What does a loan servicer do?

In general, you can expect a loan servicer to:

• Send monthly mortgage statements.
• Apply your mortgage payments in a timely manner.
• Manage your escrow account, if you have one—including paying your tax and/or insurance bills on your behalf when they are due and reviewing your account at least annually.
• Provide year-end statements such as the 1098 Mortgage Interest Statement each year.

But to NewDay USA, servicing your loan means much more. We go the extra mile to ensure five-star service and help Veterans reach their homeownership goals. We are honored to serve you.

After your transfer date of February 4, 2025, you need to:

• Begin contacting NewDay USA's new servicing center with inquiries regarding your mortgage. After February 3, our current servicing center will no longer be able to access your mortgage, receive payments, or otherwise assist with your loan.
  
  
• Set up your new online account beginning February 6: See our Getting Started Online FAQs for details and step-by-step instructions. To register, click here to register.
  
  
• Begin using our New Ways to Pay.
  
  
• If you have automatic payments set up with our prior servicing center, click here for important information.
  
  
• If you use a third-party bill pay service, update your payment settings to ensure your payment is sent to Cornerstone Servicing as follows:

NewDay Financial, LLC DBA NewDay USA
PO Box 660217
Dallas, TX 75266-0217.

• Confirm your contact preferences are up to date.

Have my autopay settings continued after my transfer date, or do I need to set it up again?

If your loan is set up for monthly automatic payments with our prior servicing center, meaning one recurring ACH draft each month, these payment settings are transferring to our new servicing center. Please note, if normal draft day is between the 4th and 9th day of each month, expect your February payment to draft on February 10th. You will be able to see the payment in your new online account on February 11th. Then, your normal recurring monthly draft schedule will resume. 

Automatic payments set up to draft more than once per month are not transferring to our new servicing center - for example, Flex Drafts (1st and 15th of each month), biweekly, weekly, etc. To reestablish automatic payments with NewDay USA's new servicing center, please contact us for information and eligibility requirements beginning February 6th. We'll be eager to help! Information is also available here.

Will my autopay draft schedule change?

While your February payment may draft later than usual due to the transfer, your existing automatic payment schedule will not change.

If normal draft day is between the 4th and 9th day of each month, expect your February payment to draft on February 10th. You will be able to see the payment in your new online account on February 11th. It will not be considered late. Then, your normal recurring monthly draft schedule will resume. 

How can I review and change my automatic payment settings after the transfer?

Beginning February 6th, you can log into your new online account to confirm or update your autopay settings. If you prefer to do this by phone, your new support team will be happy to help—please contact us.

You will need to set up your new online account beginning February 6 in order to: make or schedule online payments; view up-to-date loan information such as your balance, payment history, and escrow account information; access new billing statements; and more.

Will my escrow account transfer?

Yes. Effective on your transfer date, we will pay your tax and/or insurance bills from your escrow account on your behalf when they are due. 

As your mortgage servicer, we will review your account at least annually and inform you of any necessary changes to your payment in the event your tax and/or insurance expenses change.

You will be able to view your up-to-date escrow account activity via your new online account anytime.

Do I need to tell my insurance company about the transfer?

Your insurance company will be notified to update the mortgagee clause in your policy to our new servicing center at the address below. The mortgagee clause lets your insurance provider know where to send premium notices, bills, funds in the event of a claim, etc.

I just received a property tax bill and have an escrow account. What do I do next?

Simply mail or fax your tax bill to the address below and include your loan number on the bill.

I am behind on my mortgage payments. What should I expect after the transfer?

If you are experiencing financial hardship, we’re here to help. Here’s a summary of what to expect beginning on your transfer date:

• Beginning February 10, our Homeowner Assistance Team will be able to fully assist with and answer questions specific to your mortgage. This will allow time for us to verify your loan and application details.
  
  
• Soon after your transfer date, we may mail a Validation of Debt letter to your mailing address on file. We are required by law to mail this letter, which will include the amount owed on your loan.
  
  
• In mid-February, a member of our Homeowner Assistance Team will call you by phone to welcome you and discuss mortgage assistance options available, if applicable. If you are already on or have applied for mortgage assistance, we will review the status of your application and details with you.
  
  
• Your first billing statement from our new servicing center will be mailed and available to you online before your March payment is due.

We are eager to be a resource for you. Please contact us after your transfer date and any time you have questions moving forward.

I was about to apply for mortgage assistance. Should I wait until after the transfer?

No, you do not need to wait to apply for mortgage assistance due to your loan transferring to our new servicing center. If you submit an application in January, your application will be transferred to us effective February 4.

I already started an application for mortgage assistance. Will I need to start over?

No. If you are already in the process of applying for mortgage assistance with our prior servicing center, you will not need to reapply once your loan transfers. We will contact you in February to welcome you and review the details of your application.

If you need to send documents or have questions about the status of your application, please contact our Homeowner Assistance Team beginning February 10. This will allow time for us to verify your loan and application details.

Will my current mortgage assistance plan change when my loan transfers?

If you have already been approved for or are on an active plan – such as a forbearance (including pandemic or natural disaster forbearance), repayment plan, or loan modification trial – the terms will not change due to the transfer. We will contact you to talk about next steps.
