\"Trump's<\/a>
Dodd-Frank regulation (from uschamber.com)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Change is not always easy.\u00a0 Sometimes we choose to change and other times we are forced to change.\u00a0 The Great Recession forced massive change to many aspects of our lives \u2013 mostly financial.\u00a0 Many found themselves out of work because of the recession, and many home owners lost their homes to foreclosure; while the rest of us searched for ways to cope.\u00a0 It’s Mr. Trump’s housing market now.<\/span><\/p>\n

As a result, the Dodd\u2013Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act<\/a> was quickly pieced together and signed into law in 2010.\u00a0 \u201cDodd-Frank\u201d, contained over two-thousand pages of regulations and rules, many of which were to be created at a later time by many agencies and unelected bureaucrats.\u00a0 Dodd-Frank also created the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, which took over RESPA, lending and consumer finance markets enforcement responsibilities.\u00a0 The CFPB created the \u201cQualified Residential Mortgage<\/a>\u201d and \u201cKnow Before You Owe<\/a>\u201d rules that significantly impacted the mortgage and housing industries.<\/p>\n

The purpose of Dodd-Frank<\/a> and the CFPB was well intentioned as Congress sought a solution to prohibit future crises.\u00a0 In the uncertain financial atmosphere that ensued, consumers wanted accountability from Wall Street and mortgage lenders.\u00a0 While some continue to generally blame Wall Street and the mortgage industry for the financial crisis, the reality is that the dynamics that created the financial crises were complex.\u00a0 And one can surmise from the many hearings, books, dissertations, and working papers that the crux of the financial crisis<\/a> was widespread fraud that took advantage of a hot real estate market and easy money.<\/p>\n

Six years after Dodd-Frank, the rules and regulations keep coming.\u00a0 Writing for the US Chamber of Commerce\u2019s \u201cAbove the Fold,\u201d J.D. Harrison pointed out that Dodd-Frank has created over 27,000 new federal regulations by thirty-two federal agencies impacting many industries (Dodd-Frank\u2019s Regulatory Nightmare in One Rather Mesmerizing Illustration<\/em><\/a>; uschamber.com).\u00a0 Compared to the previous Wall Street reform in 2002, which had two agencies issuing regulations to only five industries.\u00a0 Harrison stated that the Sarbanes-Oxley Act \u201cbasically sought more corporate transparency and accountability<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n

Many have associated Dodd-Frank with the ongoing slow economic recovery<\/a>, citing increased consumer costs and restricted lending – which effects the housing market, home buyers and sellers.<\/strong><\/h2>\n

An example of increasing consumer costs is the CFPB\u2019s TILA-RESPA Integrated Disclosure.\u00a0 The Mortgage Bankers Association (mba.org) recently reported that compliance with TRID costs on average $210 per mortgage<\/a>, some of which is recouped from the consumer.\u00a0 The rule is also responsible for \u201cslower application to closing times.\u201d<\/p>\n

A recent appellate case<\/a> highlighted some of these Dodd-Frank outcomes.\u00a0 The CFPB sought fines against a mortgage lender for their years of compliance with HUD\u2019s interpretation of a rule; the fines were imposed retroactively for not complying with a new CFPB reinterpretation of the same rule. Additionally, the court focused on the CFPB\u2019s unilateral ability to impose rules and fines without oversight.<\/p>\n

It’s Mr. Trump’s housing market now<\/a>.<\/h3>\n

Repeal and Replace<\/em> is a talking point that is not exclusively for the Affordable Care Act.\u00a0 Shortly after Donald Trump\u2019s election as the forty-fifth President of the United States, many industry insiders and pundits are already anticipating the future of Dodd-Frank and the CFPB.\u00a0 Mr. Trump’s plan for financial services<\/a> is posted to the President-Elect\u2019s site (greatagain.gov) stating: \u201cThe Dodd-Frank economy does not work for working people.\u00a0 Bureaucratic red tape and Washington mandates are not the answer. \u00a0The Financial Services Policy Implementation team will be working to dismantle the Dodd-Frank Act and replace it with new policies to encourage economic growth and job creation.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n
