Practical Application of the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act
This course focuses on Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA) data collection and reporting. Despite renewed focus on mortgage compliance and fair lending practices, violations of the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA) remain a common occurrence. Though HMDA violations are most often related to data reporting errors, fines and other penalties may still be imposed if errors are frequent and recurring.
