handle is hein.gao/gaobadmxc0001 and id is 1 raw text is: The Comptro~er General of the United States Wahington, D.C. 20548 Decision Ray F. Hunt - Real Estate Expense Materof: Reimbursement - Residence Construction File: B-226271 Date: November 5, 1987 DIGEST 1. A transferred employee constructed a residence at his new permanent station rather than purchase an existing residence. The expenses authorized by paragraph 2-6.2d of the Federal Travel Regulations to be reimbursed are those which are comparable to expenses incurred in connection with the purchase of an existing residence. Since the expenses incurred as a result of permanent financing of the residence are most representative of the expenses incurred to purchase an existing residence, the employee's entitlement should be primarily based on the expenses attendant to that settlement. 2. A transferred employee constructed a residence at his new permanent station. Although the expenses authorized by paragraph 2-6.2d of the Federal Travel Regulations (FTR) to be reimbursed are those usually incurred incident to the securing of permanent financing upon completion of the residence, other expenses incurred prior to permanent financing also may be reimbursed so long as they are not a duplication of an expense item already allowed incident to that permanent financing, an expense uniquely applicable to the construction process, or a nonreimbursable item listed under FTR para. 2-6.2d(2). DECISION This decision is in response to a request from the Corps of Engineers, Los Angeles District, Department of the Army. It concerns the entitlement of Mr. Ray F. Hunt to be reimbursed certain real estate expenses incident to a permanent change of station transfer in December 1985. We conclude that only some of the items claimed may be allowed. Q4-AAoaE)
