important to remember that the approval and feedback is subject to the
underwriter's review. It is also the responsibility of the underwriter to evaluate the
aspects of the loan that is beyond the scope of automated underwriting. In short, it
is the underwriter that approves the loan, not the automated underwriting.
On the other hand, automated underwriting has streamlined the mortgage process
by providing analysis of credit and loan terms in minutes rather than days. For
borrowers it reduces the amount of documentation needed and may even require no
documentation of employment, income, assets or even value of the property.
Automated underwriting tailors the amount of necessary documentation in
proportion to the risk of the loan.

Approval decisions:
After reviewing all aspects of the loan, it is up to the underwriter to assess the risk
of the loan as a whole. Each borrower and each loan is unique and many borrowers
may not fit every guideline. However, certain aspects of the loan may compensate
for the lack in other areas. For an example, the risk of high LTVs can be offset by
the presence of a large amount of assets. Low LTVs can offset the fact that the
borrower has a high debt to income ratio and excellent credit can overcome the
lack of assets.
In addition to compensating factors, there is a concept known as layering of risk.
For an example, if the property is a high rise condo, occupied as an investment,
with a high LTV and a borrower who is self-employed, the cumulative effect of all
19

Jaipuria Institute of management, Noida

XL DYNAMICS INDIA PVT. LTD


these aspects yields higher risk. Though the borrower may meet all requirements
under the guidelines of the loan program, the underwriter must exercise caution.
There is an old saying in lending: If your portfolio does not have one foreclosure,
you are not accepting enough risk. Underwriters should review a loan from
a holistic point of view; otherwise they may turn down a loan that is high risk in
one aspect but low risk as a whole.

Income documents:
W2 Form
The form that an employer must send to an employee and the IRS at the end of the
year. The W-2 form reports an employee's annual wages and the amount of taxes
withheld from his or her paycheck.
Every employer engaged in a trade or business who pays remuneration, including
noncash payments of $600 or more for the year (all amounts if any income, social
security, or Medicare tax was withheld) for services performed by an employee
must file a Form W-2 for each employee (even if the employee is related to the
employer) from whom:
Income, social security, or Medicare tax was withheld. Income tax would have
been withheld if the employee had claimed no more than one withholding
allowance or had not claimed exemption from withholding on Form W-4,
Employee's Withholding Allowance Certificate.

1040 Form
The standard Internal Revenue Service (IRS) form that individuals uses to file their
annual income tax returns. The form contains sections that require taxpayers to
disclose their financial income status for the year in order to ascertain whether
additional taxes are owed or whether the taxpayer is due for a tax refund. 1040
forms
need
to
be
filed
with
the
IRS
by
April
15.

20

Jaipuria Institute of management, Noida

XL DYNAMICS INDIA PVT. LTD


Also known as the "U.S. individual income tax return" or the "long form". While
the 1040 form is composed of only a couple of pages, taxpayers may need to fill
out extra sections called schedules. For example, if a taxpayer received dividends
that totaled more than $1,500, he or she will need to fill out Schedule B, which is
the
section
for
reporting
interest
and
ordinary
dividends.
There are several variations of the 1040 depending on your individual tax situation.
For example, taxpayers that possess very simple taxation circumstances can fill out
the Form 1040EZ, which is a less comprehensive form.

Verification of employment (VOE)


Verification of Employment is a process used by banks and mortgage lenders in
the United States to review the employment history of a borrower, to determine
the borrower's job stability and cross-reference income history with that stated on
the Uniform Residential Loan Application (Form 1003). Lenders require complete
VOE declaring all positions held for the last two years of employment history.

Pay stub
A pay stub or paystub is a document that an employee receives as a notice that the
direct deposit transaction has gone through. It is a piece of paper that is given to an
employee with each paycheck and that shows the amount of money that the
employee earned and the amount that was removed for taxes, insurance costs, etc

Tax transcripts
A tax return transcript shows most line items from your tax return (Form 1040,
1040A or 1040EZ) as it was originally filed, including any accompanying forms
and schedules. In most cases, your transcript includes all the information a lender

4. I come to know how to mitigate and reduce risk by using appropriate underwriting techniques and
conditions which are being imposed on loans for mandatory checkpoints to close the loan.

5. I come to know how to identify borrowers credibility whether the borrower would be able to pay
regularly installments or not and if not then how we ask for more legal documents (e.g. bank
statements, any liens if have, other credits) to verify whether the borrower would be able to pay in
the future.
6. If as a result of my fault or delay in the loan process broker cancels the loan with company this
would result as loss for the company as well as for me as it would definitely impact the overall
growth of mine.
7. Even a small mistake could result in a big loss for the company .So I could say it a more technical
and risky job.
8. We decide when to sell the loans as MBS or mortgage based security to big banks like WELLS
FARGO.

Suggestions and Recommendations
After working in XL Dynamics India Pvt. Ltd. or I should say SWMC (Because it is the parent
company and all the operations are controlled by it) for 2 months, there are some suggestions
which I would like to give to the company. Following are the suggestions1. Training duration of new comers is very short (10-12 days only) but content which they
deliver in the training is very big. It should be at least three weeks long so that new comers get
enough time to understand the concept.
2. Conditions should be grouped into different groups as per origination types so that each of the
issue of different loan products could be handled separately and executed quickly and efficiently.
3. There are so many issues in the SunSoft software of the company. Sometimes it works
properly but sometime it does not work which result in data loss. Some time it works very slow.
This issue needs to be fixed as soon as possible so the work could be handled efficiently and
quickly.
4. There should be more coordination of work between the teams. As I found that because of
other teams loan get stuck for few days. If this problem is resolved then speed of the processing
of the loan could be enhanced.
5. In spite of using Libra Office which is very slow, they should use MS Office package because
it is easy, fast, reliable and convenient and we are familiar with it also. If they do this then the
speed of reviewing documents could be improved,
