WHAT?
The proper disclosure of fees on consumer loan transactions is more complicated than ever before due the addition and revisions of rules for:

• Integrated Disclosures
• Ability to Repay/QMs
• High-Cost Mortgages
• HMDA/Regulation C
• Military lending rules

This program explains:

• Which fees are included in or excluded from the:
  • Finance charge - a critical component in the calculation of the APR.
  • APR - easy to get wrong if your finance charge is not properly calculated.
  • Total Points and Fees - perhaps "the most important number in the world of compliance." It is used to determine QM status, and it is also used to determine coverage for Section 32 rules, it is disclosed in a Section 32 disclosure and on the HMDA LAR. A single miscalculation can result in multiple violations.

Plus, we'll cover:

• Military APR - a calculation most lenders will need to make under the expanded DoD rules effective October, 2016.
• TRID fee disclosures - properly disclosing fees on the Loan Estimate and Closing Disclosure.
• TRID Tolerance rules - when you may, must, or can't issue a new Loan Estimate, and when you are required to make reimbursement.
• And more!

 The program materials include a list of examples of specific fees outlined in the regulations! 

"Oh what a tangled web we weave"... Walter Scott was referring to the web woven by people who intend to deceive others. The CFPB has created a "tangled web" while crafting regulations intended to prevent deception. This webinar will help you untangle the intricacies of numerous fee disclosure requirements.

WHY ATTEND?

This program provides the information needed to fully understand the rules and to avoid the liability inducing problems.
