Mortgage Finance Regulation Answer Book
(New Title)

Mortgage finance has always been heavily regulated. In the past year, new requirements mandated by Dodd-Frank and other reform initiatives have made it even more complex.  PLI’s new Mortgage Finance Regulation Answer Book 2011-12 unravels the complexity and walks you through each element of the current regulatory requirements.

Using an easy Q & A format, Mortgage Finance Regulation Answer Book 2011-12:

  • Helps you understand the regulations applicable to every step of the mortgage application and issuance process
  • Describes all of the federal requirements, and their implications, under each of the relevant statutes, including the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA), the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA), the Truth in Lending Act (TILA), the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) and many others
  • Compares the differences in privacy, disclosure and other requirements between the different federal statutes
  • Contains an introductory chapter on residential mortgage loan basics, written in plain English with the non-expert in mind

Written by seasoned practitioners from Patton Boggs who have successfully represented a wide range of clients in both the residential and commercial mortgage banking industries, Mortgage Finance Regulation Answer Book 2011-12 is filled with compliance suggestions that can help you avoid or minimize client problems.

Mortgage Finance Regulation Answer Book 2011-12 will quickly become your “go to” guide when it comes to understanding the current federal requirements and how they inter-relate with each other.
