The packager may not charge fees or accept compensation or gratuities directly or indirectly from the very low- and low-income families being assisted under this program. The packager may not represent or be associated with anyone else, other than the applicant, who may benefit in any way in the proposed transaction. If the packager is compensated for this service from other sources, then the packager is not eligible for compensation from this source except as permitted by Agency. Grantees who are funded to do Self-Help Housing, may not be reimbursed for packaging applications for participation in the Self-Help Housing effort.
