Rescission of a Loan
Rescission of a loan means canceling the loan. There is a concept under TILA of retroactively canceling or rescinding a loan. The technical term for this is extended rescission. A lender has to give you three days notice under certain circumstances to rescind or cancel a loan. However, your right to rescind or cancel the loan can be extended up to three years if you can show the lender violated portions of TILA. The three year period can be extended even in the event a foreclosure lawsuit has been initiated. This means in a foreclosure lawsuit if you can show a material violation of either TILA or HOEPA you can cancel the loan and by taking this action you can be successful in defending the foreclosure lawsuit. It should be noted the most common types of loans covered by either TILA or HOEPA are refinanced loans and HELOCs.
