I had a customer who just informed me that they would be out of state for closing on a purchase transaction and will be using a power of attorney. There will be a cost to prepare and record this document. Do I need to do a new good faith estimate with these charges? Or is this considered voluntary by customer and just listed on the settlement statement?

I would redisclose because that POA recordation fee is going to affect your total "recording costs" which does have a tolerance OF 10%. In cases where we DIDNT redisclose our co. had to pay for it with the cure on the front of hud. FAQ # 2 Pg 16 under "Changed Circumstance" refers to additional docs needing to be recorded at closing.

Page 18 specifically addresses POAs.
