The South Carolina Board of Financial Institutions (BFI) is responsible for licensing and regulations for those authorized in South Carolina to work in the mortgage lending industry as mortgage loan originators, mortgage lenders, mortgage bankers, or mortgage servicers.

The South Carolina Department of Consumer Affairs (SCDCA) is the agency responsible for mortgage broker regulations.

These two agencies keep an eye out for unfair lending practices that might harm South Carolina residents while enforcing the state’s mortgage lending regulations. In this module, we will cover the general provisions of the department’s and the board’s structure and supervision.
