I did not write this, I received in an email this afternoon and thought I would share. Very cute!
A Christmas Respa Poem
T'was the week before Christmas
> When all through the lands,
> LO's and Closers were wringing their hands.
> RESPA changes are coming,
> They all started to worry,
> We'd better get trained, and get trained in a hurry!
> We all kept on hoping
> There would be a delay.
> But HUD said, "No Way," it's all here to stay.
> "We love our new HUD
> And our new GFE,
> Don't fret, don't worry, it's as simple as can be."
> We all shook our heads,
> Threw our hands to the sky.
> What were you smoking? You must have been high!
> You took a one page doc
> And changed it to three.
> The Regs don't match up,
> So now what do we do?
> HUD says, "No comment, It's all up to you."
> No info on TILA,
> HMDA, REG B.
> We are totally screwed, why can't they see??
> In a time when some borrowers
> Think lenders are scary,
> This doesn't make sense,
> Not one little bit.
> So we will all do our best
> To put borrowers at ease.
> But make more reform, please, please, please!
> Please bring someone in
> Who knows just what to do.
> What is best for both borrowers AND lenders too.
> We are all still waiting,
> Though not holding our breath
> And hoping the government doesn't "Reg" us to death.
> So, on this week before Christmas,
> I'd like to wish you
> Good luck with RESPA, I need it too!
