Revised HUD Procedures for Requesting REAC inspections |
|
HUD issued Notice H 2010-17, "Revised Procedures for Requesting Inspections from the Real Estate Assessment Center," on August 23, 2010.

HUD Final Rule: Prohibition of the Escrowing of Tax Credit Equity |
|
HUD's Final Rule, "Prohibition of the Escrowing of Tax Credit Equity," conforms FHA's multifamily mortgage insurance regulations (24 CFR 200.54) to section 2834(c) of the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 (12 U.S.C. 1715s).
HERA changes HUD's practice of requiring a substantial portion of the low-income housing tax credit (LIHTC) equity to be placed in escrow for potential future use over the life of the project at the time of initial endorsement. This requirement has had an inhibiting effect on the building of new LIHTC projects, and often required the use of bridge loans until the escrowed
proceeds were released.
