On November 29, 2007, the Clay County SHIP Program made a loan to Iva Elaine Randolph in the amount of $17,500.00 funded through the First Time Homebuyer Down Payment Assistance Program.  On April 12, 2016, Ms. Randolph requested the Board of County Commissioners grant her permission to sell her home as a "short sale" because her employer had transferred her to south Florida.  Because of her move, she has been unable to maintain the mortgage on her property.  At its April 12, 2016 meeting, the Board of County Commissioners granted her permission to sell her house as a "short sale" and waived the deficiency with regard to her mortgage.  The sale on her home has taken place and the agreed upon amount of $1,500.00 has been received as complete payment for the SHIP mortgage.
