TRID (TILA-RESPA Integrated Disclosure)
TRID is the federal regulation that combines the Truth in Lending Act (TILA) and the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA) into a unified disclosure process. It governs how and when borrowers receive the Loan Estimate and Closing Disclosure.
TRID requires lenders to provide a Loan Estimate within three business days of application and a Closing Disclosure at least three business days before closing. These mandatory waiting periods are designed to give borrowers time to review terms and prevent last-minute surprises.
Certain changes to loan terms — such as interest rate adjustments or loan program changes — can restart the mandatory three-day review period.
Why This Matters: TRID protects you. If someone tells you they can "close tomorrow" without disclosures or waiting periods, that is a red flag. The timeline exists to give you transparency and protection.
Common question
What is TRID?
TRID is the rule that combines TILA and RESPA into one disclosure process. It requires a Loan Estimate within three days of application and a Closing Disclosure at least three days before closing.
Can my closing be delayed by TRID?
Yes. Certain changes (e.g., rate or program changes) can restart the three-day period. The wait is mandatory to give you time to review — it is a consumer protection, not a delay tactic.
