The section requires the Director of the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection to report within 270 days of enactment to the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs and the House Committee on Financial Services on how loan originators are paid across the home mortgage market. The report must cover how often they are paid by salary, by commission at a fixed percentage of the credit extended, by commission on some other basis, by a mix of salary and commission, by loan volume, and by commission with a floor or ceiling on pay.

That sentence, in plain words

A consumer agency must send a report to two committees in Congress. It covers how the people who arrange home loans get paid. It must say how often each way of paying is used.

What this is about

A loan originator is the person who sets up a home loan. Some get a salary. Some get a cut of the loan. The report counts each kind.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
