Beyond Compliance: Turning Your FHA MPS Reports into Lender Relationship Assets

Beyond Compliance: Turning Your FHA MPS Reports into Lender Relationship Assets

Basic consultants write MPS reports for compliance. Advanced consultants write them for leverage.
Your FHA Minimum Property Standards Report can do more than satisfy HUD — it can strengthen your partnerships with lenders and set you apart as a consultant who truly understands risk management.

At NAFHAC, our elite members use their reports as relationship tools, not paperwork. Here’s how to turn your documentation into authority.


1. Use MPS Reports as Strategic Conversations

Before sending the report, call your lender partner:

“I’ve got a few key items on this MPS that could affect your borrower’s approval timeline — want to review them together?”
This small step turns a transactional document into a collaborative dialogue.

Pro Tip: Keep notes on each lender’s pain points (appraisal delays, underwriter issues, etc.) and tailor your conversations accordingly.

2. Build a “Lender Education” Library

Save redacted MPS examples and turn them into mini case studies showing how your work prevented funding delays.
Example: “This report identified structural concerns early, saving the lender $2,500 in change order delays.”
These become assets for presentations, coffee chats, and your professional portfolio.

3. Integrate Digital MPS Tools for Efficiency

Use digital platforms or the upcoming NAFHAC MPS Mobile App to submit clean, lender-ready reports instantly.
Pro Move: Deliver reports in branded, visually polished PDF templates — it signals professionalism and reliability.

When you treat your MPS reports as part of your marketing strategy, every project becomes a chance to showcase excellence and deepen lender trust — the foundation of consistent referrals and premium positioning.
