To initiate a loan application under TRID rules, the borrower must provide the mortgage broker with six pieces of information: name, income, social security number, address of the property, the estimated value of the property, and desired mortgage amount.
Disclosure of good faith estimate of costs must be made no later than 3 days after application. This means that a creditor must deliver or mail the early disclosures for all mortgage loans subject to RESPA no later than 3 business days (general definition) after the creditor receives a consumer's application.
TRID Is Here
There you will find filled-in samples as well as blank samples of the Closing Disclosure and Loan Estimate forms. These forms replaced the Initial and Final Truth in Lending Disclosure, Good Faith Estimate, the HUD-1 Settlement Statement forms that were previously used in most transactions.
Most consumer mortgage loan closings are covered. Exceptions include reverse mortgages, open-ended loans such as HELOCS, loans for business, commercial, or agricultural purposes, and loans made to other than natural persons. Let me state the obvious: cash deals are not covered by TRID.
The HUD-1 and final TIL will be replaced by the Closing Disclosure (CD) which must be verified as delivered to the consumer (borrower) three days before loan documents can be signed.
The receiving party or its representatives may be required by oral questions (i.e., testimony), interrogatories, or other requests for documents in legal proceedings, subpoenas, civil investigative demands, or similar processes, to disclose confidential information.
A: Not later than 3 business days after the mortgage broker received the application or information sufficient to complete the application, either the lender or the mortgage broker must provide a GFE. The lender is responsible for ascertaining whether the GFE has been provided.
The TRID rule provides that the borrower can waive the seven-business-day waiting period after receiving the LE and the three-day waiting period after receiving the CD if the borrower has a “bona fide personal financial emergency,” which requires closing the transaction before the end of these waiting periods.
The lender must provide you a Loan Estimate within three business days of receiving your application.
Mail Delivery – For disclosures delivered via traditional (or “snail”) mail, the “mailbox rule” applies. The borrower is considered to have received the disclosures three business days after the disclosures are delivered or placed in the mail. Proof of actual delivery earlier can shorten the mailbox rule time period.
The six items are the consumer's name, income and social security number (to obtain a credit report), the property's address, an estimate of property's value and the loan amount sought.
The aggregate amount of the charges paid by or imposed on the consumer at consummation may not exceed ten percent for fees originally disclosed on the LE. In the event these fees were not disclosed in good faith, they would be subject to the zero tolerance bucket.
What Happens If a Loan Estimate Is Not Sent Within the 3 Days? This is a violation of the law. If a lender fails to provide origination information, the applicant can report their creditor details to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
