OAR 461-145-0240. Income-Producing Sales Contract

(1) The equity value (see OAR 461-001-0000) of an income-producing sales contract is treated as follows: (a) In the OSIPM and QMB-DW programs: (A) Except for a contract resulting from the sale of a home, that is treated in accordance with paragraph (B) of this subsection, it is a countable (see OAR 461-001-0000) resource valued at the outstanding principal balance of the contract unless the individual provides convincing evidence of a lower cash value or there is a legal bar to the sale of the contract. If there is a legal bar to the sale of the contract, the equity value of the contract is a transfer of assets (OAR 461-140-0210 to 461-140-0300 regulate the effect of a transfer of assets on a client) for less than fair market value (see OAR 461-001-0000). (B) The equity value of a contract resulting from the sale of a home is excluded if the entire principal portion of the payments received from the contract is used to purchase another home within three calendar months of receipt of the payments. Otherwise the equity value is treated in accordance with paragraph (A) of this subsection. (b) Except as provided for in subparagraph (a) of this section, it is excluded. (2) In all programs, income received from a sales contract is treated as provided in OAR 461-145-0460.
