Fannie Mae issued Servicing Guide Announcement SVC-2021-08 (Announcement), setting forth updates to the Servicing Guide. Per the Announcement, Fannie Mae consolidated property insurance requirements applicable to both lenders and servicers into the Selling Guide.

Revisions related to borrower-facing Guide documents are effective March 1, 2022 (servicers, however, are encouraged to begin using the updated Guide documents immediately). All other revisions are effective immediately.
