      <title>What does a Crestview Florida VA Compromise Sale Approval Look Like from Bank of America?</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&#160;&lt;img title=&quot;va compromise sales&quot; src=&quot;http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/9/8/8/9/9/ar126775027599889.jpg&quot; height=&quot;267&quot; alt=&quot;bank of America VA Compromise&quot; width=&quot;308&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I just received an approval on a &lt;strong&gt;Crestview Florida short sale&lt;/strong&gt;.&#160; Not just any short sale, but on a &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.shortsales-emeraldcoast.com/Compromise_20_Sales.html&quot; title=&quot;Eglin AFB VA Compromise Sales&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;VA Compromise Sale&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;.&#160; When a U.S. veteran has a VA guaranteed mortgage loan, and sells his home in a hardship situation for less than the mortgage balance,&#160;there will not be enough to&#160;pay back his VA entitlement.&#160; That is called&#160;a VA Compromise Sale or &lt;strong&gt;Offer in Compromise&lt;/strong&gt;.&#160; In that case, when working with &lt;strong&gt;Bank&#160;of America&lt;/strong&gt;, you won't see the dreaded &lt;a href=&quot;http://api.ning.com/files/w9TBY1fuvSIiTUTl41GyeLMKAwYBocEWxsbZh29Ogn6f-DGqwA035WA5oT0M7AP2akWyg7TJJWjl*fLBdC3q-Jb215EDXVv7/BankofAmericaApprovalLetter.pdf&quot; title=&quot;Bank of America short sale approval&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&quot;Deficiency&quot; approval letter&lt;/a&gt;, where they &quot;reserve the right to pursue a deficiency&quot;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&#160;Here is the approval letter for a &lt;strong&gt;Bank of America VA Compromise sale&lt;/strong&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img title=&quot;Crestview VA Compromise&quot; src=&quot;http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/3/8/9/9/2/ar12677486129983.png&quot; height=&quot;232&quot; alt=&quot;bank of America VA Compromise&quot; width=&quot;629&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you need to do a &lt;strong&gt;VA Compromise sale&lt;/strong&gt; or use the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.shortsales-emeraldcoast.com/HAP_3a__20_Military_20_PCS.html&quot; title=&quot;Eglin HAP&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;HAP &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;program in Crestview, Niceville, Destin, Fort Walton Beach or Navarre, Florida, you should contact an &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.rulnickrealty.com/aboutwendy.html&quot; title=&quot;Wendy Rulnick&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;experienced real estate agent&lt;/a&gt;.&#160; In fact, I am thinking of one right now :)&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Destin Short Sale Approved in 60 days?  A Bank of America short sale?  Heck, yes!  </title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What does&amp;nbsp;a Bank of America Equator approval look like?&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp; Here is the happy email I got regarding a Destin short sale on Saturday:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img title=&quot;Bank of America short sales&quot; src=&quot;http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/2/8/4/8/8/ar126809304588482.png&quot; height=&quot;195&quot; alt=&quot;Destin short sales&quot; width=&quot;696&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What was the key to getting this short sale approved?&lt;/strong&gt; Tenacity AND creativity.&amp;nbsp; Bank of America's Equator system rejected this offer of around $165,000 as &quot;insufficent&quot; about five times.&amp;nbsp; It was fair market value.&amp;nbsp; In fact, it was a little over what other units in The Palms condo project&amp;nbsp; in Destin Florida were selling for.&amp;nbsp; &lt;strong&gt;Finally, we gave up and just entered $1,000,000 as the offer price.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Amazingly, Equator let us&amp;nbsp;continue the short sale&amp;nbsp;process without rejecting the offer.&amp;nbsp; (We corrected the price&amp;nbsp;in the next &quot;step&quot;.) Bank of America sent out an appraiser, and voila!&amp;nbsp; It turns out the offer was &quot;fair market&quot; (just like I said).&amp;nbsp; File approved.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It's Wendy!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;Remember, each short sale, whether it is serviced by Bank of America or Wells Fargo or Chase, likely has a different secondary market investor.&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&#160; &lt;/span&gt;The secondary market investor, for example, Merrill Lynch, Bank of New York, etc., for the particular mortgage loan,&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&#160; &lt;/span&gt;will have different criteria for what it desires to agree to a short sale.&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&#160; &lt;/span&gt;There is no &#8220;one size fits all&#8221;.&lt;img title=&quot;Buying short sales&quot; src=&quot;http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/3/6/1/3/3/ar126737715433163.jpg&quot; height=&quot;200&quot; alt=&quot;Destin short sales&quot; width=&quot;216&quot; style=&quot;margin: 8px; float: right;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #800000;&quot;&gt;So if you are going to offer an amount substantially lower than market value for a short sale, be prepared.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #800000;&quot;&gt;&#160;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/span&gt;You&#8217;re either going to end up paying closer to market value or you're not going to get the home.