Here’s what you need to do first:
Call us at 833.253.1133, and we'll let you know what information is required to disburse claims funds you receive from your insurance company to make repairs.
Then, you will be able to check the status of your claims disbursement at www.propertyclaimcenter.com. On your first visit, click Create Account to register. You will need to enter your loan number and email address to complete registration.
Once you have begun our claims process, you have completed the necessary documentation, and you receive a check from your insurance company, please take the following steps:
For example, if your loan is owned by Fannie Mae (FNMA) or Freddie Mac (FHLMC) and you are not behind on payments, the first $40,000 will be mailed to you and any remaining funds will be deposited into your escrow account and released as repairs are made. Typically, inspections will be required to verify the completion of repairs before additional funds are released to you.
For information specific to your loan, please contact our Disaster Claims team at 833.253.1133.
You may use insurance proceeds to pay off your loan, but keep in mind, if you choose to do this, you would then own the property “free and clear.” This means you are liable for all activities associated with the property – for example, clearing debris, making repairs, paying taxes, and paying insurance.
