Mortgage Servicing Compliance Requirements and Updates 2 Part Webinar 2023 | Iowa Bankers Association | 11 September 2023 | Webinar

Servicing mortgage loans is a difficult and complex process, with many laws and regulations with which to comply. And particularly after the pandemic, regulators are looking very carefully at both how servicers are servicing loans, as well as which borrowers receive what type of treatment.

There are very detailed requirements in RESPA as to how to service mortgage loans, and when a borrower has defaulted, the requirements become even more complex. In addition, fair lending and UDAP/UDAAP risk is substantial.
