Enrolled Bill Summary

Legislative Session: 85(R)

Senate Bill 830

Senate Author:  Rodríguez

Effective:  Vetoed

House Sponsor:  Walle


            Senate Bill 830 amends the Finance Code to require a mortgage servicer to provide an annual accounting statement to the borrower of certain loans secured by a lien on residential real property and to provide for the recourse of the borrower for a mortgage servicer's failure to timely provide the statement.

 

                        Governor's Reason for Veto: "Senate Bill 830 imposes burdensome new regulatory and paperwork requirements on those who offer seller-financed mortgages. This sort of regulation could increase the price and reduce the availability of these mortgages."
