Do we report a loan to payoff a contract as a purchase or a refinance? I remember a thread about this from before, but cannot find it.

Additionally, if the loan is for a larger amount than the contract because they are also paying off some credit card debt, do we report the full amount or just the contract amount?

Thanks.

We report them as refis for HMDA. Some report them as purchases.

Our reasoning is there is an existing debt secured by a dwelling and the borrower has obtained partial ownership via the contract.

The transaction is also subject to the ROR.

You would report the full loan amount.
