Summary
Home ownership protection. Authorizes the State Corporation Commission to impose a fine not exceeding $2,500 upon a mortgage lender or mortgage broker that is required to be licensed under the Mortgage Lender and Broker Act for violating any other law or regulation applicable to the conduct of the lender's or broker's business. The Housing Commission is directed to study all new federal legislation pertaining to mortgage lending and brokering, and to determine if the legislation requires changes to Virginia law. The measure authorizes the Commission to suspend or revoke a mortgage lender's or broker's license upon its failure promptly to pay when due reasonable fees to a licensed appraiser for appraisal services performed in connection with the origination or closing of a mortgage loan for a customer of the mortgage broker or lender. Other amendments to the Mortgage Lender and Broker Act (i) remove the element of the definition of a mortgage loan that has required the property securing the loan to be owner-occupied; (ii) require the Commission to conduct criminal background checks through the Central Criminal Records Exchange on every member, senior officer, director, and principal of a licensee; (iii) require licensees to conduct background checks on employees who may have access to or process personal identifying or financial information from a member of the public; (iv) require licensees to ensure that employees are properly trained in applicable state and federal mortgage lending laws and regulations; and (v) authorize the Attorney General to bring actions to enjoin violations of the federal Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act to the extent authorized by provisions of that Act.
