dod hap woodbridge: SOLD-Another Successful Woodbridge VA DoD HAP Sale - 05/15/12 09:25 AM
This morning Cindy Jones and CJ Realty Group went to settlement on our waterfront townhouse listing in Powells Landing in Woodbridge VA.  The owners of the home had left the area on PCS orders in 2009 and were eligible for the Department of Defense Homeowners Assistance Program (HAP).

dod hap woodbridge: Will Using Department of Defense HAP Benefits Hurt My Credit Rating? - 02/07/11 01:28 AM
With all the stories with how short sales and foreclosures impact a homeowners credit scores it is a question that makes sense for military families to ask.  Though many think that a Department of Defense HAP sale is "like" a short sale it isn't.  Sure the purchasers needs to wait a bit while the government process the paperwork but unlike a short sale the lender does not have to approve the sale.  Here is the good news:

dod hap woodbridge: Gabby Giffords Supported the Deparment of Defense Homeowners Assistance Program - 01/24/11 02:29 AM
As you know from reading my posts the Department of Defense Homeonwers Assistance Program (DoD HAP) is a hot topic for me.  Trying to sort out rumors from facts means a good deal of research. One of the current hot topics is whether the recently published updates to the Federal Registry includes the official extension of the PCS order date to September 30, 2012.  The current registry is ambiguous leaving it to the discretion of Secretary of Defense based on available funding.  While researching the legislation related to the date change I came across H.R. 6272. The bill was introduced by … (4 comments)

dod hap woodbridge: Department Of Defense HAP Program-What Should A Buyer Expect? - 06/28/10 02:22 AM
 
As far as I know there isn’t a formal buyer’s guide for the Department of Defense HAP program.  Recent conversations with a couple of other agents in the Northern Virginia area revealed that other agents do have a different approach to writing an offer for their buyers on a home being sold with HAP benefits than I do. However that being said here are the basics of what a buyer can expect.  HAP isn’t signing your contract.  The owner of the property will negotiate the terms and conditions that are acceptable to them just as in regular seller would.  They … (10 comments)
