Digitizing Our Records

Standard Work:

• Combined effort to update our retention & disposition schedules for the 1st time in 30+ years

• Program Centers & Hubs will organize files based on defined lists and priorities.

Scanning:

• The scanning contractor is wrapping up in Fort Worth. About 45% of the files in Fort Worth/Kansas City have been scanned and we will expand to other locations as quickly as possible.

• The timing is not directly linked to Transformation Waves We are sliding into home on this initiative!

Impact:

• This effort will ease the transition of project information from one location to another.

Lender Quality and Monitoring Division (LQMD):– LQMD was officially brought over to the Office of Asset

Management in January. – Weekly LQMD staff meetings are held with a Manager

participating.– LQMD is an active participant in the Multifamily and Health

Care Credit Risk Committee Meeting.• Activities:

Rookies

RookiesCivil Money Penalties (CMP) Pilot for Owners/Properties with Failing REAC Scores:

Owners of FHA Multifamily Properties will have CMPs assessed if they are found to provide substandard living conditions to their tenants. This is a joint collaboration between Multifamily Asset Management, DEC, and REAC.

Owners who receive either under 30 REAC physical inspection scores or under 45 REAC physical inspection scores with other problems and are identified by the DEC are eligible candidates (threshold subject to change when Pilot becomes Program).

UmpireChief Underwriter Delegation Approval Pilot:• Multifamily Counterparty Oversight currently

approves all new MAP underwriter requests as well as continuation of underwriter approval in the event an underwriter moves to a new lender.

• The concept is to delegate underwriter approval to chief underwriters that meet certain criteria, holding the lender and chief underwriter accountable and responsible for ensuring their underwriters meet requirements.

• Oversight will be provided through the annual review of the lender, the quality control plan and the certification by the lender and chief underwriter regarding compliance.

UmpireFinancials in the hands of the lenders:

• Post 2011 Regulatory Agreements require owners to provide lenders audited financial statements

• Pre-2011 there is no requirement in the loan documents for owners to provide information

• To date HUD has taken the approach that sharing financial information is subject to privacy rules

• OGC is again reviewing the privacy issue

• On a parallel track, we are asking REAC the feasibility of sharing financial information via HUD systems.

InfieldRating Lenders: Compiled the ratings criteria and methodologies utilized by the three major rating

agencies (Fitch, Moody’s and Standard and Poor’s) for banks and mortgage servicers

Compiled the ratings definitions and elements used by the FDIC for the CAMELS rating

Developing the template for the Lender Review process that will incorporate the following elements:o Organizational assessment

Business model Key management personnel

o Financial condition and performance of the lendero Portfolio performance

Individual asset rating Delinquency and default

o Servicing performance

Infield

Lender to Lender Transfers:• When servicing of a troubled asset is

transferred from one servicer to another, HUD would like the opportunity to consent to these transfers given the troubled nature of the asset.

• This will work concurrently with HUD’s efforts to compare watch lists and troubled assets with servicers and ensure the portfolio is managed to mitigate risk.

Strike ZoneMultifamily Delinquency and Default

Reporting System (MDDR)

• Servicers have had the ability to enter their watchlist loans into MDDR since February 28, 2014.

• So far no issues have been experienced in entering data. In fact few questions have been received on the process.

• Training sessions have been offered, but the system is very intuitive.• Lenders have been concerned about how HUD will use this

information.

Team Work Makes The Dream Work!Liaison Model Overview

Background: • Lengthy processing times, inconsistency, and missing

information are often associated with Multifamily. During this time of change and improvement, it is vital that Multifamily address these concerns, to ensure continued growth.

• Advocacy organizations and owners often reach out to the DAS, Commissioner and Secretary to express their feedback directly regarding what is working/not working for them. With the DAS’/Commissioner's/Secretary’s schedule stretched tight, identifying alternate contacts for key stakeholders will streamline the Department’s ability to respond to concerns and resolve problems as they arise.

14

Proposal: • Shift to a customer based approach for all aspects of

Multifamily business (FHA Insurance, Assisted properties, Policy partners, etc.).

• Stakeholders with liaisons will be as follows:• The top five FHA MF lenders (holding 82 percent of

FHA MF’s Insured UPB). • The top [thirteen] identified stakeholder groups

that will include umbrella organizations, trade associations and advocacy groups.

• The top [three] [owners] in our assisted portfolio, which have the most assisted 202 and 811 properties under their management.

• The program has launched and you may be hearing from your liaison soon.

Liaison Model Overview

Increasing Lender Responsibilities:– Non-Critical Repair Escrows—Mortgagee Letter 2013-13

• Continue to receive applications.– Reserve for Replacement Releases

• Mortgagee Letter and Housing Notice are in draft stages.• Intend to have a similar structure to the Non-Critical Repair Escrows.• OGC gave the green light to allow the lenders to voluntarily assume

responsibility for releases on retroactive and prospective deals.– Considering other possible tasks the lenders might assume voluntarily:

• Partial Releases of Security• Modified TPAs

Three Strikes!

Active Partners Performance System (APPS) OAMPO’s Team:– We are training hard—learning from our competition

(Fannie and Freddie) and studying game tape (existing regulations and the APPS system) to completely revamp the APPS system and the 2530 Regulations.

– We have lofty gold medal goals including:• Revise CFR Part 200 Subpart H to require 2530 to

mirror industry borrower vetting standards (looking at the “decisionmakers” only).

• Revise APPS to mirror the new single family Lender Electronic Assessment Portal (LEAP).

– We need to identify the right teammates and make improvements all around to reach our goals and take home the gold.
