  • PLEASE READ THIS STATEMENT BEFORE COMPLETING THE BOX(ES) BELOW:

    The purpose of collecting this information is to help ensure that all applicants are treated fairly and that the housing needs of communities and neighborhoods are being fulfilled. For residential mortgage lending, federal law requires that we ask applicants for their demographic information (ethnicity, sex, and race) in order to monitor our compliance with equal credit opportunity, fair housing, and home mortgage disclosure laws. You are not required to provide this information, but are encouraged to do so. You  may select one or more designations for “Ethnicity” and one or more designations for “Race”. The law provides that we may not discriminate on the basis of this information, or on whether you choose to provide it. However, if you choose not to provide the information and you have made this application in person, Federal regulations require us to note your ethnicity, sex, and race on the basis of visual observation or surname. The law also provides that we may not discriminate on the basis of age or marital status information you provide in this application. If you do not wish to provide some or all of this information, please check below.

  • RIGHT TO RECEIVE COPY OF APPRAISAL

  • This is to notify you that we may order an appraisal in connection with your loan and we may charge you for this appraisal. Upon completion of the appraisal, we will promptly provide a copy to you, even if the loan does not close.

  • UNMARRIED ADDENDUM

  • Lender instructions for using the Unmarried Addendum: The lender may use the Unmarried Addendum only when a borrower selected “Unmarried” in Section 1 and the information collected is necessary to determine how state property laws directly or indirectly affecting creditworthiness apply, including ensuring clear title. For example, the lender may use the Unmarried Addendum when the borrower resides in a state that recognizes civil unions, domestic partnerships or registered reciprocal beneficiary relationships or when the property is located in such a state. “State” means any state, the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, or any territory or possession of the United States.

  • E-SIGN ACT DISCLOSURE AND AGREEMENT

    • The Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce (“E-Sign”) Act is a federal law that authorizes the use of electronic records and electronic signatures in certain circumstances when specific conditions are met.  Affiliates should also consult their applicable state laws. Most (but not all) states have adopted the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (“UETA”), which has similar requirements to the federal E-Sign Act.
    • This form is intended to comply with the disclosure requirements of the E-Sign Act, 15 U.S.C. § 7001(c)(1).  Before sending applications and other legally required disclosures electronically (e.g., Adverse Action Notices), Affiliates must provide notice and receive consent as indicated below. 
    • Affiliates MUST also comply with ALL other provisions of the E-SIGN Act, such as (i) verifying electronic delivery, (ii) record retention, and (iii) data security.  See 15 U.S.C. §§ 7001 et seq.  See also American Bankers Association training: HFHI Privacy for Customer Contact Personnel and  Guidance Memorandum: Mortgage Rules and Regulations
    • THE DATA SECURITY PROVISIONS OF THE E-SIGN ACT INCLUDE A REQUIREMENT THAT ANY COMMUNICATIONS CONTAINING PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION (PII) MUST BE SENT IN AN ENCRYPTED MANNER.  ADDITIONALLY, ALL DOCUMENTS CONTAINING PII MUST BE SECURELY STORED AND SAFEGUARDED.

    We are pleased to offer you the opportunity to receive information about your account electronically.  If you would like to receive correspondence and notices from us electronically, instead of paper copies through the mail, please review this notice and provide your consent.

  • EQUAL CREDIT OPPORTUNITY ACT NOTICE

  • The Federal Equal Credit Opportunity Act prohibits creditors from discriminating against credit applicants on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, marital status or age (provided the applicant has the capacity to enter into a binding contract); because all or part of the applicant's income derives from any public assistance program; or because the applicant has in good faith exercised any right under the Consumer Credit Protection At. The federal agency that monitors compliance with the law concerning the company is the Federal Trade Commission, with offices at [FTC Regional Office for the Midwest region, 230 S. Dearborn St. Suite 3030 Chicago, Illinois 60604] or Federal Trade Commission, Equal Credit Opportunity, Washington DC 20580.

    You need not disclose income from alimony, child support or separate maintenance payment if you choose not to do so. However, because we operate a Special Purpose Credit Program, we may request and require, in order to determine an applicant's eligibility for the program and the affordable mortgage amount, information regarding the applicant's marital status; alimony, child support and separate maintenance income; and the spouse's financial resources.

    Accordingly, if you receive income from these sources and do not provide this information with your application, your application will be considered incomplete, and we will be unable to invite you to participate in the Habitat program.
