Converting From A WA MBPA License To WA CLA License
Beginning January 1, 2010, non-delegated correspondent lenders licensed under the Mortgage Broker Practices Act (MBPA) must hold a Consumer Loan Act (CLA) license in order to make residential mortgage loans. To avoid potential business interruption and ensure timely licensure, DFI recommends that all MBPA licensees wishing to make residential mortgage loans apply for a CLA license no later than October 31, 2009.
