What is a Lender's Credit Disclosure?

Lender credit disclosures are an important aspect of the loan process for both borrowers and lenders. These disclosures provide information about the terms and conditions of a loan, including the annual percentage rate (APR), the amount of any fees, and any other charges associated with the loan. In Idaho, as in other states, these disclosures are required by law to help borrowers understand the costs of borrowing and to compare different loan offers.

In Idaho, the state's Department of Finance is responsible for enforcing the state's consumer lending laws, including those related to lender credit disclosures. These laws require that lenders provide borrowers with accurate and clear information about the terms and conditions of their loans, including the APR, any fees and other charges, and the total cost of the loan.

One of the key components of a lender credit disclosure is the annual percentage rate (APR). The APR is the annual cost of borrowing, expressed as a percentage of the loan amount. It includes not only the interest rate, but also any other costs associated with the loan, such as origination fees, points, and closing costs. The APR is intended to give borrowers a way to compare the costs of different loan offers, since it takes into account all of the costs of the loan.

In Idaho, lenders must provide borrowers with the APR for their loan at the time of application, as an estimate, and again at the time of closing. This allows borrowers to compare the costs of different loan offers, and to make an informed decision about which loan to choose. Additionally, lenders must provide a written explanation of how the APR is calculated, so that borrowers can better understand how the rate is determined.

Another important component of lender credit disclosures in Idaho is the disclosure of any fees or other charges associated with the loan. These can include origination fees, points, closing costs, and other miscellaneous charges. Lenders must provide borrowers with a detailed list of all fees and charges associated with the loan, as well as the total cost of the loan. This allows borrowers to compare the costs of different loan offers, and to make an informed decision about which loan to choose.

It is important to note that while lender credit disclosures are a requirement in Idaho, they don't guarantee that a loan is affordable or suitable for a borrower. The borrower should still make sure to review the terms and conditions of the loan, and to compare the costs of different loan offers before making a decision.

In Idaho, lenders are also required to provide the CD in writing three days before the loan is consummated. It allows the borrower to withdraw from a loan application without penalty within three days before the loan is consummated. This gives the borrower an opportunity to review the terms and conditions of the loan, and to make an informed decision about whether or not to proceed with the loan.

Unlike the Truth-in-Lending (TIL) disclosure which is an estimate, the Lenders Credit Disclosure (CD) is issued just before closing and reflects the final numbers.

In summary, lender credit disclosures are an important aspect of the loan process in Idaho. They are required by law to help borrowers understand the costs of borrowing and to compare different loan offers. These disclosures include information about the APR, any fees and other charges associated with the loan, and the total cost of the loan. Additionally, lenders are required to provide a written explanation of how the APR is calculated, and a written notice of the right to cancel the loan within three days of consummation. Borrowers should review these disclosures carefully and compare the costs of different loan offers to make an informed decision about which loan to choose.
