Legal Question in Administrative Law in Washington
SBA Disaster Relief Loan
We were involved in the December 2007 Flood in Chehalis WA. We own a piece of land and two homes. A standard home and a mobile home. In May 2006 (after the sale of our condo in So. California) we moved mother to the main home and began updating the Mobile home for her. It was and still is our intention to move our family to Washington once the mobile home was complete. The updating of the mobile home was about 98% complete when the flood hit. The mobile home was and is a complete loss. We sustained about $4,000 in damages to the house. We were told that FEMA would not help us as our home was considered a 2nd home and because Mom was not living in the Mobile home at the time she did not loose any personal property they would not assist either. SBA says that they are denying my request for a loan to �rebuild� the mobile home. They stated that because we can not prove that my mother was living there and because we can not prove that we were in the process of moving to Washington that our claim will be denied. Everything is in MY name. They are not accepting that the mobile home was an extended family home. Can we sue to force them to give usa a loan to rebuild?
