What Is a Closing Disclosure?

A Closing Disclosure is a five-page form that US mortgage lenders must provide at least three business days before closing. It lists the final loan terms, projected payments, and all closing costs, so the borrower can review them and compare them with the earlier Loan Estimate before signing.

The Three-Day Rule

Certain changes, such as a higher APR beyond a set tolerance or a change in loan product, require a new three-day review period.

What to Check

Borrowers typically compare the interest rate, monthly payment, cash to close, and fees with the Loan Estimate.
