(A)Expend replacement home benefits for improvements to assure the home meets the Commission's decent, safe and sanitary standards, or
(B)Expend replacement home benefits for the acquisition of a replacement dwelling as if the eligible head of household or spouse did not own a home as in paragraph (b)(1) of this section.
(3)If the home is decent, safe and sanitary, and is owned free and clear, no replacement housing benefits will be paid.
(4)The amount of the replacement housing payment shall be calculated in accordance with § 700.183 of these rules except that no compensation will be paid for habitation and improvements.
