This program provides a detailed review of the newly revised Good Faith Estimate and step-by-step instructions for completing the form.
The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) recently approved a final rule that completely overhauls the requirements of Regulation X, the implementing regulation for the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA). While some the revisions are already in effect, most of the new rules, including the new rules for the Good Faith Estimate (GFE), are effective January 1, 2010.
