Plain-English explanation
TRID standardized mortgage disclosures in 2015, requiring the LE within 3 business days of application and the CD at least 3 business days before closing.
Why it matters
TRID timelines protect borrowers from last-minute surprises and enable apples-to-apples shopping.
Where you may see it
- Loan Estimate
- Closing Disclosure
- Compliance disclosures
A real-world example
The lender re-issues the CD after a fee change; the 3-day waiting period restarts before closing.
Educational and illustrative only
A common misunderstanding
TRID isn't a loan program or a type of mortgage — it's a set of disclosure timing and format rules lenders must follow.
