A construction-to-permanent loan will disburse in 5 draws over 11 months before the permanent phase begins. Which Regulation Z appendix provides a disclosure method for multiple-advance construction transactions?

Correct Answer

B) Appendix D to Regulation Z gives the method for disclosing the 2 phases

Appendix D to Regulation Z sets out how to estimate and disclose a construction loan with multiple advances, including how the construction and permanent phases are treated. Other choices: disclosing only the permanent phase leaves the construction period undisclosed; averaging is not the method; and the disclosure is due before consummation rather than at conversion. Source: 12 CFR 1026, Appendix D

Answer Options
A
Disclose an average of the 2 phases, so the figures reflect both of them
B
Appendix D to Regulation Z gives the method for disclosing the 2 phases
C
Disclose the permanent phase only, the construction draws being interim
D
No disclosure method applies until the permanent phase actually begins

Why This Is the Correct Answer

Appendix D to Regulation Z sets out how to estimate and disclose a construction loan with multiple advances, including how the construction and permanent phases are treated. Other choices: disclosing only the permanent phase leaves the construction period undisclosed; averaging is not the method; and the disclosure is due before consummation rather than at conversion.
