Fannie Expands Main Website

Fannie Mae has expanded its main website (http://www.fanniemae.com) and turned it into a business-to-business site that includes a new electronic news service and "push" technology that allows industry partners to receive Fannie Mae announcements automatically."The reincarnation of fanniemae.com as a business-to-business site is an important and logical next step in providing our lenders and other industry partners with leading-edge technology tools that help them transact business more efficiently," said John Buckley, Fannie Mae's senior vice president for communications. The site is organized into five sections: current investor information, business applications and forms, general information, a resource guide for the news media, and an employment opportunities database. Fanniemae.com is hyperlinked to HomePath.com (http://www.homepath.com), Fannie Mae's website for consumers seeking information on the mortgage process and Fannie Mae products.
