The Components of the Final RESPA Rule
(Effective 1/1/2010) FINAL RULE QUICK SUMMARY:
1) Changes to the new Good Faith Estimate (GFE). It will now become a 3 page document.
2) Yield Spread Premiums (YSP) are not longer paid to a mortgage broker, but are now going to be a credit on the NEW HUD to the borrower.
3) The NEW HUD-1 form will now become 3 pages and will reflect charges in an entirely different manner.
4) The REQUIRED USE provision intends to make any economic incentives or disincentives illegal, when used to "pursuade" a consumer's choice of various service providers. I
f you would like samples of the NEW HUD-1 and/or GFE, I will be happy to provide you a copy. I STRONGLY urge everyone to become familiar. Additional information will be posted soon.

No problem, at this very moment I am writing information pertaining to the new GFE. Hopefully it is of some assistance or just a "good to know" for others.

Thanks for the tips, Jamie. A link to the new HUD-1 would probably be helpful to many of us.
