Prohibition of Property Flipping in HUD's Single Family Mortgage Insurance Programs; Additional Exceptions to Time Restriction on Sales

Краткое содержание

HUD's regulations addressing the predatory practice of property "flipping" establish certain time restrictions regarding the sale of properties whose purchase is being financed with Federal Housing Administration (FHA) mortgage insurance. The regulations include an exception from the time restrictions for properties acquired and subsequently sold by FHA. This interim rule broadens the exception to include all other federal agencies that acquire properties as a result of a function of their programs and quickly market and sell these acquired properties. The interim rule also clarifies that the time restrictions on sales do not apply to properties that are acquired by inheritance.
