New Good Faith Estimate Requirements - Starting 1-1-10

New Good Faith Estimate Requirements - Starting 1-1-10

Based on the changes to the RESPA that came into effect last year, there are a few more changes that will be taking place January 1, 2010. One of the biggest changes is the Good Faith Estimate and the HUD-1 that goes along with it.

Lenders are required to fully disclose all of the costs of the loan to the buyer within a prescribed format and timeframe. Rumor has it that there is a lot of confusion when it comes to interpreting the changes within the lending industry. Therefore, it might hold things up a little at the begiinning of the year until everyone works through the process a few times.

I have included a power point that talks about the details of the GFE changes and a copy of the new GFE.
