Understand the Massive Mortgage Regulatory Transition
At 849 pages, the Dodd-Frank Act requires federal regulators to create 243 rules, conduct 67 studies, and issue 22 periodic reports, according to the law firm of Davis Polk. About 100 of the rules impact the mortgage industry.
The act affects every aspect of the mortgage process from origination to servicing and securitization. The DFA prohibits or restricts many previously common mortgage lending practices.
