The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) has unveiled its new Loan Estimate and Closing Disclosure forms for home loans.
These new forms were created to be uniform, clutter-free and user-friendly replacements for the current Good Faith Estimate (GFE), Truth in Lending Disclosure and HUD-1 forms provided to borrowers during the loan origination process.
These new forms are now available for review on the CFPB website. The CFPB is still soliciting comments for finalizing the forms and their use.
