Partial Settlement, Form HUD 2747, Mortgagee's Application
for Insurance Benefits, and the Form HUD 1044-D, Payment
Information Form and a copy of the Debenture Lock
Agreement, if any.
The following claims will be paid in cash unless the mortgagee
presents a written request for debentures: Sections 220, 221 and
233 endorsed on or after July 7, 1961; 235(j)(1) Section 241
loans made in connection with any of the foregoing and endorsed
on or after July 15, 1978; 236 and all other multifamily mortgages
endorsed under another section of Titles II or XI pursuant to
Section 223(e). All other multifamily claims are settled by
issuance of debentures.
For multifamily mortgage assignments which are to be settled by
issuance of debentures, all escrow deposits, reserves for
replacement funds, undisbursed mortgage proceeds, any
undisbursed balance under a letter of credit, and other monies
held by the mortgagee for the account of the mortgagor must be
remitted to HUD on the date the assignment is filed for record.
The mortgagee will retain net income from operation of the
project and receipts from any source after the date of default
irrespective of whether the claim is settled in debentures or cash.
For multifamily property conveyances, and for all cash
settlements, all funds are to be retained by the mortgagee, and
the amount thereof will be deducted from the settlement.
If the mortgage has been finally endorsed for insurance, partial
settlement of approximately 90% of the unpaid principal balance
will be made on cash settlements upon receipt of the above
telefax. If the project is not completed, the amount of the partial
settlement will depend upon the extent of completion. The final
settlement will be made after receipt of the fiscal data and the title
requirements, which are to be submitted within 45 days after the
assignment of the mortgage, or deed, was filed for record, or
such further time as may be granted in writing.
