AI Summary

This bill amends the CARES Act to provide forbearance and foreclosure moratoriums for all mortgage loans, not just Federally backed mortgage loans. It expands the definition of "covered mortgage loan" to include any 1- to 4-unit residential real estate loan. The bill also provides automatic 60-day forbearance periods for delinquent borrowers, with the ability to extend the forbearance for up to 360 days. Additionally, it imposes a 6-month moratorium on foreclosures and repossessions of personal property used as a dwelling. The bill makes several other changes, including reforms to mortgage forbearance, requirements for servicers during forbearance, and protections for renters during forbearance. It also provides liquidity for mortgage servicers and establishes a credit facility for residential rental property owners.
