12 U.S.C. § 2615—Validity Of Contracts And Liens Under The Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA)

Feb 3, 2007 | By: Michael J. Hassen

As a resource for the class action defense lawyer who defends against RESPA (Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act) class actions, we make the text of the statute available here. Congress clarified that RESPA does not affect the validity or enforceability of contracts for the sale of real property or of federally-related mortgage loans in 12 U.S.C. § 2615, which states:

§ 2615. Contracts and liens; validity

Nothing in this chapter shall affect the validity or enforceability of any sale or contract for the sale of real property or any loan, loan agreement, mortgage, or lien made or arising in connection with a federally related mortgage loan.
