Mortgage lending can be described as detail-driven, document-dependent, and compliance-critical. Knowledge is power — especially when there are changes. Is your program up to snuff?
After This Webinar You’ll Be Able To:
- Outline the eight factors to consider when determining a borrower’s ability to repay
- List the types of documentation used to verify income and assets
- Define a change of circumstance that allows increased closing costs
- Explain the difference between Lender Credit placement on the Loan Estimate and the Closing Disclosure
- Distinguish between ability to repay requirements and qualified mortgage requirements
- Describe the characteristics of a “seasoned” qualified mortgage
Webinar Details
Mortgage lending has some of the most intense regulatory requirements of any financial product or service. It is critical for mortgage lenders to keep up with changes to the process. Recent changes include the addition of the “seasoned” qualified mortgage and the replacement of the static 43% DTI threshold for a qualified mortgage with a slightly more complex, but more consumer-friendly, maximum rate requirement. This webinar will explore the protections provided to lenders when a qualified mortgage is made, when loan costs can and cannot increase, and whether a revised Loan Estimate is allowed or required.
