The payoff statement is provided by the lending institutions and indicates the amount owed to the lender at the time of the closing. It's vital that title and escrow professionals find out the exact amount owed at the closing.
(c) A beneficiary, or his or her authorized agent, shall, on the written demand of an entitled person, or his or her authorized agent, prepare and deliver a payoff demand statement to the person demanding it within 21 days of the receipt of the demand.
Under federal law, the servicer must generally send you a payoff statement within seven business days of your request, subject to a few exceptions. (12 C.F.R. § 1026.36.)
TILA requires that a mortgage lender or servicer send ''an accurate payoff balance within a reasonable time, but in no case more than seven business days'' after receiving the borrower's request.
First, you'll need to contact your lender and let them know you want the information. Depending on your lender, you may have to sign in to an online account, call a helpline, or send a formal letter to start the request process.
The number you see on your mortgage statement is the principal balance, not the payoff amount. The payoff amount showing on the settlement statement takes into account the principal balance plus interest accrued for the number of days between the statement and a few days after the closing.
