| ABOUT HOMEOWNER REFUND LISTINGS |
In 1986, the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) was passed. HUD/FHA can now provide lists of all mortgagors who may be entitled to these refunds. HUD attempts to advise mortgagors of their entitlement, but if the refund is not claimed after two years, information is made available and is provided in the form of a Homeowner Refund Listing. Homeowner Refund Listings are available through HUD/FHA and you will need to obtain one for the state you are interested in working in. The procedures for obtaining them will be discussed later in this package. The listings vary in size, with the larger and more populated states having the larger listings. Many states have between 300 and 1,500 cases listed. The amount of each refund varies, with the average being somewhere between $450 and $1,100. The listings are updated monthly by HUD and new cases are continuously being added. They may contain cases for which payments are being processed, or which have been paid since the printing of the list. Below is an example of the information contained on a listing: |
