Two refinements to housing eviction rules announced by Blake S. Haddon expand options for funding a 20 percent down payment and start the three month waiting period from the filing date of the eviction petition. The down payment may include borrowed funds under certain conditions and must keep the 20 percent limit intact with proper security and non circumvention. The waiting period now runs from petition filing rather than certificate issuance.
