Uniform mortgage modification act.
SF 31, the Uniform Mortgage Modification Act, establishes rules for changing mortgage terms in Wyoming, affecting borrowers and lenders who adjust loan agreements. It clarifies that modifications like interest rate reductions, payment schedule changes, or forgiven interest do not alter a mortgage's priority for repayment or require new recording. The law defines "mortgage modification" broadly to cover common changes, including switching to fixed rates or adjusting escrow requirements. Borrowers and lenders can implement these changes without affecting the mortgage's legal position or needing additional registration.

MINOR
The bill was finalized and enrolled as the official law of Wyoming, transitioning from a draft Senate file to an enacted act. The text was cleaned up to remove internal legislative tracking numbers and formatting artifacts while retaining the core Uniform Mortgage Modification Act provisions.
Scope change
The scope of the bill remains unchanged; it continues to govern mortgage modifications, priority rules, and applicability for the 2026 budget session.
TECHNICAL
Removed internal legislative tracking numbers, page headers, and draft-specific annotations to produce the final clean text of the law.
Updated the bill header to reflect its status as an enrolled act (Act No. 3) rather than a draft Senate file.
Standardized the formatting of section numbers and definitions to match the final enrolled version.
