Effective for loans originated on or after January 1, 2018, CFPB’s Final Rule updates the dollar amounts for provisions implementing amendments to Truth-in-Lending Act (TILA) under the Home Ownership and Equity Protection Act (HOEPA) and the Dodd-Frank Act. Accordingly, Sun West will be updating the following sections of its Implementation Guide:
Home Ownership and Equity Protection Act (HOEPA)
The Loan Amount Thresholds and Points and Fees Limit used to determine whether a transaction is a High Cost Mortgage are revised as below:
Loan Amount Threshold | Points and Fees Limit |
Loan Amount ≥ $21,032 | 5% of Total Loan Amount |
Loan Amount < $21,032 | 8% of Total Loan Amount or $1,052, whichever is less |
Dodd-Frank Act - Ability to Repay/Qualified Mortgage (QM)
The Loan Amount Thresholds and Points and Fees Limits used to determine whether a transaction is a Qualified Mortgage (QM) are revised as below:
Loan Amount | Points and Fees Limit |
Loan Amount ≥ $105,158 | 3% of Total Loan Amount |
$63,095 ≤ Loan Amount < $105,158 | $3,155 |
$21,032 ≤ Loan Amount < $63,095 | 5% of Total Loan Amount |
$13,145 ≤ Loan Amount < $21,032 | $1,052 |
Loan Amount < $13,145 | 8% of Total Loan Amount |
The Total Loan Amount is calculated by subtracting any points and fees that are financed by the creditor from the amount financed.
