This 8 hour package for mortgage loan originators in Hawaii is designed to provide all of the mandatory education needed to renew your MLO license.This course is broken down into 5 modules. Each module contains:
- A section of training
- An activity in which students will read a short scenario and then answer questions about the scenario
- A quiz that consists of five questions
The first module of the course is about sweeping laws and rules that apply to mortgage loans and mortgage loan originators across the country. A review of the SAFE Act, NMLS registration, an overview of state licensing standards, Regulation Z, and Integrated Mortgage Disclosures will make the bulk of the module.
The second module deals with ethical considerations and consumer protection. Identity theft prevention and safeguarding client data start us off. Then, topics related to the Telemarketing and Consumer Fraud and Abuse Prevention Act take center stage. Several case studies will be presented, as will other recommendations on compliance with such laws as Regulation N. Fair lending practices and balancing one’s business aspirations with the health of the market are emphasized.
The third module examines non-traditional mortgage loan products like adjustable rate mortgages and reverse mortgages. Federal Housing Administration updates are first, then the Home Equity Conversion Mortgage program is featured, along with its changes. Various other types of loans and financing options are considered, including government programs, high-cost loans and their requirements, and portfolio loans.
A final exam will ask 25 questions randomly drawn from the general education portion of the package.
The state-specific course begins with an overview of the regulating agencies for MLOs in Hawaii, and examines the recent legal changes that affect loan originators.
Students then review licensing and sponsorship requirements for MLOs, and the exemptions to these. They will also look at license renewal and reinstatement information.
We will next examine the practices of a mortgage loan originator, and what is expected of an MLO. This includes topics like licensing fees, mortgage call reports, and continuing education needs.
In the section on rules and violations, students will see what actions are prohibited under HRS §454F-17, and what the penalties for committing such actions may be. After this, a review of an MLO’s rights and responsibilities during an investigation follows. This includes the right to confidentiality of some types of information.
Next we examine the Hawaii Mortgage Loan Recovery Fund, including its purpose and funding, proposed legislation, and the statute of limitations.
Finally, we conclude with some industry-specific news and recent developments relevant to mortgage loan originators in Hawaii.
An additional 15 question final exam about the state modules will finish off this package.
