The CFPB is facing a balancing act as it attempts to expand the massive Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA) mortgage database. The Dodd-Frank Act requires the CFPB to expand data requirements, but the agency went beyond what was suggested by the law, proposing to add fields for home equity lines of credit, reverse mortgages and multi-family properties. Now, lenders are protesting that the CFPB went too far, while consumer advocates argue it hasn't gone far enough. The proposal was designed to make lenders provide more details on why a loan was accepted or rejected and disclose more information on the loan, including the age and credit score of homebuyers, the property value and details on the interest rate.
