DISCLAIMER
I am a signatory to a voluntary affirmative marketing agreement between HUD and the local board named:
For this reason, I am exempt from signing the non-discrimination portion of this certification.
Broker's Name (Please print or type) Telephone Number (include area code)
Broker's License Number TIN/SSN
Company's Name & Mailing Address (include City, State, and Zip Code)
Public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 12 minutes per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching
existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. . This agency may not collect
this information, and you are not required to complete this form, unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.
This information enables HUD to record and process financial transactions in its automated Single Family Acquired Asset Management System (SAMS) to
dispose of acquired single-family properties. HUD reimburses M & M Contractors for their services in maintaining, marketing, and selling HUD homes, and
HUD collects funds associated with the sales of these properties. The information enables HUD to create and maintain sound financial management practices
and effective internal controls over the property disposition program. A response is required to obtain or maintain a benefit.
Privacy Act Statement. The Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD) is authorized to collect the information on this form by the U.S. Housing
Act of 1937, as amended. The Housing & Community Development Act of 1987, 42 U.S.C. 3543 authorizes HUD to collect Social Security Numbers (SSN).
The information is being used as vendor reference information, minority data collection, payment/remittance instructions and proof of business viability. The
SSN is used as a unique identifier. HUD may disclose this information to Federal, State and local agencies when relevant to civil, criminal, or regulatory
investigations and prosecutions. It will not be otherwise disclosed or released outside of HUD, except as required and permitted by law. Providing the SSN
is mandatory. Failure to provide the information could result in a delay or rejection of your eligibility approval.
Earnest Money Deposit
As a condition to participate in HUD's single family REO sales
program, I agree to abide by the Department's earnest money
policy.
Should HUD instruct me to collect earnest money deposits
from prospective buyers, I agree to do so at the time the contract
is written and, according to HUD's instructions, deposit such
funds either in my escrow account (or client's trust account) or
in such other manner as HUD may direct no later than the close
of the next banking day; or forward such deposits to HUD with
the contract.
I understand that I am fully responsible for any deposit
accepted and placed in my escrow account (or client's trust
account). I also understand that any deposit accepted and forwarded
to HUD with a contract will only be in the form of a
cashier's check, certified check, or money order with no termination
date or cancellation provision.
Earnest money deposits being held in my escrow account (or
client's trust account) shall be accounted for at the sales closing,
unless the contract is terminated. I agree to immediately comply
with HUD's instructions for the ultimate disposition of each
earnest money deposit.
I agree to fully explain to each purchaser, prior to a contract
being written, HUD's earnest money forfeiture policy.
