This summer, the CFPB issued its long-awaited proposed rule amending the mortgage servicing rules under Regulation X, with a focus on loss mitigation procedures, foreclosure protections, and language access. These changes were previewed by the CFPB as a means to streamline, and add flexibility to, the loss mitigation process, in light of the industry's successful efforts during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the CFPB's proposal also significantly expands borrower protections during the loss mitigation process, creates extensive new operational challenges for servicers, and leaves many concerning questions based on the proposed language. The mortgage servicing industry responded by submitting numerous comment letters, appropriately voicing a range of concerns with the proposed changes. We now await further action from the CFPB. On this episode, Ballard Spahr lawyers discuss the regulatory and litigation impacts of the proposed rule, including: 1.         Detailed analysis of the proposed changes 2.         Potential approaches to loss mitigation, under the revised scheme 3.         Practical impacts on loss mitigation and foreclosure from an operational, cost, and liability standpoint 4.         Specific pain points under the proposed language, and topics requiring clarification, refinement, or pushback 5.         Language access requirements, and the impact from an operational, cost, and liability standpoint 6.         Implications of the rulemaking in a post-Chevron world Rich Andreano, a Partner and Leader of Ballard Spahr's Mortgage Banking group, moderates today's episode, and he is joined by Reid Herlihy and Matt Morr, Partners in the Group.

Ever wondered how the gears of mortgage banking truly operate behind the financial facade? Prepare to be enlightened as I bring you an exclusive chat with none other than Richard Christopher "Chris" Whalen, a vanguard in the financial sector whose career has been as varied as it is impressive. From his early days as a Volcker appointee to his pioneering efforts in founding Institutional Risk Analytics, Chris shares unparalleled insights that unravel the industry's complexity, forecast the future of banking indexes, and even tease an upcoming ETF launch. In our thought-provoking exchange, we navigate the tumultuous waters of real estate markets, dissecting the phenomena of surging property values in previously overlooked areas. With a critical eye, we scrutinize and challenge the well-worn narratives crafted by Wall Street, addressing the overlooked market abnormalities pre-pandemic, the Federal Reserve's policy impacts, and the liquidity crunch in aging bonds. We discuss demographic shifts and capital flows, while Chris illuminates the potential shift towards persistently higher interest rates, and the challenges that credit and interest rate experts face in an era rife with misleading narratives. We take an incisive look at the banking industry's hurdles, especially in the commercial sector where non-performing loans loom large, and the strategies of niche players like Bank OZK and the competitive dynamics of mortgage servicing rights ownership. Finally, we shed light on the resilience of certain mortgage providers, exemplified through a personal account of efficient customer service that won over sluggish competitors, and muse over the repeating patterns in business practices, promising to keep these enriching conversations flowing to keep you abreast of the evolving mortgage landscape. Connect further with Chris at Whalen Global Advisors https://www.rcwhalen.com.Connect with Bill Bymel and First Lien Capital:Linktree: https://linktr.ee/billbymelTo learn more, visit:https://billbymel.com/Listen to more episodes on Mission Matters:https://missionmatters.com/author/bill-bymel/
