  • (1888PressRelease) October 05, 2017 - The D.C. Fly-in was organized to discuss Regulatory and GSE reforms. Added to that were discussions about changes in post-disaster policies to allow more efficient resolution of damage assessments for homes where the loan has closed but does not have an FHA insurance certificate.

    Mr. Shenkman and the other CMLA members met and talked with the Acting FHA Commissioner, Chief Economist for Vice President Pence and a senior counsel for the House Financial Services Committee. The status of both regulatory reform and GSE reform were key topics for Mark Calabria and Clinton Jones, Chief Pence Economist and Senior House Financial Services Counsel.

    CFPB Director, Richard Cordray met with CMLA members to discuss ways for mid-size and small lenders to get more direct, written answers from the CFPB on regulatory issues and interpretations. Mr. Shenkman and the other CMLA members met with the staffs of Senators from the Senate Banking Committee to urge consideration of their co-sponsorship of CMLA's regulatory reform bill, which would exempt small lenders from CFPB supervision and enforcement. CMLA members then met with the Republican and Democratic staffs of the Senate Banking Committee to discuss both regulatory reform and GSE reform.

    According to Mr. Shenkman, "We (CMLA members) got the opportunity to explain to Richard Cordray how independent Mortgage Bankers have the enhanced ability to understand borrower’s unique needs and service them at a personalized level big banks are not set up to do.” Shenkman further explains, “I felt a high sense of confidence after meeting with Mr. Cordray that he took our input to heart and is motivated to make real changes that will help Independent Loan Bankers like Priority Financial Network and the other CMLA members.”
