The Department requires
mortgagors/borrowers and mortgagors/lenders to execute a Building
Loan Agreement setting forth terms and conditions under which
progress payments may be advanced during project construction.
These agreements are to be executed before initial endorsement of
the mortgage to insurance.
There has been no program
change. However, the number of respondents increased due to more
accurate reporting. The threshold for submissions remained the
same, at three times. But the variation of participation showed
from office to office resulted in a decrease in burden hours for
the employees as well as lending institutions.
