State's Public Records-Record Retention

10/18/2020

We want to know if there is a vendor or website our bank can utilize to quickly retrieve public records online from various Secretary of State offices, tax cards & tax bills to pay escrowed taxes, retrieve recorded real estate docs i.e. recorded Warranty/Quitclaim Deeds, MTG-DOT and AOR's. The majority of states have their records available online but behind a paywall where you have to pay for each individual page of each document. There's 25+ of us between Lending, Legal, and Compliance that need access at our bank to these docs. In my previous banking career, we utilized a website called NETRONLINE.com with a paid subscription but it appears it is no longer available. Is there a substitute?

Adding Co-Borrower After Closing Disclosure

12/09/2018

If an early Closing Disclosure has been issued and the borrower now wants to add a co-borrower, what are the compliance issues that need to be reviewed? Under Reg Z, is there a new 7 day waiting period to close due to a 'new' application' with the co borrower? Do we go off of the date of application of the 'co borrower' or the original primary borrower application? This is not technically a changed circumstance, but if no fees are increased that break tolerances, nor a program change, is there an issue?

Collateral Address- Real Estate Secured (TRID)

07/18/2021

When populating the collateral address for consumer closed-end, real estate secured loans (TRID), is there an industry best standard for WHERE we obtain this address from? I know that it must always include the zip code, and a location (if an address via US Postal Service is not available), but I'm curious if there is an unspoken standard of what document this is best obtained from, such as the counties property record card, the written evaluation provided to us from a certified appraiser, borrower attested to, etc.
