loans. A listing of the Mortgage Loans is included in the BIP. The
Mortgage Loans will be sold without FHA insurance and with servicing
released. HUD will offer qualified bidders an opportunity to bid
competitively on the Mortgage Loans.
Qualified bidders may submit bids on the Mortgage Loans. A
mortgagor who is a qualified bidder may submit an individual bid on its
own Mortgage Loan. Interested Mortgagors should review the
Qualification Statement to determine whether they may also be eligible
to qualify to submit a bid.
The Bidding Process
The BIP describes in detail the procedure for bidding in MHLS 2014-
2. The BIP also includes a standardized non-negotiable loan sale
agreement (Loan Sale Agreement).
As part of its bid, each bidder must submit a minimum deposit of an
amount equal to the greater of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000)
or ten percent (10%) of the Aggregate Bid Prices for all of such
Bidder's Bids. HUD will evaluate the bids submitted and determine the
successful bids in its sole and absolute discretion. If a bidder is
successful, the bidder's deposit will be non-refundable and will be
applied toward the purchase price. Deposits will be returned to
unsuccessful bidders. Closings are expected to take place between
September 23 and 25, 2014.
These are the essential terms of sale. The BIP and the Loan Sale
Agreement, which will be included in the BIP, contains additional terms
and details. To ensure a competitive bidding process, the terms of the
bidding process and the Loan Sale Agreement are not subject to
negotiation.
Due Diligence Review
The BIP describes the due diligence process for reviewing the loan
file in MHLS 2014-2. Qualified bidders will be able to access loan
information remotely via a high-speed Internet connection. Further
information on performing due diligence review of any Mortgage Loan is
provided in the BIP.
Mortgage Loan Sale Policy
HUD reserves the right to add Mortgage Loans to or delete Mortgage
Loans from MHLS 2014-2 at any time prior to the award date. HUD also
reserves the right to reject any and all bids, in whole or in part,
without prejudice to HUD's right to include the Mortgage Loans in a
later sale. The Mortgage Loans will not be withdrawn after the award
date except as is specifically provided in the Loan Sale Agreement.
This is a sale of unsubsidized mortgage loans, pursuant to Section
204(a) of the Departments of Veterans Affairs and Housing and Urban
Development, and Independent Agencies Appropriations Act of 1997, (12
U.S.C. 1715z-11a(a)).
Mortgage Loan Sale Procedure
HUD selected a competitive sale as the method to sell the Mortgage
Loan. This method of sale optimizes HUD's return on the sale of the
Mortgage Loan, affords the greatest opportunity for all qualified
bidders to bid on the Mortgage Loan, and provides the quickest and most
efficient vehicle for HUD to dispose of the Mortgage Loan.
