MORTGAGE CHOICE ACT INTRODUCED IN US HOUSE
The Mortgage Choice Act (AKA 3% Cap Bill) is bipartisan legislation that would make two adjustments to the Truth in Lending Act's (TILA) definition of "points and fees" to ensure greater consumer choice in mortgage and settlement services under the Ability to Repay/Qualified Mortgage (QM) rule. NAR is urging both the House and Senate to move quickly to end discrimination against mortgage companies affiliated with real estate firms.
