Not Applicable. Contingent upon complexity of case. Not Applicable. Renewals of the Section 8 are subject to the rules of the particular program. There are no renewals of Up-Front Grants. Not Applicable. This section only applies to multifamily housing projects owned by the Secretary or that are subject to a mortgage held by the Secretary for which a foreclosure sale is to be held. A property can be sold with its current project-based Section 8 contract assigned to the new owner so that contract and its requirements stay in place. A property can be sold with tenant-based Housing Choice Vouchers (14.871) being provided to eligible tenants, which give the tenants the ability to stay on-site in units that meet HUD standards, or move to another location. In both cases, the residents must meet the eligibility requirements of those programs, which are defined elsewhere. A HUD-owned property may be sold with an up-front grant to assist in paying for rehabilitation or rebuilding provided funds have been appropriated by Congress. To be eligible, in addition to the property being HUD-owned, it must have more than 50 percent of the units in the project occupied by very low- income residents at the time a disposition plan is approved by HUD, or HUD must determine it is essential, as affordable housing, to the revitalization of its community; it must be located in a housing market or submarket in which there is not sufficient habitable, affordable, rental housing, as defined in 24 CFR 290.3; it will generate, after rehabilitation or rebuilding, sufficient rental income in a competitive market to cover all operating expenses, meet after sale debt service requirements, fund required reserves and throw off positive cash flow; will provide affordable housing for at least 20 years, after the rehabilitation and/or rebuilding is completed; meets such other requirements, including deed restrictions, loan provisions, and monetary penalties for non-performance, as HUD may determine are appropriate on a case-by-case basis. The maximum that HUD will fund per project in an up-front grant or loan is 50 percent of total development cost (TDC), or $40,000 per affordable, finished unit, whichever amount is less (not to exceed the current number of residential units in the project).
