I just found additional info – The 90 day Title Seasoning Waiver for REOs was extended last month:
“This revised notice on the FHA property flipping waiver extension corrects the date in the last line of the notice that was published on 5/15/09:
“Federal Housing Commissioner Brian D. Montgomery has extended the temporary property flipping waiver to May 10, 2010. Under the waiver, homes that were foreclosed on and are being sold by the mortgagee or on its behalf may be purchased by FHA borrowers without regard to the 90-day seasoning period. The waiver does not apply to entities that purchase foreclosures either singly or in bulk for resale. Subsequent sales of such properties will continue to be subject to the standard regulatory requirements.
The waiver expires for all loans for which the sales agreements were signed by the seller and buyer on or before May 10, 2010.”
