Fiscal Year 2022 Example: An owner owns a property with five dwelling units that qualifies under the statutory definition of a multi-family housing project. The owner of the property has a Mod Rehab HAP contract which covers three of the 5 dwelling units on his property. The project is eligible (if all other requirements are met) for a one-year HAP contract renewal. In this example, the owner is eligible because the owner owns a multi-family housing project (a property consisting of more than 4 dwelling units) and the property is covered in part by a contract for project-based assistance under Section 8 of the USHA of 1937. Example: A property consists of four separate buildings that are all located on the same common site and part of a single apartment complex. There are four units in each building and some or all of the units are covered by an expiring Mod Rehab HAP contract. Any of the sixteen units covered by an expiring Mod Rehab HAP contract are eligible for a one-year Mod Rehab HAP contract renewal (if all other requirements are met). The apartment complex is considered one property and the property consists of more than four units.
