What does the Closing Disclosure provide?

The Closing Disclosure is a critical document in the mortgage process that outlines key details about the loan agreement, including the final loan terms and all associated settlement costs. It serves as a clear summary for the borrower, providing an itemized account of what they will owe at closing, how much will be financed, and the overall costs involved in obtaining the mortgage.

This document ensures that borrowers are fully informed about their financial obligations before they sign on the dotted line, facilitating transparency and compliance with regulatory requirements. The Closing Disclosure is especially important as it allows borrowers to compare the loan terms and costs against what was initially provided in the Loan Estimate, helping to avoid any surprises at closing.
