D.C. 04 FILE: 8-190979 DATE: July 7, 1978 MATTER OF: Burrel M. Baxter - Reimbursement for Real Estate Commissions DIGEST: Claim for reimbursement of real estate commis- sionsincurred incident to the sale otamobile home has not been adequately documented and may re' be certified for payment. Claimant has not subfitted a copy of the sales agree- ment, and has not established that he had title to the home at the time of the trans- action 'hich gave rise to this claim. Ad. ditiunally, the documents which were submitted contain conflicting statem'nts. This is in response to a request for an advance decision regarding the claim of Mr. Burrel M.

The mobite home was sold and Mr. Baxter submitted a claim for reimbursement of $907.37 in real estate commissions.
