The Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, or RESPA, was enacted by Congress to provide homebuyers and sellers with improved disclosures of settlement costs and to eliminate abusive practices in the real estate settlement process. While RESPA does cover the vast majority of residential mortgages, loans that don't involve the federal government in some way aren't necessarily covered by RESPA- for example, seller-financed purchases and reverse mortgages.
