(a) It is the intent of the Legislature that a mortgage servicer offer a borrower forbearance that is consistent with the mortgage servicer’s contractual or other authority. Nothing in this title requires a mortgage servicer to take any action that would require the mortgage servicer to breach the terms of an existing contract with the investor that owns or insures the residential mortgage loan.

(b) It is the intent that this title not apply to servicing guidelines that are unrelated to disaster-related forbearance relief.
