                 Sale of Mobile Home


        A transferred employee sold a mobile
        home which he had been using as a resi-    -
        dence at his old permanent station and
        seeks reimbursement for advertising and
        legal expenses incurred incident to the
        sale. Under FTR, para. 2-6.2b and 2-6.2c,
        reimbursement of these expenses are
        authorized. Subject to recomputation,
        the employee's advertising expenses are
        allowed. However, not all the legal and
        related expenses charged employee may be
        allowed, since some were incurred after
        the date of closing for the sale. In
        absence of a showing that the additional
        legal expenses incurred after that date
        necessarily related to the sale,, only
        those expenses which were incurred by the
        employee through the designated date of
        the closing may be allowed.

     This decision is in response to a request from the
Finance Officer, National Park Service, Southeast Regional
Office, concerning the entitlement of its employee,
Mr. David J. Price, to be reimbursed for expenses resulting
from the sale of his mobile home incident to a permanent
change-of-station transfer in February 1982. Subject to
limitations as to the amount, the employee may be reim-
bursed.-

     Mr. David J. Price, an employee of the National Park
Service, accepted a permanent change-of-station transfer
which required him to move from Gunnison, Colorado, to the
Everglades National Park, Homestead, Florida, in February
1982. It appears that in May 1980, well before the trans-
fer, he purchased a mobile home in Gunnison and used it as
his residence. Upon receiving notice of his transfer, he
began advertising the mobile home for sale and finally
succeeded in selling it in June 1983. He has presented a
claim in the amount of $511.35, representing his advertising
costs of $140.80, and legal and related costs of $370.55.
