Protecting America's Property Rights Act
This bill requires title insurance on conventional mortgages purchased by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

The bill also prohibits Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac from implementing any new program without the approval of the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), in addition to the approval of the Department of the Treasury as under current law. Approval from both is also required for any new activity, product, or type of risk.
FHFA must appear before Congress on a semiannual basis regarding new programs, activities, products, or types of risk.
