Q1.
A lender provides a borrower with a Loan Estimate that shows an APR of 4.5% and a total
interest percentage (TIP) of 50%. Three days later, the lender discovers that the borrower's

A. No action required because the change is B. Issue a corrected Loan Estimate within
less than 0.25% three business days of discovery
C. Provide a revised Loan Estimate only if D. Redeliver the Loan Estimate with the
the borrower requests it corrected APR before closing
Correct: B - Issue a corrected Loan Estimate within three business days of discovery
Rationale:Under TRID, if there is a change in the APR that increases by more than 0.125%
(for fixed-rate loans), a revised Loan Estimate must be provided within three business days of
the event causing the change. Here, the APR increased by 0.25%, exceeding the tolerance,
so a corrected Loan Estimate is required.

Correct: B - The fee violates RESPA's anti-kickback provisions regardless of disclosure
