Could someone please provide the following correct information..????

I deal with 5-6 different lenders and I have seen page 4 of the HUD prepared 3 different ways…

#1 The YSP is showing as a credit “Paid to the Borrower”

#2 The YSP is showing as a credit “Paid to the lender”

#3 The YSP is showing as a credit “Paid to our Bank” (our loans are table funded)

I’ve experience considerable delays with some of my closing wires due to confusion that is created when companies do not complete page 4 of the HUD in a consistent manner. I was told that page 4 of the HUD is more for disbursement purposes and does not have to meet the same standards as pages 1, 2 & 3 on the HUD… I know it sounds nuts (you would have thought with all the RESPA changes there would only be “1” acceptable way to show the funds disbursements on page 4)….. Please let me know if any one else has or is encountering this same issue.. Thanks.

i agree, the GFE/HUD-1 may have been constructed with good intentions, but is a mess. Every lender has a different interpretation, and a competent title agency is most important. the change of circumstance is another gem(gov’t at work).

Yes, the HUD-1 new HUD-1 form is a difficult beast to master. However, it only has 3 official pages, not 4. Page 2 is used to show loan originator charges and credits to the borrower for YSP in lines 801 and 802. Any additional pages detailing fees and costs are not required by RESPA.

It sounds like someone in your company (or at the companies you deal with) has created” a “page 4” for internal disbursement purposes. Perhaps it is simply the closer’s disbursement record. In any event, since it is not governed by the RESPA rules closers and others will fill it out in a way that makes sense to them, which will likely vary considerably.

Old be is right, you are going to see variances in the disbursement page. It is purely a rehash of page 2 fees showing where they are going, it does help on the title end when trying to balance a wire…
