Anti-Steering rules are a pain! Does my bank have to follow them?

Answered by:

Question:

Is my bank exempt from the anti-steering requirements (i.e. giving the applicant 3 other loan options) in the LO Comp rules of 1026.36?

Answer:

Maybe. The anti-steering rules are primarily directed to mortgage brokers, but that doesn’t mean your bank is automatically exempted. The commentary exempts employees of the creditor on a transaction, but whether or not your institution table funds, or acts as a broker for another creditor, could impact this exemption.
