UAD 3.6 · URAR redesign

UAD 3.6 is live. Be ready before November 2.

Broad Production began January 26, 2026. Every loan sold to Fannie or Freddie after November 2, 2026 has to use the new URAR — thousands of fields, strict MISMO 3.6 enums, conditional requirements that cascade. We read the spec so you don't have to.

The workflow

How it works, step by step.

  1. 01
    Aria parses the order on intake

    Order details parsed on intake — lender, client, subject address, and due date pre-fill the assignment. Loan type, effective date, and intended-use fields are confirmed by you during form completion.

  2. 02
    Every field, explained inline

    Hover any UAD 3.6 field and Aria shows the definition, accepted MISMO enum values, and how GSE graders read it. No 600-page spec to dig.

  3. 03
    Enums proposed from the record

    Property type, condition (C1–C6), quality (Q1–Q6), view, location — Aria reads the contract, assessor card, MLS sheet, and photos, proposes a value with citations. You click to confirm.

  4. 04
    Conditional rules handled

    When one field unlocks five more, we flag it the moment it happens. No surprise missing sub-fields at export.

  5. 05
    Check the candidate XML

    A local check against the pinned MISMO 3.6 XSD and supported H-1 rules before download. Results are a clickable punch list; portal acceptance is not implied.

  6. 06
    Prepare manual upload

    We build an internally checked candidate ZIP (MISMO XML + URAR PDF + photos) for manual portal upload. Direct API submission and GSE acceptance remain unverified.

What's included

Everything in this feature.

Field-level coach

Aria sits inside every field with definition, enum hints, and why-it-matters context.

Citation chips

Every proposed value carries a click-through to the source document or data point.

Conditional unlock tracker

Visible ledger of sub-fields that just became required, with status dots.

Local schema check

The app checks candidate XML against the pinned MISMO 3.6 XSD. That catches local structural errors but does not replace portal or GSE verification.

Enum dictionary

Plain-English gloss for every MISMO enum, plus the raw code that writes to XML.

Graceful refusal

If Aria can't be sure, she asks. She doesn't guess values that carry reviewer risk.

Why this matters

We treat UAD 3.6 as the main event, not a checkbox.

Every competitor claims broad readiness. Very few actually walk you through the new dynamic URAR field-by-field. The difference shows up the first time you hit a conditional unlock at 9 PM the night before a deadline.
