Owning a Home Website
Beginning October 3, 2015 the closing process will change nationwide. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has set up a consumer website www.consumerfinance.gov/owning-a-home to help buyers "know before they owe". The Truth in Lending Act (TRID) will merge several forms into two new closing forms: a Loan Estimate and a Closing Disclosure. The Owning a Home website includes tools for consumers such as tools to explore interest rates, a monthly payment worksheet, a loan estimate explainer, a closing checklist, a guide to closing forms and much more.
