The CFPB has provided an explainer for the CD.

The "explainer" is completely interactive and goes through each page of the CD and asks a series of questions. It also gives basic definitions of key terms used in the Closing Disclosure.

Please follow the link to the CFPB's Closing Disclosure Explainer:
