The note endorsed "Pay to the order of ____________ without recourse County Home Loans, Inc. "Almost five years later Smith defaulted on the payment. The Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie mae) wanted to foreclose on the house and sell it to recover the balance due. Smith argued that the words "to the order of ____________" in the endorsement made the note an incomplete order instrument and the Fannie Mae could not enforce it. What is Fannie Mae's best response to this argument?
