Freedom Mortgage (FM) Corp. would have to pay a $3.95 million fine and carry out regular auditing and testing of its loan data under a proposed order by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB).

FM submitted “error-riddled” mortgage loan data to federal regulators after being sued last year by the CFPB for similar failings. Additionally the company violated the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA) and a 2019 order, the agency announced a press release Tuesday.
