Webinar: Understand Financial Services Reform President Obama in mid-July signed sweeping financial services reform into law. The law creates an oversight agency for financial services companies and a consumer financial protection bureau. It also includes provisions to curb risky mortgage lending and to address appraiser selection by lenders. Your members can register for a free webinar that covers the real estate-related provisions. The webinar is Thursday, August 26, at 3 p.m., EST. Also, watch and link to a video on the law and read a summary from NAR Government Affairs.
