Housing Finance Agencies

MGIC works closely with state and local Housing Finance Agencies (HFAs) and supports these mission-driven mortgage investors with homebuyer education and certification programs.

GSE Emerging Market Programs

We also participate in and support Fannie Mae’s MyCommunityMortgage® and Freddie Mac’s Home Possible®, special loan-purchase programs that target lower-income borrowers and/or borrowers living in areas where most households are minority or earn less than 80% of area median income.
