TRID (TILA-RESPA Integrated Disclosure)

TRID, or TILA-RESPA Integrated Disclosure, is a set of regulations implemented in the United States to improve transparency in the mortgage process. It combines two key pieces of legislation: the Truth in Lending Act (TILA) and the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA). These rules require lenders to provide borrowers with clear, comprehensive, and easy-to-understand disclosures about the terms of their loan, including costs and fees, before closing on a home. The goal is to help consumers make informed decisions and to streamline the mortgage application process, reducing confusion and promoting better financial understanding.
