Mortgage Lenders now must register in Database and get finger-printed.

Mortgage Lenders must register in Database. While searching online,I ran across this story about Mortgage Lenders must register in Database. The new requirements were mandated by a bill passed by Congress two years ago but Federal bank regulators approved them on Wednesday. Doing this they feel will crack down on the shady mortgage brokers and lenders who many people feel contributed to this whole mortgage mess that we are trying to get out of.

So what do you feel about this? Would this work? Is this going a little bit too far? Please reply with your comments. I definitely want to know what anyone in the Mortgage Industry feel about this. Click on this link to read the story Mortgage lenders must register in database

I worked in the banking industry 30 years ago and we had to get fingerprinted as part of the hiring process. I like that DNA is available.

'Can't imagine it will matter in the slightest, that it will do anything to "fix" the bad lenders out there.  In the meantime, most of the industry (in my experience, anyway) is made up of professionals with integrity.

As a result of SB133 on January 9, 2009 -- Title Insurance Sales Professionals in California also have to be licensed and fingerprinted -- a sign of the times to better control the behavior of Sales Professionals.  Those reps that are professional -- have nothing to worry about.
