Federal regulators are asking for industry input on prototypes for a new, unified settlement disclosure form that will replace the separate HUD-1 Settlement Statement and Truth in Lending disclosure form currently in use.
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau — which has also been asking for feedback this year on a unified loan disclosure form that consumers will receive when they apply for a mortgage — says it plans to test a number of different designs for a new settlement disclosure form over the next few months.
The bureau will accept industry and consumer feedback until Nov. 16 on its initial prototypes for a redesigned settlement disclosure form. Based on that feedback, the bureau will fine-tune the prototypes and seek additional comments.
Consumers currently get two disclosure forms whenever they apply for a mortgage, and two more at the closing table.
