Relaxed REMIC Requirements: IRS and Treasury Efforts to Address the Subprime Mortgage Crisis

McDermott, Will & Emery
October 16, 2008
This Alert looks at the recent actions taken by the Internal Revenue Service and U.S. Department of the Treasury to reduce tax risks for real estate mortgage investment conduits (or “REMICs”)  that try to minimize foreclosures through loan modifications. Prior to these actions, loan modifications could threaten a REMIC’s beneficial tax status (effectively expose it to double taxation), obviously a disincentive to take actions that could otherwise be beneficial to mortgage holders.
