6. Specificity of disclosure. A creditor need not separately disclose multiple security interests that it e collateral. The creditor need only disclose that the transaction is secured by the collateral, even when security interests from prior transactions remain of record and a new security interest is taken in connection with the transaction. In disclosing the fact that the transaction is secured by the collateral, the creditor also need not disclose how the security interest arose. For example, in a closed-end credit transaction, a rescission notice need not specifically state that a new security interest is “acquired” or an existing security interest is “retained” in the transaction. The acquisition or retention of a security interest in the consumer’s principal dwelling instead may be disclosed in a rescission notice with a general statement such as the following: “Your home is the security for the new transaction.”

3. Section (a)(1)(iii) permits the imposition of a fee to obtain the consumer’s credit history prior to the delivery of the disclosures required under § (a)(1)(i). Section (e)(2)(i)(B) permits the imposition of a fee to obtain the consumer’s credit report prior to the delivery of the disclosures required under § (e)(1)(i).
