Farewell Alex Rodriguez! You deserve the Hall!
It appears there will be no A-Rod baseball comeback in 2017.
Former Yankee Alex Rodriguez, who was unconditionally released by the Bombers last August, is not going to try to play for another club this year, and will instead fulfill his commitment as a "special advisor" to Yankee owner Hal Steinbrenner, according to Rodriguez's spokesman.
"Alex is enjoying his time off and looking forward to heading to spring training to work with the young guys as he has said all along," Ron Berkowitz, A-Rod's spokesman, told the Daily News Wednesday.
Yankees general manager Brian Cashman also told The News that he had heard "nothing new" on Rodriguez and any baseball playing desires in 2017.
"He's certainly invited to participate in spring training," said Cashman. "But Alex is also free to do as he pleases, if he wants to try and keep playing. We welcome the opportunity for him to impact our young players at spring training. Alex would work directly for Hal (Steinbrenner). All the parameters have been vocalized and they remain the same from last year. He's got a life to live too, and I'm sure he's going to have a lot of opportunities in broadcasting, in business. People will be tugging him in a lot of different directions."
A-Rod was a Fox Sports analyst during the 2015 and 2016 postseasons.

New FHA Condo Rules Expand Access to Reverse Mortgages Michael Wagner Executive | Chief Marketing Officer | Expert Brand Builder | Global Business Driver | 12,000 + Connections
New FHA Condo Rules Expand Access to Reverse Mortgages
In response to changing conditions in the condominium market, the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) today proposed new rules that would allow individual condo units to become eligible for FHA financing, including Home Equity Conversion Mortgages (HECMs), an agency spokesman confirmed to RMD.
FHA is currently seeking public comments on the 43-page proposed rule that seeks to reinstate a process similar to “spot approvals” in unapproved condo developments, as well as create a range of thresholds required for FHA approval, including the minimum owner-occupants in approved condo projects and limits on commercial/non-residential space, the agency stated in a release.
The proposal, which “certainly includes HECMs,” according to the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) spokesman, will differ from the agency’s former “spot approvals” process, though no further details were able to be provided.
Ultimately, FHA will have the ability to specify new owner occupancy, commercial/non-residential, and single-unit thresholds within the proposed ranges through a notice, handbook or mortgagee letter.
“FHA’s intent is to modify its condominium rules to ensure financial soundness and project viability, but in a manner that is more flexible where possible and responsive to the market,” the agency stated in a press release issued Tuesday.
FHA currently requires that approved condos have a minimum of 50% of the units occupied by owners. Through this proposed rule, FHA is specifically inviting comments on this issue and is proposing to establish an allowable range between 25-75%.
“While having too few owner-occupants can detract from the viability of a project, requiring too many can harm its marketability,” FHA stated in the release. “The range allows FHA to choose a specific percentage that is responsive to future market changes.”
The Housing Opportunity through Modernization Act of 2016 (HOTMA) directed HUD, within 90 days of enactment, to issue guidance regarding the percentage of units within an approved condo development that must be owner occupied.
To satisfy the law’s requirement, FHA said it will publish a mortgagee letter in the coming days establishing a new owner-occupancy requirement.
As for single-unit approvals, under certain circumstances, FHA is proposing to insure mortgages for selected condo units in developments that are not currently FHA-approved.
An individual unit may be eligible for single-unit approval if it meets a variety of criteria, including that the condo is not a manufactured home and is located within a project that has at least five dwelling units.
Additionally, a single-unit may be eligible for FHA spot approval if the condominium development is not on the list of FHA-Approved condo projects, or the unit is not in a project that has been subject to “adverse determination for significant issues that affect the viability of the project.”
Under this proposed rule, FHA and participating lenders will not approve projects that are proposed or under construction; however, condo projects may be approved in legal phases or upon completion.
Projects approved under this rule would be those where the work on the project or legal phase, including buildings and infrastructure of the project or legal phase, is fully complete.
The proposal is the latest move by FHA regarding its condo financing policies.
Last fall, the agency published new guidelines intended to increase the number of condo projects that are eligible for FHA insurance, heeding the calls of lawmakers and mortgage industrygroups who have long pushed for easier condo requirements.
While those guidelines did apply to all Title II programs, including Home Equity Conversion Mortgages, they did not include single-unit approvals.
