People who say that residential lending and the state or federal governments aren’t intertwined have to look no further than the CFPB.  Their new office spaces fit 550. There are 1,100 currently. They will get there? Theoretically only Congress can actually shut down the CFPB, in the Senate with 60 or more votes, and the CFPB is still functioning with a regulatory agenda… which doesn’t include RESPA! 1974’s RESPA could be too tough to eliminate, especially Section 8, the anti-kickback provision and no one wants to come out against that. On today’s Mortgage Law Today (3 PM ET), presented by Polunsky Beitel Green, panelists will have a debate on the future of RESPA Section 8, examining whether the regulation still serves its intended purpose or if the mortgage industry would be better served by reform. Join Phillip Schulman, Senior Counsel at Mayer Brown, and Suzanne Garwood, Managing Director at JPMorgan Chase, join Brian Levy, Loretta Salzano, and Marty Green. Tomorrow, on Lender One’s Mortgage Matters at 11AM PT, NewFed’s Chief Strategy Officer Rick Scherer, CMB, will address tech-driven innovation, setting and implementing strategy, and companies striving to grab market share.
