  "title": "Texas Asset-Depletion Mortgage Rule Matrix: 2026 Agency Version Check",
  "description": "A source-mapped comparison of the current Fannie Mae employment-related asset method, the current Freddie Mac non-adopter method, and the Freddie Mac Bulletin 2026-10 early-adopter method.",
  "version": "2026.1",
  "published_date": "2026-09-04",
  "source_reviewed_date": "2026-09-04",
  "record_count": 3,
  "scope": "A residential mortgage screening comparison for three published Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac asset-income rule versions. It is not a complete underwriting guide, does not cover every asset category or lender overlay, and does not create a universal non-agency asset-depletion method.",
  "disclaimer": "This educational matrix is not an approval, commitment to lend, rate quote, Loan Estimate, or calculation of any borrower's actual qualifying income. Current agency guides, the Freddie seller's adoption status, automated-underwriting findings, selected lender requirements, and the complete documented file control.",
  "methodology": "Kellibrooke reviewed the cited primary agency sources on the review date, separated the currently effective Freddie non-adopter method from the complete Bulletin 2026-10 early-adopter package, and recorded only rule-version screens that can be traced to those sources. Unknown or asset-category-specific requirements remain identified as items to verify rather than being converted into universal rules.",
