West Virginia Law
This course satisfies the state-specific continuing education requirement for West Virginia Licensed Mortgage Loan Originators (MLOs). During this 1 hour course, we will provide an overview of the laws and regulations the West Virginia Mortgage Professional must know and abide by.
The course is divided into three sections:
Section 1: License Maintenance – Discusses the newest state requirements for licensing renewal and includes license maintenance standards.
Section 2: Disciplinary Action – Details the license revocation and disciplinary action process.
Section 3: Compliance – Describes the general state rules mortgage brokers must be aware of in any origination, including both generic prohibited and required rules of conduct as well as rules specific to fees, disclosures and advertising.
Federal Law Requirement – RESPA and SAFE
1) RESPA – Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (enacted in 1974 implemented by Reg X). Establishes specific disclosure requirements in the real estate settlement process and prohibits specific practices such as kickbacks.
Our discussion includes key insights into the new GFE and discusses the differences between the new and old GFE.
2) SAFE Act — Secure and Fair Enforcement Act for Mortgage Licensing (enacted in 2008). This act is a key component of the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 (Title V).
