Preserving Access to Manufactured Housing Act of 2015

(Sec. 2) Amends the Truth in Lending Act to revise the exclusion from the meaning of "mortgage originator" of any employee of a retailer of manufactured homes who does not for compensation or gain take residential mortgage loan applications, for compensation or gain offer or negotiate terms of a residential mortgage loan, or advise a consumer on loan terms (including rates, fees, and other costs).

(Sec. 3) Revises the definition of "high cost mortgage."
