Renting out 'HomePath' properties ?
Say I buy a Home Path (or other rental restricted program) property. That is: a property which is intended to be sold for own-occupancy only - at least for some initial period of time. Who is it that monitors that I do not simply rehab and rent out the house? How would anyone official know that I had immediately rented out the house? Or anyone at all except the tenant and me. <g>
And beyond that - suppose it is discovered that I have disobediently rented out the property. Then what? What is the penalty?
