NAMB Seeks Industry Input for QM Impact Survey

Oct 30, 2013

The Government Affairs team of NAMB—The Association of Mortgage Professionals continues to work on mortgage professionals behalf with our regulators and lawmakers ... and we continue to make progress. The data we collected regarding mortgage broker credits to consumers was very helpful. Click here to view a copy of NAMB's letter to the CFPB on mortgage broker credits. In the meantime, please fill out this quick one page survey (NAMB QM Impact Survey). It is imperative we get this data. Don't worry, we will not share any of your personal data with anyone outside of NAMB. Thank you everyone for responding to NAMB's request for loan data. We are still compiling data from NAMB supporters and your help has been instrumental. If you have questions, please e-mail Rick Bettencourt at [email protected]. Please read the following article, "The Take on Closing-Cost Rebates," written by nationally syndicated columnist, Ken Harney, regarding mortgage brokers. Just remember, NAMB fights for consumers and mortgage professionals everyday. Help us with our efforts. If you are a member, thank you for your support. If you are a future member, please visit www.joinnamb.org and support your livelihood. Also, don't be afraid to call your representatives and tell them about the unintended consequences regarding consumers access to credit and the disparate treatment of small business mortgage professionals.
