It's your favorite party that created Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, first Fannie Mae as a federal government agency and then in 1968 as a private corporation.
When I worked at Fannie Mae between 1988-93, the average Guarantee Fee on a MBS Pool of mortgages was 20-25 basis points.
Today, with the 10 basis points Infrastructure Act add on its about 65-75 basis points.
It now costs American Families $2,000 more per year on a $400,000 mortgage and $4,000 per year on a $800,000 mortgage.
Having the government run the GSES is a mistake.
The MBA loves the elevated surcharges to hard working American Families though!

Let's face it, some American Families are better at managing their limited resources than others. Why should an Unelected Bureaucrat in a federal agency decide which groups will be rewarded at the expense of others?
