Washington-Fannie Mae is giving servicers a new tool called HomeSaver Advance to help delinquent borrowers who are getting back on their feet but don't have the resources to cover missed payments.

Starting in April, Fannie servicers can offer borrowers an unsecured personal loan of up to $15,000 to cover missed payments, escrow advances, homeowner's association dues, and even late fees so the borrower can resume timely payments.

The homeowner does not have to pay interest or principal on the advance for first six months.

"It helps simplify and streamline the workout process for applicable loans, as it provides an option for earlier resolution of delinquent loans," Fannie says in a notice to its servicers.

Borrowers that have resolved the reason for their delinquency can qualify for a HomeSaver Advance, which has a 5% interest rate and amortizes over 14.5 years.