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;To get a direct answer, I called the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.vba.va.gov/ro/south/spete/RLC/index.htm&quot; title=&quot;VA St Petersburg&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Veterans Affairs Regional Office in St. Petersburg&lt;/a&gt; (telephone 1-888-611-5916), which covers the state of Florida.&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;They told me &lt;strong&gt;VA Compromise sale is reflected as &amp;ldquo;settled for less&amp;rdquo; on credit reports&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&amp;ldquo;Settled for less&amp;rdquo; is a common reporting for short sales, as well.&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;The exact number of points that your credit will be affected depends on your &lt;a href=&quot;http://activerain.com/blogsview/1456108/report-short-sales-and-your-credit-score&quot; title=&quot;Credit Score&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;complete credit picture&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Remember, if you missed payments, that will also show up on your credit report. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;2.&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Will I be able to get a VA loan again if I do a Compromise Sale?&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle&quot; style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt 0.5in; LINE-HEIGHT: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoListParagraphCxSpLast&quot; style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Yes, if you pay back the entitlement that was not paid back to the VA&amp;nbsp;at the sale.&lt;/strong&gt; Specifically, the Veterans Administration says: &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; color: #000000; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Should VA agree to pay the difference between the sales proceeds and the total debt to complete the compromise sale process, the portion of the homeowner&amp;rsquo;s entitlement used to guaranty this loan will remain tied up until VA is &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; color: #000000; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;reimbursed in full. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; color: #000000; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;In fact, I am working with a Veteran now who re-paid his entitlement after a compromise sale, in order to get a VA loan again, because the rate and terms were more favorable.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;But remember, there are other types of mortgages that will be available to you, if you are unable to seek another VA loan. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; color: #000000; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;If you are a service member or Veteran near Eglin AFB, Hurlburt Field, Duke Field or Whiting Field, and think you might need to do a VA Compromise Sale&lt;strong&gt;, &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.shortsales-emeraldcoast.com&quot; title=&quot;short sales&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;short sale&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; or use the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.shortsales-emeraldcoast.com/HAP_20_PCS_20_Q_26_A.html&quot; title=&quot;HAP Eglin AFB&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;HAP program&lt;/a&gt;, call me at 850-650-7883.&amp;nbsp; I can help.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>HAP PCS &#8211; Eglin AFB and Hurlburt Field - 6 Things You Need To Know</title>
      <description>&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;img title=&quot;Hurlburt HAP PCS&quot; src=&quot;http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/9/8/4/9/7/ar126687851979489.jpg&quot; height=&quot;400&quot; alt=&quot;Eglin HAP PCS&quot; width=&quot;267&quot; style=&quot;float: left; margin: 8px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;By now most Eglin Air Force Base and Hurlburt Field airmen are aware of the Homeowner Assistance Program (&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://hap.usace.army.mil/&quot; title=&quot;Eglin HAP PCS&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;HAP&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;).&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;HAP has been expanded to help service members pay off much of their mortgage loss when PCSing to a new base and the value of their property has dropped below its mortgage balance.&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;By using HAP the service member may avoid a &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.shortsales-emeraldcoast.com/Benefits_20_of_20_a_20_Short_20_Sale.html&quot; title=&quot;Egling AFB short sales&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;short sale&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;There are many rumors floating around about HAP.&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I had the good fortune of speaking at length to the regional representative who covers the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.sas.usace.army.mil/hapinv/index.html&quot; title=&quot;Eglin HAP PCS&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Savannah District&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Savannah District services the military in the Eastern United States and Europe. Hopefully, the following Q&amp;amp;A I gleaned from our conversation will help you better understand your HAP PCS options:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1. How long will it take to get HAP benefits?&lt;/strong&gt; Four to six months from time of &lt;a href=&quot;http://hap.usace.army.mil/HowToApply.html&quot; title=&quot;How to apply for HAP&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;application&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Why so long?&lt;/strong&gt; HAP is currently understaffed.