Special Information Booklet

 (Part 5 of 5)

booklet1(Jeff Sorg, OnlineEd) – A creditor must provide the special information booklet, specifically the RESPA Settlement Costs Booklet, to the consumer who applies for a consumer credit transaction secured by real property no later than three business days after receiving the consumer’s loan application. The booklet does not have to be given to a consumer who applies for a refinance, subordinate lien, or reverse mortgage loan.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has issued an updated version of the Special Information Booklet that incorporates the new Loan Estimate and Closing Disclosure. The new guide is titled “Your Home Loan Toolkit: A Step-by-step Guide.” The CFPB has made this guide available as a PDF download, or it can be ordered from the U.S. Government Printing Office (GPO):

The updated Special Information Booklet will be used starting October 3, 2015.
