sellers. The Secretary of the Department
of Housing and Urban Development
(HUD) was instructed by the RESPA to
develop a standard form for the

Rental Housing, and Farm Labor
Housing. The same parties performing
the closing of FSA Farm Ownership
loans and credit sales also complete the
form. The information is collected to
provide the buyer and seller with a
statement detailing the actual costs of
the settlement services involved in the
Agencies financed real estate
transactions.
Estimate of Burden: Public reporting
burden for this collection of information
is estimated to average .36 hours per
response.
Respondents: Settlement Agents,
Closing Attorneys, and Title Insurance
Companies performing the closing of the
Agencies loans and credit sales.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
11,928.
Estimated Number of Responses per

information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Agencies, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the Agencies’
estimate of the burden of the proposed
collection of information including the
validity of the methodology and
assumptions used; (c) ways to enhance
the quality, utility and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (d)
