In connection with FHA multifamily and healthcare programs, MBA will advocate for:
- stable and sufficient resources and commitment authority to support both workforce and affordable rental housing;
- reduction of regulatory barriers, including statutory loan limits that are consistent with the current economic environment;
- private flood insurance acceptance rules for FHA borrowers that are in harmony with banking agency rules;
- a simplified and streamlined LIHTC program; continued transformation of HUD operations, with opportunity for ongoing industry input;
- flexibility in HUD underwriting, production, and asset management; improved efficiency, integration, and effectiveness of HUD’s technology infrastructure; and
- the disruptive application of Davis-Bacon prevailing wage rate requirements.
