The Uniform Collateral Data Portal (UCDP) and the Electronic Appraisal Dataset (EAD) are essential tools that provide a standardized way to submit appraisal data to government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs) such as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. However, navigating these systems and interpreting the resulting reports, like the Submission Summary Report (SSR) with its crucial Collateral Underwriter (CU) score, can be both complex and time-consuming.

What are UCDP and EAD?

The UCDP and EAD are standardized systems used by mortgage lenders to submit appraisal data to GSEs like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. These systems ensure appraisal data quality, compliance with regulatory requirements, and efficient loan processing. UCDP is the single portal for submitting conventional mortgage appraisals to either GSE, while EAD is specifically for FHA-insured loans. Both systems require appraisal data in the MISMO XML format and generate a Submission Summary Report (SSR) that includes a Collateral Underwriter (CU) score, a risk assessment tool used by the GSEs to evaluate appraisals.
