§ 35-7-17. Acquisition of homes for resale to veterans; refinancing of permanent mortgage loans; limitations as to applications for purchase

Nothing contained in this chapter shall prevent the acquisition for sale to a veteran by the Veterans' Home Purchase Board of the State of Mississippi of a home, the title to which has, prior to the date of such purchase, been vested in such veteran if title thereto is vested in such veteran due to (a) the veteran previously owning the land and the purpose of the application is to finance a home on the land; (b) the veteran having taken title to the land for the purpose of obtaining construction financing or otherwise constructing or making a major renovation of a home on the land; or (c) the veteran having previously taken title to the land and home under a nonpermanent purchase money lien to secure his ability to purchase the property while awaiting processing, approval and closing of his application with the board.
The proceeds of the purchase approved may be applied toward the liquidation of a purchase money lien, contractor's or materialman's lien, or temporary construction loan outstanding against the property if the board should determine that the indebtedness secured by such liens or loan is not adequately financed on a permanent basis.
