(A)insured under title I or II [ 12 U.S.C. 1702 et seq. or 1707 et seq.] of the National Housing Act, or
(B)insured, guaranteed, or made under chapter 37 of title 38; or any temporary construction loan or other interim financing if at the time such loan is made or financing is arranged, the intention to obtain permanent financing substantially by means of loans or mortgages so insured, guaranteed, or made is declared.
