How the math works
When servicing transfers, the new servicer re-analyzes the escrow account and recalculates the monthly deposit. Most transfers don't change the payment materially. Changes come from updated tax and insurance figures, cushion adjustments, or spreading prior shortages.
A transfer itself cannot change your rate or P&I — those are loan terms, not servicing matters. If you see a rate change after transfer, contact the servicer and CFPB. Escrow math changes are routine; P&I changes require a modification or recast.
How to Use
- Enter current P&I and escrow portion.
- Enter updated annual tax and insurance.
- Enter cushion months (2 is max under RESPA).
- Enter any existing escrow shortage to be spread over 12 months.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can a servicing transfer change my rate?
No. P&I is a loan term, not a servicing item. Only a modification or recast can change it. If the new servicer claims otherwise, contact CFPB immediately — this is a significant violation.
Why did my payment change?
Most common reasons: updated tax bill since last analysis, updated insurance premium, change in cushion policy (to the max 2 months), or spreading of a prior escrow shortage. Request the escrow analysis statement to see details.
Who sends the transfer notice?
Both servicers. Old servicer sends goodbye letter 15+ days before transfer. New servicer sends hello letter within 15 days after. You have 60 days post-transfer to challenge a payment error without losing consumer protections.
