The proposed housing goals rule for the GSEs was first issued in August 2014. More than 144 comments were made on the proposed rule, all of which were considered by the FHFA in the development of the final rule. According to the FHFA, the final rule sets identical benchmarks in all categories for both Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
