Processing Initial Closing Disclosures

1. Start a group chat in Teams with the LO/LOA/Processor:

I am starting my CD review for the BORROWER NAME file. Can you please advise on the below items.

• Is there a Re-Inspection/Final Inspection that we DON’T have an invoice in the file for?

• What is the desired Vesting? (not required for Finally Home or Equity First)

• Will the file be utilizing a Power of Attorney or Trust?

• Will this be a mail-away?

• What is the projected signing/closing and funding/disbursement dates?

1. Check the Milestone Comments for any special instructions/notes

2. Verify how many Borrowers and Borrower Pairs need to be disclosed

   
3. USPS vs Property Address

   1. Verify the address matches between the USPS print-out and Encompass.

   2. Make sure theCounty in Encompass/ALINA matches the County in the Prelim

Bucket/Placeholder in OG Encompass = USPS

Bucket/Placeholder in ALINA = Property: USPS …or… USPS

1. Check what type of Loan Program we are using. In addition to the “Loan Program” field, check the indicator boxes.

1. Check to see if there is subordinate financing

   1. If the loan program name has “DPA” in it, there’s subordinate financing

   2. Check the VOAL screen, if there is a lien/file, there’s subordinate financing

   3. If the LTV/CLTV/HCLTV are different numbers, there’s subordinate financing

2. Check the “Manage Borrowers” drop-down to see how many total borrowers we have

1. (ID) Identification vs Spelling of all Borrower’s Name – Verify all borrower’s names are spelled correctly according to their ID (not required for Finally Home or Equity First)

Bucket/Placeholder in OG Encompass = Borrower(s) Identification

Bucket/Placeholder in ALINA = “QC: Driver’s License” or “Credit: Drivers License/Govt Issued ID”

1. Borrower Information – Vesting (Forms)

   1. Check the “Manner in which Title will be held” drop-down. This should have a selection. If it doesn’t, write this down as a question to ask the LO/LOA/Processor. Click the “Build Final Vesting” button.

For Finally Home:

• Insert “by Mason Duke program administrator” in the “Manner in which Title will be held” drop-down

• Click the “Build Final Vesting” button

• In the “Final Vesting to Read” section, delete “by Mason Duke program administrator”

1. Disclosure Tracking (Tools)

   1. Look when the last (LE) Loan Estimate was sent. Navigate to the eFolder and find it. See if any of the key loan terms has changed. If it has, notify your supervisor.

Bucket/Placeholder in ALINA = LE Package #

• Loan Type – FNBA ITIN loans will show Conventional

• Rate Lock checkbox - If the “N” box is checked on the LE, check to see if the Interest Rate is locked. If it’s not, we can’t issue a CD.

If it is locked but the Rate Lock Agreement hasn’t been sent out, we will need to send the Rate Lock Agreement with the Initial CD. We will also need to uncheck the COC for LE and check the COC for CD. (for ITIN’s with FNBA, we CANNOT issue an initial rate lock on the initial CD)

• Loan Amount – Did it change?

• Interest Rate – Did it change?

Screen in ALINA = Borrower Summary II Enhanced

• When was the LE signed? – We cannot issue an Initial CD the same date the last LE was sent or signed. It has to be the next business day.

1. If the Lien Position shows “2nd,” update the Purchase Price to…

1. 2015 Itemization vs Title Draft CD/Settlement Statement

   1. If the Lien Position shows “2nd” delete all fees and skip the remaining steps for this section

   2. 800. Items Payable in Connection with Loan - These should match the amount on the last LE:

      1. Loan Origination Fees (see DPA & Specialty Fee Chart if applicable)

      2. Processing Fees

      3. Underwriting Fees

      4. Document Preparation Fees

1. Appraisal Fee – Review the amount on the Invoice and whether it has been paid already. Open the Fee Details icon next to the Appraisal Fee in Encompass. The amount in Encompass/ALINA should either match or be higher than the amount on the Invoice (it should not be lower). Make sure the (POC) Paid Outside of Closing amount matches the amount already paid.

1. Do not change these fees:

   1. Credit Report (not required for Finally Home or Equity First)

   2. Tax Service

   3. Flood Certification

1. Line 802e Origination/Discount Point – This number will equal 100 minus the Price on the Rate Sheet (not applicable for Finally Home, Equity First or FNBA ITIN)

Example:

100 – 96.838 = 3.162

1. 900. Items Required by Lender to be Paid in Advance

• Daily Int. Charges – Make sure the date after “Interest from” is at least 3 business days from the date of the CD

• Homeowner’s Ins. –The annual premium on the HOI Policy/Invoice/Quote should be within pennies of the amount in Encompass

1. 1000. Reserves Deposited with Lender

   1. Aggregate Setup

      1. Cushion - Every state except Nevada should have 2 months of Cushion for Property Taxes and Hazard Insurance

      2. Property Tax Due Dates – Reference the Tax Schedule excel sheet for the upcoming due dates

      3. Hazard Insurance - This date should reflect the date after the Expiration Date on the Homeowner’s Insurance Policy

1. Mortgage Insurance – If the loan requires MI, there needs to be 12 “1’s” starting with the first month after closing

   1. FHA – Will always have MI

   2. Conventional – Only required if LTV is above 80%

1. 1100. Title Charges

   1. 2015 Settlement Service Provider List – This company name/address should be different from our actual settlement agent listed on the Title Draft CD. If it’s different, check the “Borrower did shop for” checkbox denoted by “B.”

1. Match the fees from the Title Draft CD

• Note: If the Loan Amount on the Title Draft CD is the same or slightly higher than the Loan Amount in Encompass, you can update the fees. If the Loan Amount on the Title Draft CD is lower than the Loan Amount in Encompass, do NOT update the fees. Request an updated Title Draft CD from the branch.

• Owner’s Title Insurance – Should be marked Seller Obligated

• Endorsements – The total fee for all Endorsements can be lumped together. Examples:

1. 1200. Government Recording and Transfer Charges

   1. Recording Fee and Transfer Tax – Do not update these amounts

2. Verify the Seller Credit matches Purchase Contract
