Partial Claim Questions

So I've had to do a loan modification in the first year of my FHA loan as the company handling my loan has denied my application for a deferral of some payments I missed due to a death in the family. I have been given a partial claim that includes my missed payments. As much as I hate it, it's unavoidable at this point.

I understand the part where I have to pay the partial claim when I sell my home, refinance, or if I finish my mortgage payments on the 40 year term.

My question is, can I use equity to pay it off if I sell or refinance?

Ex I have 40k in equity on a 225k loan and the partial claim is 25k, I want to refinance, would i be able to refinance the original loan amount of 225k or would I only be able to refinance the remaining 185k? Could I add the partial claim to the amount I want to refinance(210k)? Or would the 25k partial claim be due before the refinancing can occur?

Another question I have is concerns selling the home. Would the the partial claim have to be settled prior to the sell of the home or after?

Ex. 40k in equity on a 225k loan and the partial claim is 25k. Would i have to pay the 25k prior to selling the home, or would I be able to sell the home, settle the initial loan, then use the remaining balance of equity to pay the partial claim.

Thank you for any and all help.

Aren't comps/CMAs useless with buyer credits at close happening now?

I'm looking into buying a new construction townhouse in my HCOL US city. I'm seeing builders offering interest rate buydowns worth $20k-$60k on $800k homes (rather than just lowering prices) in order to keep their comps high for their other units, now that buyer demand has been declining. I asked my agent about these, and he said these buydowns aren't even the full story: buyers can write all kinds of other credits into an offer, like their closing costs, prepaid sewer fees, etc. Apparently cash buyers can just write in a "buyer credit at close" for any amount in their offer. So a new townhouse that appeared to sell for $800k in the MLS might have actually been a cash offer with a $100k+ buyer credit at close, meaning the buyer only spent $700k or less in total, but to the rest of the world they can only see the $800k! So that made me realize I can't trust comps/CMAs for other new construction townhouses. The sales prices could be way lower than they appear...
