WEBINAR DETAILS
Join regulatory compliance counselor Michael Christians for an in-depth analysis of the CFPB’s changes to the definition of a qualified mortgage. In December 2020, the CFPB issued a final rule that replaces the maximum DTI requirement with a pricing test and removes the prescriptive underwriting standards found in Appendix Q. The rule was effective for secondary market loans beginning July 1, 2021, and has a mandatory compliance date of October 1, 2022, for all other loans.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
This highly informative session is specifically designed for real estate lenders, loan processors, lending department leadership, compliance officers, and audit personnel.
