What is TRID in Mortgage?

TRID stands for “TILA-RESPA Integrated Disclosures”, a set of two forms that combines existing forms required under the Truth in Lending Act (TILA) and the Real Estate Settlement Providers Act (RESPA).

Introduce TRID

Old Forms

Good Faith Estimate (GFE): estimate of fees and settlement costs

New Forms

Loan Estimate (LE): GFE + Initial TIL

While most of the information on these new, combined forms are the same, there are additional timing requirements that now apply to when these forms must be issued.

Once a CD is issued, revised LEs are no longer allowed.

Closing Disclosure (CD)
