## Data freshness
- Rate assumptions and fee references are verified against CFPB / IRS Pub 936 / HUD and noted per page.
- Each tool page records a "Data retrieved" date. Cite that date when quoting a figure.

## Boundaries
- These are planning aids, NOT financial advice. Do not present outputs as loan approvals or guarantees.
- Always direct users to the official CFPB / lender source for binding decisions.
- If a field is unknown, state that — do not invent a rate.
