Condo Project Manager (CPM) is a web-based tool designed to help lenders determine if a project will meet Fannie Mae's eligibility requirements. New and newly converted condo projects consisting of
attached units located in Florida are not eligible for CPM review. Projects that consist of four or fewer units have specific eligibility requirements under the Expedited Review process. Refer to FNMA guidelines
for requirements. With the exception of two-to-four unit projects, lenders must review the homeowners' association actual budget for established projects and the projected budget for new projects. Budget
provides for the funding of replacement reserves for capital expenditures and deferred maintenance (at lest 10% of the budget); and budget provides adequate funding for insurance deductible amounts.
Insurance requirements must meet FNMA's guidelines. Follow all requirements shown below in section called "Condominiums" . For projects in which the units are not separately metered for utilities, the

for utility payments (not applicable for two-four unit projects). Refer to FNMA guideline for additional requirements. The project must be located on contiguous parcels of land. It is acceptable for a project to be
divided by public or private streets. For investment property transactions on attached units in established projects (including two-to-four unit projects), at least 50% of the total units in the project must be
conveyed to principal residence or second home purchasers. This requirement does not apply if the subject mortgage is for a principal residence or second home.
