Mitigated Finding

In the context of mortgage origination and underwriting, a Finding has been Mitigated if the Mortgagee has adequately addressed the deficiencies underlying the Finding, and such deficiencies have been remedied so that the Mortgagee’s decision to approve the Mortgage or to endorse or seek endorsement from FHA for insurance of the Mortgage is acceptable to FHA. In the context of mortgage servicing, a Finding has been Mitigated if the Mortgagee has adequately addressed the deficiencies underlying the Finding, and such deficiencies have been remedied through mortgage servicing actions taken by the Mortgagee so there is no longer an adverse impact on the Property and/or FHA.
