total monthly mortgage payments; check disbursements; a statement indicating receipt of funds; applicable special stipulations between buyer and seller; and the date funds are transferred. The reverse side of the form may be used instead of an additional sheet.

Where charges are paid outside of the settlement (normally by separate check), but are included in the requirements of § 3500.E(b), they shall be stated with the notation "P.O.C." (Paid outside closing) and shall not be included in computing totals. In accordance with § 3500.8(b), charges not imposed upon the borrower or seller by the Lender and which borrower or seller contract to pay for separately outside of the settlement, need not be entered on HUD-1.

LINE ITEM INSTRUCTIONS

Instructions for completing the individual items on the form follow. Where no instructions are given, the item is thought to be self-explanatory.

Section A. The Lender, title company, other firm, or other person conducting settlement and preparing the form may insert its name and/or logotype in Section A.

Section B. Check appropriate loan type and complete the remaining items as applicable.

Sections D and E. Fill in the names and current mailing addresses and zip codes of the borrower and the seller. Where there is more than one buyer or seller, the name and address of one is sufficient.

Section G. The street address of the secured property, should be given. If there is not street address, a brief legal description or other location of the property should be inserted. In all cases give the zip code of the property.

Section H. Fill in name, address, and zip code of settlement agent; address and zip code of "place of settlement."

Section J. Summary of Borrower's Transaction. The borrower may be given a copy of the form which does not contain the information filled in under "Summary of Seller's Transaction" (Section K, Series 400, 500, and 600 items).

Lines 104 and 105 are for additional amounts owed by the buyer. For example, the balance in the seller's reserve account held by the Lender, if assigned to the buyer in a loan assumption case, will be entered here. These lines will also be used when a tenant in the property being sold has not yet paid his rent, which the buyer will collect, for a period of time prior to the settlement. The seller will be credited on lines 404-405.

Lines 106 through 112 are for items which the seller had paid in advance, and for which the buyer must therefore reimburse

the seller. Examples of items for which adjustments will be made may include taxes and assessments paid in advance for an entire year or other period, when settlement occurs prior to the expiration of the year or other period for which they were paid. Additional examples include flood and hazard insurance premiums, if the buyer is being substituted as an insured under the same policy; mortgage insurance in loan assumption cases; planned unit development or condominium association assessments paid in advance; fuel or other supplies on hand, purchased by the seller, which the buyer will use when buyer takes possession of the property; and ground rent paid in advance.

Line 203 is used for cases in which the buyer is assuming or taking title subject to an existing loan or lien on the property.

Lines 204-209 may be used in cases in which the seller has taken a trade-in or other property from the buyer in part payment for the property being sold. They may also be used in cases in which a seller (typically a builder) is making an "allowance" to the buyer for carpets or drapes which the buyer is to purchase on his own. Such an allowance should also be entered on lines 506 to 509.

Lines 210 through 219 are for items which have not yet been paid, and which the buyer is expected to pay, but which are attributable in part to a period of time prior to the settlement. In jurisdictions in which taxes are paid late in the tax year, most cases will show the proration of taxes in these lines. Other examples include utilities used but not paid for by the seller, rent collected in advance by the seller from a tenant for a period extending beyond the settlement date, and interest on loan assumptions.

Line 303 may indicate either the cash required from the borrower at settlement (the usual case in a purchase transaction) or cash payable to the borrower at settlement (if, for example, the buyer's earnest money deposit exceeded his cash obligations in the transaction). The appropriate box should be checked.

Section K. Summary of Seller's Transaction. The seller may be given a copy of the form which does not contain the information filled in under "Summary of Borrower's Transaction" (Section J, Series 100, 200, and 300 items).

Instructions for the use of lines 106-112, above, apply also to lines 406 to 412.

Line 501. If the seller's real estate broker has received and holds an earnest money deposit which exceeds the commission owed to him, and if he will tender the excess deposit directly to the seller, rather than through the settlement agent, the amount of excess deposit should be entered on line 501.

Line 503 is used if the purchaser is assuming or taking title subject to existing liens which are to be deducted from sales price.

Line 506 through 509 may be used to list additional liens which must be paid off through the settlement to clear title to the property. They may also be used to indicate funds to be held by the settlement agent for the payment of water, fuel, or other utility bills which cannot be prorated between the parties at settlement because the amounts used by the seller prior to settlement are not yet known.

Instructions for the use of lines 510 through 519 are the same as those for lines 210 to 219 above.

