Which loan characteristic is necessary for the conclusive presumption of QM compliance to apply?

Conclusive presumption of QM compliance only applies when the loan is considered a prime loan and also meets the general QM standards. If a loan fits that combination, the lender is treated as having complied with the ability-to-repay requirement with a safe harbor. This makes the option describing a prime loan that meets general QM standards the correct one. Why the others don’t fit: a non-prime loan isn’t eligible for this conclusive presumption, so it wouldn’t carry the same safe harbor. simply being adjustable-rate doesn’t by itself guarantee conclusive presumption; the key factors are prime status and meeting the general QM criteria. A loan that doesn’t meet general QM standards cannot qualify for the conclusive presumption, even if it’s adjustable or otherwise.
