Government Sponsored Enterprise Data
The Department of Housing and Urban Development publishes a wealth of information on the mortgage purchases
of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, two Government Sponsored Enterprises
(GSEs) that HUD oversees. The GSEs are secondary-market institutions
that purchase single-family conventional loans originated
in the United States. HUD has established housing goals in
accordance with the Federal Housing Enterprises Financial
Safety and Soundness Act of 1992 (the 1992 GSE Act). Fannie
Mae and Freddie Mac are required to meet specified goals for
purchases of mortgages that finance housing for very-low-,
low- and moderate-income families and families living in areas
traditionally underserved by the mortgage market. These new
data sets shed light on their efforts and provide additional
data for mortgage research.
The information is intended to aid mortgage lenders, planners,
researchers, and housing advocates in studying the flow of
mortgage credit and capital in America's communities. It will
also help you understand where Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac
are focusing their affordable homeownership efforts.
You can obtain or view data from the GSE Public Use Database in several ways. The principal methods include downloading
data sets directly from the Internet, ordering data sets from
our website, ordering data sets on CD-ROM from HUD USER, and ordering or viewing tables derived from the
GSE Public Use Database.
In addition to data, there is more general information available
on HUD's implementation of the 1992 GSE Act, monitoring of
the GSEs' housing goals performance, and studies related
to the GSEs.

Download Geographically Targeted Goal
Data The annual Geographically Targeted Goal is
intended to achieve increased purchases by the GSEs of mortgages
financing housing in areas that are underserved in terms of
mortgage credit. Files that identify areas designated by HUD
as underserved are available in census tract level files covering
metropolitan and nonmetropolitan areas. The year for which
the underserved definitions are applicable is indicated in
the respective file name. Underserved area definitions are
based on prior year MSA definitions as determined by OMB.
Each file includes a description of the file layout.
