What is a three-day right to cancel?
On primary refinance transactions, Federal law mandates that you have three business days, after signing your loan documents, in which to cancel your loan. This three-day period includes Saturdays, but excludes Sundays and holidays. Your loan will not be funded until this period has expired.
