Which of the following is NOT considered a prohibited act under RI HLPA?

Offering low-interest loans is not considered a prohibited act under the Rhode Island Home Loan Protection Act (HLPA). The HLPA aims to protect consumers by regulating specific predatory lending practices and ensuring that borrowers are treated fairly. Low-interest loans, when offered transparently and according to legal standards, can be beneficial to borrowers as they can reduce the overall cost of borrowing.

In contrast, the other options reflect actions that are typically seen as predatory or harmful to consumers. Financing certain premiums can lead to inflated loan costs, while encouraging borrowers to default can create undue financial stress and trap them in a cycle of debt. Acceleration clauses often allow lenders to call the entire loan balance due upon a default event, which can be particularly harmful to borrowers if misused. Therefore, while low-interest rates are generally seen as a positive for consumers, the other actions violate the consumer protections intended by the HLPA.
