Mr. XXXX, HUD is NOT accepting the loan without confirming the deposit. XXXX will probably ask us to buy the loan back and we will ask you. Mr. XXXX, I am requesting that you avoid all that unnecessary back and forth and help us clear this and insure the loan with HUD. ( email dated XX/XX/XXXX ) 2. We need HUD to insure your loan ...
