house Bill H.R. 3211

Changes to Mortgage Reform: Altering Factors That Determine Points and Fees

Argument in favor

Improves access to credit and qualified mortgages for low- and moderate-income borrowers. More people would have access to a qualified mortgage, and this would in turn would be a step toward the revitalization of the U.S. housing market.

Argument opposed

Weakens mortgage reform. Undermines consumer protection. Provides incentives for lenders to steer families into high-risk, high-fee loans they do not understand and cannot afford, effectively recreating one of the catalysts for the 2007-08 financial crisis.
