My loan was just transferred to Planet, what does this mean?
The servicing and/or ownership of your loan may be transferred to Planet. You will receive notices of the transfer of servicing of your loan and/or the transfer of ownership of your loan in the mail that address your particular situation. Please read these notices carefully.
If the servicing of your loan has been transferred to us, that means you should now send mortgage loan payments to Planet. As your new servicer, we’ll handle monthly payments, any escrow funds, and answer all your mortgage questions.
Will the terms of my loan change?
No, the terms of your loan will not change when a loan is transferred.
What happens to my escrow?
The escrow account that you had with your prior loan servicer will be transferred to Planet. We may evaluate it to make sure it contains the right amount of funds. Planet will notify you if the escrow portion of your mortgage payment is going to change.
What steps should I take if my loan has been transferred to Planet?
Where can I find my new loan number?
You don’t need to know your loan number to register for Planet’s customer portal.
Once you’re registered, you can see your loan number in the “My Loan” section. Click on the blue “Loan number” link and your full account number will appear.
What communications should I look for when my home loan is transferred?
After your loan is transferred and you register your account, you’ll have access to lots of information about your mortgage. You will also receive mailings from both your previous servicer and from Planet.
How will I make payments on my loan after it has been transferred?
The fastest, easiest way to pay is to register in Planet’s customer portal. There, you can make a one-time electronic payment, schedule future payments, or sign up for automatic payments.

What happens if I have automatic payments set up for my loan with the previous servicer?
