    C) the borrower must be given an estimate of the settlement costs within three business days of loan application.

    Explanation:

    The Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA passed in 1974 but effective since June 20, 1975. It applies to the majority of purchase loans, where a lender finances the purchase of a residence (home).
