I am conducting a RESPA review and noticed that on an initial GFE the appraisal fee was listed as $450. On a susequent GFE, after locking the rate, the appraisal fee was listed as $285. This was apparently due to the fact the borrower made a payment outside closing of $165. No mention of any payment or credit on GFE.
Should they have listed the entire fee and then shown a borrower credit for the $165? If so, where does the credit go? Thanks!
