Even as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) continues to fine and penalize companies that violate the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA), Illinois REALTORS® is monitoring the actions of the CFPB’s critics, which include some congressional leaders and the Trump administration.
In the March edition of DR Legal News, Jeffrey T. Baker, of Sorling Northrup Attorneys, reviews some of the latest developments concerning Prospect Mortgage, the PHH Corporation case, CFPB Director Richard Cordray and the Dodd-Frank Act.
