closing costs may not be paid by the
consumer because they are financed by the creditor, but are nonetheless imposed
on the
consumer.

Loan Estimate and the
Closing Disclosure, the Bureau is including some of these disclosures in the integrated forms and also requiring the provision of the separate Post-Consummation Escrow Cancellation Notice and separate Partial Payment Policy disclosure because doing so will benefit
consumers and reduce burden
on covered persons for the reasons discussed below.
Accordingly, the Bureau has determined to require the alternative Calculating Cash to
Close table permitted under § 1026.38 (e) if the optional alternative table under § 1026.37 (h)(2) is used, because use of a similar format and content for the table
on both the
Loan Estimate and the
Closing Disclosure will enable
consumers to compare changes more easily between the estimated and final terms and costs, aiding
consumer understanding of the transaction, which is one of the purposes of the integrated disclosures under Dodd - Frank Act sections 1098 and 1100A.
