Porter Examiner Marcia J. Miller Complaint Specialist Mark W. Weigold Licensing Supervisor Amy L. LeVasseur Student Assistant Sarah A. Ramroth Student Assistant The Licensing and Enforcement Division is responsible for issuing and amending licenses granting authority to conduct business under the following acts: Consumer Financial Services Act; Credit Card Act; Mortgage Brokers, Lenders, and Servicers Licensing Act; Motor Vehicle Sales Finance Act; Regulatory Loan Act; Sale of Checks Act; and Sec- ondary Mortgage Loan Act. For an explanation of these acts, please see the narrative of the Office of Regulation. The division is also responsible for initiating enforcement actions against licensees in accordance with the statutes noted above and the Michigan Administrative Procedures Act. In addition, the division is responsible for handling complaints filed by consumers against licensees and registrants. Trend The division has seen an approximate 25 per cent increase in the total number of licensees and registrants under the Mortgage Brokers, Lenders, and Servicers Licensing Act and the Secondary Mortgage Loan Act over the past year. Some of this increased activity can be attributed to the current refinance boom, caused in large part by low mortgage interest rates. The strong Michigan economy in general may have also contrib- uted to the increase, as well as the fact that Michigan has a high rate of home ownership, which translates into a ready market for refinancing. In addition, the increased activity is attributable, in part, to amendments to the Secondary Mortgage Loan Act during 1997, which makes secondary mortgage licensing more attractive for companies seeking business oppor- tunities in this area. Availability of Information The division has made information regarding the licensing process more accessible. Applications for licensure under the Mortgage Brokers, Lenders, and Servicers Licensing Act and the Secondary Mortgage Loan Act are available on the Bureaus web site. (Home page address is on Table of Contents page.) Applications for licensure under the Motor Vehicle Sales Finance Act and Regulatory Loan Act are also available on the site.