&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;There are over 4200 applicants in the Savannah District, around 6400 nationally. Savannah District has 55 employees, separated into 5 teams, each lead by a &amp;ldquo;Realty Specialist&amp;rdquo;. They are processing 80-100 applications per person.&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Three to four people are manning the toll-free lines. Most of the applications are missing data, so about 30 reps are assigned to asking applicants to complete all the needed information. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. How can I get the quickest approval from HAP?&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;The Savannah regional representative made it very clear &lt;strong&gt;&amp;ldquo;Do your part--&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;send in as complete a package as possible&amp;rdquo;.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;The Savannah District processes PCS applications in order of completeness! Remember, you don&amp;rsquo;t need your orders to apply. Eligibility for HAP is determined a few weeks after application. (Of course, priorities are always Wounded Warriors, Surviving Spouses)&amp;nbsp; Apply as soon as you know you will be getting orders.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3. Should I be concerned about the minimum marketing time on the HAP website of 120 days?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;If your home sells sooner than 120 days, HAP will still consider the offer if it is close to fair market value.&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;It is important for you to get your real estate agent to do a market analysis supporting the contract price to provide to HAP.&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;HAP wants agent assistance.&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;If not, they use what is called an Automated Valuation Model (AVM) that is provided by a company called Core Logic.&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;These valuations may not be as accurate as what your agent provides, and HAP is aware of that.&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;img title=&quot;Hurlburt HAP PCS&quot; src=&quot;http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/4/5/8/8/4/ar126687898548854.jpg&quot; height=&quot;200&quot; alt=&quot;Eglin HAP PCS&quot; width=&quot;300&quot; style=&quot;float: right; margin: 8px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;4. What else should I know about the calculations to determine my HAP benefit?&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;The HAP website leaves out some very important information about the amount of your benefit.&amp;nbsp; It is&amp;nbsp;based not only your original purchase price, but on capital improvements you have done with receipts to show proof.&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;For example, if you put on a new roof, installed a water heater, built a retaining wall, etc, those are considered &amp;ldquo;capital improvements&amp;rdquo;.&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;What is not a capital improvement would be fixing a broken air conditioner, etc.&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Reference the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p523.pdf&quot; title=&quot;IRS Capital Improvements&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;IRS &quot;Selling Your Home&quot; &amp;nbsp;publication&lt;/a&gt; for a guide on what a valid improvement is, HAP uses the same.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;5.&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Will HAP pay more than the 90% reimbursement stated on their website?&lt;/strong&gt; In reality, HAP will consider reimbursing up to 95%, per the regional rep I spoke with.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;6.&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;img title=&quot;Hurlburt HAP PCS&quot; src=&quot;http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/6/7/7/7/0/ar12668790207776.jpg&quot; height=&quot;164&quot; alt=&quot;Eglin HAP PCS&quot; width=&quot;266&quot; style=&quot;float: left; margin: 8px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Will HAP pay more than&amp;nbsp;7% of the contract price&amp;nbsp;towards closing costs,&amp;nbsp;including your real estate agent commission?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/span&gt;In reality, HAP will reimburse 10% towards closing costs.&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;As the HAP regional rep stated, they want service members to be competitive in the market place, so if it helps to pay a bit toward buyer&amp;rsquo;s costs, they will do so.&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Currently under review is a national policy on exactly what costs HAP will cover.&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;For example, they will not pay a buyer&amp;rsquo;s homeowner insurance, but might consider paying points.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This is a recap of just part of my discussion with the HAP regional rep.&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp; If you are&amp;nbsp;a service member at &lt;strong&gt;Eglin AFB, Hurlburt Field, Whiting Field or Duke Field&lt;/strong&gt;, and are considering HAP or a &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.shortsales-emeraldcoast.com&quot; title=&quot;Eglin short sales&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;short sale&lt;/a&gt; for your next PCS move,&amp;nbsp;give me a call&amp;nbsp;or email me at &lt;a href=&quot;mailto:itswendy@rulnickrealty.com&quot;&gt;itswendy@rulnickrealty.com&lt;/a&gt;. &amp;nbsp; I will be happy to fill you&amp;nbsp;in on the rest of the scoop.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Calibri;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