Section L. Settlement Charges. For all items except those paid to and retained by the Lender, the name of the person or firm receiving the payment should be shown. The column which relates to the borrower's transaction may be deleted from the copy of the form which will be furnished to the seller and the column which relates to the seller's transaction may be deleted from the copy of the form which will be furnished to the borrower.

Line 700. If the sales commission paid by the seller is based on a percentage of the purchase price, enter the purchase price, the percentage, and the dollar amount of the total commission paid by the seller.

Lines 701-702 are to be used to state the split of the commission where the person conducting the settlement disburses portions of the commission to two or more agents.

Line 703. If the broker is retaining a part of the earnest money deposit to apply towards his commission, include in lines 703 only that part of the commission being disbursed at settlement.

Line 704 may be used for additional charges made by the sales agent, or for a sales commission charged to the buyer, which will be disbursed by the settlement agent.

Line 801. Enter the fee charged by the Lender for processing or originating the loan. If this fee is computed as a percentage of the loan amount, enter the percentage in the blank indicated.

Line 802. Enter the loan discount charged by the lender, and, if it is computed as a percentage of the loan amount, enter the percentage in the blank indicated.

Line 803. Enter appraisal fees, if there is a charge separate from the origination fee. The VA or FHA appraisal fee is included on line 806.

Line 805 is used only for inspections by the lender or his personnel. Charges for other pest or structural inspections, required by Regulation X to be stated, should be entered in lines 1301-1305.

Line 806 should be used for a VA appraisal fee, FHA application fee (which covers the cost of appraisal for the agency as well), or a fee required by a private mortgage insurance company.

Line 807 is provided for convenience in using the form for loan assumption transactions.

Line 901. If interest is collected at settlement for a part of a month or other period between settlement and the date from which interest will be collected with the first regular monthly payment, enter that amount here. If such interest is not collected until the first regular monthly payment, no entry should be made on line 901.

Lines 1000-1008. This series is used for amounts collected by the Lender from the borrower and held in an account for the future payment of the obligations listed as they fall due. In many jurisdictions this is referred to as an "escrow," "impound," or "trust" account. In addition to the items listed, some Lenders may require reserves for flood insurance, condominium owners association assessments, etc.

Lines 1100-1113. In many jurisdictions the same person (for example, an attorney or a title insurance company) performs several of the services listed in this series and makes a single undifferentiated charge for such services. In such cases, enter the overall fee on line 1107 (for attorneys), or line 1108 (for title companies), and enter on that line the item numbers of the services listed which are covered in the overall fee. If this is done, no amounts should be entered for the individual items which are covered by the overall fee.

Line 1101. Enter here the fee of the person or firm conducting the settlement. In some jurisdictions this is termed a closing or escrow fee. If two or more persons or firms make charges in connection with the same transaction, enter total charges in the appropriate columns, and indicate the breakdown of charges on the line after the word "to."

Lines 1102 and 1103. In some jurisdictions the same person (for example, an attorney) both searches the title (that is, performs the necessary research in the records) and examines title (that is, makes a determination as to what matters affect title, and provides a title report or opinion). If such a person charges only one fee for both services, it should be entered on line 1103. If separate persons perform these tasks, or if separate charges are made for searching and examination, they should be listed separately.

Line 1105. Enter charges for preparation of deeds, mortgages, notes, etc. If more than one person receives a fee for such work in the same transaction, show the total paid in

the appropriate column and the individual charges on the line following the word "to." Lines 1108-1110. Enter the total charge for title insurance (except for the cost of the title binder) on line 1108. Enter on lines 1109 and 1110 the individual charges for the Lender's and owner's policies. Note that these charges are not carried over into the borrower's and seller's columns, since to do so would result in a duplication of the amount in line 1108. If a combination Lender's/owner's policy is available show this amount as an additional entry on line 1109 and 1110.

Lines 1111-1113. These lines are for the entry of other title charges not already itemized. Examples in some jurisdictions would include a fee to a private tax service, a fee to a county tax collector for a tax cer

tificate, and a fee to a public title registrar for a certificate of title under a Torrens Act. Show the attorney's fees for legal representation on lines 1111-1113.

Lines 1303-1305. Enter on these lines any other settlement charges not referrable to the categories listed above on the form, which are required to be stated by Regulation X. Examples may include structural inspections or pre-sale inspection of heating, plumbing, or electrical equipment. These inspection charges may include a fee for insurance or warranty coverage.

Line 1400. Enter the total settlement charges paid from borrower's funds and seller's funds. These totals are also entered on lines 103 and 502, respectively, in sections J and K.
