3.86- What are Examples of “change of circumstance”?

Before we confer to examples that qualify as ‘change of circumstance’ we must ascertain what the term actually means. Such circumstances arise when a Revised Loan Estimate is to be granted thus this will have an impact on potential remuneration.

A different term could have been employed.


We have six requirements in totality by virtue of Section1026.19(e)(3)(iv). TRID successfully encapsulates what these six reasons comprises. Firstly, settlement charges could be the point of impact and examples of this include the occurrence of a natural catastrophe. This could also be some unforeseeable event pertaining to either the parties involved or the transaction itself.

The rest of the reasons encompass a doubt of eligibility and the consumer asking for a revision etc.
