|
| 7 | | Sec. 15. Ability to repay. A creditor or broker shall not |
| 8 | | transfer, deal
in, offer,
or
make a high risk home loan if the
|
| 9 | | the creditor or broker does not believe at the
time the loan
is
|
| 10 | | consummated that the borrower will be able to make the |
| 11 | | scheduled
payments to repay the obligation based upon a |
| 12 | | consideration of his or her
current and
expected income, |
| 13 | | current obligations, employment status, and other financial
|
| 14 | | resources (other than the borrower's equity in the dwelling |
| 15 | | that secures
repayment of the loan). A borrower shall be |
| 16 | | presumed to be able to repay the
loan if, at the time the loan |
| 17 | | is consummated, or at the time of the first rate
adjustment, in |
| 18 | | the case of a lower introductory interest rate, the borrower's
|
| 19 | | scheduled monthly payments on the loan (including principal, |
| 20 | | interest, taxes,
insurance, and assessments), combined with |
| 21 | | the scheduled payments for all
other disclosed debts, do not |
| 22 | | exceed 50% of the borrower's monthly gross
income. |
