The 2012 NAMB Legislative & Regulatory Conference is set for Sunday-Tuesday, March 18-20 at the Capitol Skyline Hotel, located at 10 "I" Street, Southwest in Washington, D.C. The number one reason you should attend this event is the satisfaction of knowing you are doing your part to ensure that mortgage broker issues are heard on Capitol Hill. You are the best spokesperson for our issues. Your participation benefits you, the industry and your clients as a whole, by strengthening the broker’s presence in the halls of Congress.

Highlights will include:

►Mortgage industry trade association panel discussion featuring representatives from NAMB, the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA), the National Association of Realtors (NAR) and the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB)

►A closer look at the powers of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) and what they will be looking for in their audits

►Loan originator (LO) compensation and the impact of HR 2509, the Preserving Consumers’ Mortgage Origination Choices Act of 2011, sponsored by Rep. Gary Miller (R-CA)
