Income\/Employment remained the leading category of defects reported, despite continuing its multi-quarter trend of decline.<\/li>\n<li>A sub-category analysis of the Assets and Income\/Employment categories uncovered troubling defect trends related to eligibility.<\/li>\n<li>Appraisal defects declined once again, now reflecting a multi-quarter trend.<\/li>\n<li>Purchase share dominated in Q3 2022, as expected given market conditions, while review share for FHA, USDA and VA loans increased.<\/li>\n<li>In a reversal of last quarter\u2019s findings, FHA defect share saw a moderate increase in Q3 2022, along with a slight defect increase in conventional loans. USDA and VA loan defects improved significantly last quarter.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u201cThe overarching theme for this quarter\u2019s report is the effect of sharp declines in loan volume and interest rate volatility on lenders\u2019 operations. With purchase originations down nearly 20% quarter-over-quarter and close to 50% year-over-year, lenders are fighting to keep every potential piece of business that comes their way and, perhaps, becoming more aggressive in their borrower qualifications,\u201d said ACES Executive Vice President Nick Volpe. \u201cRiding the line on eligibility provides little margin for error. Thus, lenders must continue emphasizing loan quality to ensure salability and long-term asset performance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Findings for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.acesquality.com\/resources\/reports\/q3-2022-aces-mortgage-qc-industry-trends\">Q3 2022 ACES Mortgage QC Industry Trends Report<\/a> are based on post-closing quality control data derived from the ACES Quality Management and Control\u00ae benchmarking system and incorporate data from prior quarters and\/or calendar years, where applicable. All reviews and defect data evaluated for the report were based on loan audits selected by lenders for full file reviews.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn our last report, we mentioned employment and loan documentation as areas of concern. As layoffs have continued since Q2 2022, we\u2019re seeing the ripple effects of interest rate volatility and changing market conditions surface in other areas of the loan manufacturing process, particularly in eligibility,\u201d said ACES CEO Trevor Gauthier. \u201cWith ACES, lenders can not only identify these immediate areas of concern but also view their QC findings within a historical context to pinpoint trends and execute immediate corrective actions to protect the integrity of their origination pipeline.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mortgage QC Industry Trends Reports are available for download, free of charge, at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.acesquality.com\/resources\/reports\">https:\/\/www.acesquality.com\/resources\/reports<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About ACES Quality Management:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>ACES Quality Management is the leading provider of enterprise quality management and control software for the financial services industry.
