This version of the Booklet incorporates statutory amendments and the Loan Estimate and Closing Disclosure from mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES SUMMARY: reflect the estimate that one registered SDR may deregister every two years. The burden to deregister is estimated at 10 hours per deregistering entity. The total annual ongoing burden for all SDRs for registration is now estimated to be 275 hours.

The title of this publication is ‘‘Your Home Loan Toolkit: A Step-by-Step Guide.’’ ADDRESSES: The updated consumer publication is available for download on the Bureau’s Web site at www.consumerfinance.gov/learnmore and can also be found in the Catalog of U.S. Government Publications (https:// catalog.gpo.gov), maintained by Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Publishing Office, Washington, DC 20402. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Julie Vore, Originations Analyst, Office of Mortgage Markets; David Friend, Counsel, Office of Regulations, CFPB_ reginquiries@cfpb.gov or (202) 435– 7700. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Bureau is hereby publishing this notice of availability to inform the public of the existence of an updated version of the Home Buying Information Booklet. Background on the Booklet In its enactment in 1974, section 5 of RESPA required the provision of ‘‘special information booklets’’ to help persons borrowing money to finance the purchase of residential real estate to understand better the nature and costs of real estate settlement services. Public Law 93–553. Since 1976, the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) implemented the requirement through publication of the Booklet titled ‘‘Shopping for Your Home Loan: Settlement Cost Booklet.’’ Section 1450 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act), Public Law 111– 203, amended section 5 of RESPA by, among other things, transferring responsibility for the Booklet from HUD to the Bureau. 12 U.S.C. 2604, as amended by the Dodd-Frank Act, requires the Director of the Bureau to prepare, at least once every five years, ‘‘a booklet to help consumers applying for federally related mortgage loans to understand the nature and costs of real estate settlement services.’’ 12 U.S.C. 2604(a). Section 1450 of the Dodd-Frank Act also amended 12 U.S.C. 2604 by adding new content requirements, including information on homeownership counseling services, an explanation of a consumer’s responsibilities, liabilities and obligations in a mortgage transaction, and a list of questions a consumer obtaining a federally related mortgage PO 00000 Frm 00029 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 loan should ask regarding the loan, including whether the consumer will have the ability to repay the loan, whether the consumer sufficiently shopped for the loan, whether the loan terms include prepayment penalties or balloon payments, and whether the loan will benefit the borrower. Other statutes, discussed below, have also amended 12 U.S.C. 2604 to include additional information on flood insurance. In November 2013, the Bureau issued a final rule that amended section 1024.5 to provide creditors with an exemption from certain RESPA requirements, including the requirements of section 1024.6, for loans subject to the TILA– RESPA integrated disclosure requirements. The rule also added section 1026.19(g), which is substantially similar to the requirements of 1024.6, but modified to conform to the usage associated with TILA. To reflect the transfer of the Booklet to the Bureau and ensure consistency with the Bureau’s rulemakings regulating practices in mortgage origination and servicing that took effect in January 2014, the CFPB made technical and conforming changes to the Booklet and made the revised Booklet available in January 2014. 79 FR 1836 (Jan. 10, 2014). Contents of the Updated Version of the Booklet The Bureau is updating the Booklet to incorporate: (1) statutory amendments made to 12 U.S.C. 2604 by the DoddFrank Act, the Moving Ahead for Progress in 21st Century Act, Public Law 112–141, and the Homeowner Flood Insurance Affordability Act of 2014, Public Law 113–89; (2) the Bureau’s Integrated Disclosures final rule effective on August 1, 2015; and (3) additional Bureau contact information, online tools, and information on how to submit complaints. Every effort was made to incorporate all statutory amendments; however, a Dodd-Frank Act amendment to 12 U.S.C. 2604 to provide notice of a loan fraud brochure and the web address and telephone number for obtaining the brochure could not be incorporated, as the brochure is no longer supported by the issuing agency. Instead, the Bureau has provided a link in the Booklet to a HUD Web page on loan fraud. The Bureau views this publication as part of the Bureau’s broader mission to educate consumers about consumer financial products. The Booklet has also been revised to, among other things, improve the readability and usability of the booklet and link to the Bureau’s Web site, regarding tools and resources that consumers can use to make better- E:\FR\FM\01APN1.SGM 01APN1
