Settlement Date, Closing Date, and Note Date
08/11/2003
On the HUD1, I've always understood that the Settlement/Closing date must be no later than the note date. Recently, a lending officer gave me a differing opinion. To get a definitive answer, I called one very knowledgable person who told me that "The completed HUD1 must be given to the borrower no later than settlement, with settlement occurring when the note and trust deed are signed by the borrower". To get a second opinion, I called another very knowledgable person who told me that the settlement/closing date may be later than the note date because settlement occurs when the funding happens.
Reg Z & Construction Loans To Family Members -- Bankers Systems, Inc.

Please help us resolve this dispute. The question is if a loan should be considered for consumer or commercial purpose for compliance with Regulation Z. The borrower is an individual acting as a builder for his son-in-law. He has previously built two homes for himself. His income, however, is not made as a builder. He works in an unrelated capacity. He is also not making a profit on the construction loan. I think Regulation Z would apply to this loan. Please help.
