The information collection

34.203(c) through (f). This information
is required to protect consumers and
promote the safety and soundness of
creditors making higher-priced mortgage
loans (HPMLs) subject to 12 CFR part
34, subpart G. This information is used
by creditors to evaluate real estate
collateral securing HPMLs subject to 12
CFR 1026.35(c) and by consumers
entering these transactions. The
collections of information are
mandatory for creditors making HPMLs
subject to 12 CFR part 34, subpart G.
Under 12 CFR 34.203(e) and (f), a
creditor must, no later than the third
business day after the creditor receives
a consumer’s application for an HPML,
provide a disclosure to the consumer
that informs the consumer of the
purpose of the appraisal, that the
creditor will provide the consumer with
a copy of any appraisal, and that the
consumer may choose to have a separate
appraisal conducted at the expense of
the consumer (Initial Appraisal
Disclosure). If a loan is an HPML subject
to 12 CFR 1026.35(c), then the creditor
is required to obtain a written appraisal
prepared by a certified or licensed
appraiser who conducts a physical visit
of the interior of the property that will
secure the transaction (Written
Appraisal) and provide a copy of the
Written Appraisal to the consumer.
Under 12 CFR 34.203(d)(1), a creditor is
required to obtain an additional
appraisal (Additional Written
Appraisal) for an HPML that is subject
to 12 CFR part 34, subpart G if: (1) The
seller acquired the property securing the
loan 90 or fewer days prior to the date
of the consumer’s agreement to acquire
the property and the resale price
exceeds the seller’s acquisition price by
more than 10 percent; or (2) the seller
acquired the property securing the loan
91 to 180 days prior to the date of the
consumer’s agreement to acquire the
property and the resale price exceeds
the seller’s acquisition price by more
than 20 percent.
Under 12 CFR 34.203(d)(3) and (4),
the Additional Written Appraisal must
meet the requirements described in 12
CFR 34.203(c)(1) and also include an
analysis of: (1) The difference between
the price at which the seller acquired
the property and the price the consumer
agreed to pay; (2) changes in market
conditions between the date the seller
acquired the property and the date the
consumer agreed to acquire the
1 78 FR 10368 (February 13, 2013) and 78 FR
78519 (December 26, 2013).

property; and (3) any improvements
made to the property between the date
the seller acquired the property and the
date on which the consumer agreed to
acquire the property. Under 12 CFR
34.203(f), a creditor is required to
provide a copy of any Additional
Written Appraisal to the consumer.
Comments: On November 4, 2016, the
OCC issued a 60-day notice soliciting
comment on the information collection,
81 FR 77001. No comments were
received. Comments continue to be
invited on:
(a) Whether the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
OCC, including whether the information
has practical utility;
(b) The accuracy of the OCC’s
estimate of the information collection
burden;
(c) Ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected;
(d) Ways to minimize the burden of
the collection on respondents, including
through the use of automated collection
techniques or other forms of information
technology; and
(e) Estimates of capital or start-up
costs and costs of operation,
maintenance, and purchase of services
to provide information.
