Digitally Executed Promissory Notes (DEPNs)
DEPNs Overview
The Digitally Executed Promissory Notes (DEPNs) webpage provides information and resources to help members pledge loans that were executed using a digital signature.
Under our eNotes program, members may pledge residential one- to four-family first mortgages and amortizing second mortgages.
With our Digital Notes program, eligibility expands to include notes in the multifamily, commercial real estate, land, residential construction and home equity/HELOC loan categories.
Please note that imaged or scanned notes are not eligible.
Detailed requirements are available in the DEPNs Collateral Requirements and Guidelines, and additional resources can be found on the eNotes page.
