R.C.S.A. § 8-248E-3a
Distribution of mortgage money (Repealed)
Cite as Conn. Agencies Regs. § 8-248E-3a
(a) CHFA may elect to make mortgage money available through participating lenders in the
state. CHFA will not issue separate allocations to any particular participating lenders.
CHFA shall notify all participating lenders by mail when mortgage money is available.
(b) Prior to an allocation of funds, CHFA will establish a date after which loan reservation
requests may be accepted. Participating lenders shall not establish interview lists
for loan applications and shall not accept applications for funds prior to the date
set by CHFA. CHFA will not accept reservations for funds prior to such date.
(c) Mortgage money may be reserved by a participating lender for a prospective borrower
only after the prospective borrower has entered into a written sales agreement covering
the property to be financed, a copy of which agreement shall be supplied to the participating
lender, and has shown evidence of income by supplying a copy of the federal income
tax return most recently filed by the prospective borrower, unless he has not been
required to file such return. Such reservation of funds not committed within four
(4) months of the date of reservation shall be cancelled and of no further effect
unless extended by CHFA.
(d) Participating lenders shall take and process applications from prospective borrowers
on a "first-come, first-served" basis, unless otherwise directed by CHFA. No preference
may be shown an applicant, at any stage of the process, on account of the latter's
relationship with particular brokers or developers, his membership in certain groups
or organizations, or his status as a depositor, customer or employee of the participating
lender.
(e) Prior to each allocation of funds, CHFA shall notify the participating lenders of
the procedures to be followed in reserving funds for prospective borrowers. CHFA will
accept only those reservations made in accordance with announced procedures.
(f) Notwithstanding any of the above provisions, CHFA reserves the right to use lotteries
or similar devices in the allocation or reservation of funds whenever, in its sole
discretion, it determines that such a step is necessary for an equitable distribution
of funds. CHFA further reserves the right to accept funds reservations directly from
prospective borrowers.
(g) CHFA reserves the right to hold back a portion of any bond issue for use in special
programs, in furtherance of its goals in providing financing for owner-occupied one-
to four-family housing. CHFA may limit participation in such special programs to certain
designated lenders or may itself administer loans made thereunder.
