RESPA (Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act) requires lenders to provide buyers with a Closing Disclosure at least how many business days before closing?
Why 3 business days Is Correct
Answer B: 3 business days
Exam Tip: Escrow & Title
Escrow questions test the neutral third-party role and the sequence of closing events. Remember that the escrow agent acts as a dual agent for both buyer and seller and cannot advocate for either side.
