Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 107 / Monday, June 5, 2006 / Notices
performance of FHA-insured mortgage
loans originated by the mortgagee. The
termination of a mortgagee’s Agreement
is separate and apart from any action
taken by HUD’s Mortgagee Review
Board under HUD’s regulations at 24
CFR part 25.
Cause: HUD’s regulations permit HUD
to terminate the Agreement with any
mortgagee having a default and claim
rate for loans endorsed within the
preceding 24 months that exceeds 200
percent of the default and claim rate
within the geographic area served by a
HUD field office, and also exceeds the
national default and claim rate. For the
26th review period, HUD is terminating
the Agreement of mortgagees whose
default and claim rate exceeds both the
national rate and 200 percent of the
field office rate.
Effect: Termination of the Agreement
precludes that branch(s) of the
mortgagee from originating FHA-insured
single family mortgages within the area
of the HUD field office(s) listed in this
notice. Mortgagees authorized to
purchase, hold, or service FHA insured
mortgages may continue to do so.
Loans that closed or were approved
before the termination became effective
may be submitted for insurance
endorsement. Approved loans are (1)
those already underwritten and
approved by a Direct Endorsement (DE)
underwriter employed by an
unconditionally approved DE lender
and (2) cases covered by a firm
commitment issued by HUD. Cases at
earlier stages of processing cannot be
submitted for insurance by the
terminated branch; however, they may
be transferred for completion of
processing and underwriting to another
mortgagee or branch authorized to
originate FHA insured mortgages in that
area. Mortgagees are obligated to
continue to pay existing insurance
premiums and meet all other obligations
associated with insured mortgages.
A terminated mortgagee may apply for
a new Origination Approval Agreement
if the mortgagee continues to be an
approved mortgagee meeting the
requirements of 24 CFR 202.5, 202.6,
202.7, 202.8 or 202.10 and 202.12, if
there has been no Origination Approval
Agreement for at least six months, and
if the Secretary determines that the
underlying causes for termination have
been remedied. To enable the Secretary
to ascertain whether the underlying
causes for termination have been
remedied, a mortgagee applying for a
new Origination Approval Agreement
must obtain an independent review of
the terminated office’s operations as
well as its mortgage production,
specifically including the FHA-insured
mortgages cited in its termination
notice. This independent analysis shall
identify the underlying cause for the
mortgagee’s high default and claim rate.
The review must be conducted and
issued by an independent Certified
Public Accountant (CPA) qualified to
perform audits under Government
Auditing Standards as provided by the
General Accounting Office. The
mortgagee must also submit a written
corrective action plan to address each of
the issues identified in the CPA’s report,
along with evidence that the plan has
been implemented. The application for
a new Agreement should be in the form
of a letter, accompanied by the CPA’s
report and corrective action plan. The
request should be sent to the Director,
Office of Lender Activities and Program
Compliance, 451 Seventh Street, SW.,

multifamily and healthcare properties
located throughout the United States.
The Mortgage Loans are comprised
primarily of non-performing mortgage
loans. A final listing of the Mortgage
Loans will be included in the BIP. The
Mortgage Loans will be sold without
FHA insurance and with servicing
released. HUD will offer qualified
bidders an opportunity to bid
competitively on the Mortgage Loans.
The Mortgage Loans will be stratified
for bidding purposes into several
mortgage loan pools. Each pool will
contain Mortgage Loans that generally
have similar performance, property
type, geographic location, lien position
and other characteristics. Qualified
bidders may submit bids on one or more
pools of Mortgage Loans or may bid on
individual loans. A mortgagor who is a
qualified bidder may submit an
individual bid on its own Mortgage
Loan. Interested Mortgagors should
review the Qualification Statement to
determine whether they may also be
eligible to qualify to submit bids on one
or more pools of Mortgage Loans or on
individual loans in MHLS 2006–1.
The Bidding Process
The BIP will describe in detail the
procedure for bidding in MHLS 2006–1.
The BIP will also include a standardized
nonnegotiable loan sale agreement
(Loan Sale Agreement).
As part of its bid, each bidder must
submit a deposit equal to the greater of
$100,000 or 10% of the bid price. HUD
will evaluate the bids submitted and
determine the successful bids in its sole
and absolute discretion. If a bidder is
successful, the bidder’s deposit will be
non-refundable and will be applied
toward the purchase price. Deposits will
be returned to unsuccessful bidders.
Closings are scheduled to occur on June
28, 2006.
These are the essential terms of sale.
The Loan Sale Agreement, which will
be included in the BIP, will contain
additional terms and details. To ensure
a competitive bidding process, the terms
of the bidding process and the Loan Sale
Agreement are not subject to
negotiation.

Mortgage Loan Sale Policy
HUD reserves the right to add
Mortgage Loans to or delete Mortgage
Loans from MHLS 2006–1 at any time
prior to the Award Date. HUD also
reserves the right to reject any and all
bids, in whole or in part, without
prejudice to HUD’s right to include any
Mortgage Loans in a later sale. Mortgage
Loans will not be withdrawn after the
Award Date except as is specifically
provided in the Loan Sale Agreement.
This is a sale of unsubsidized
mortgage loans. Pursuant to the
Multifamily Mortgage Sale Regulations,
24 CFR 290.30 et seq., the Mortgage
Loans will be sold without FHA
insurance. Consistent with HUD’s
policy as set forth in 24 CFR 290.35,
HUD is unaware of any Mortgage Loan
that is delinquent and secures a project
(1) for which foreclosure appears
unavoidable, and (2) in which very-low
income tenants reside who are not
receiving housing assistance and who
would be likely to pay rent in excess of
30 percent of their adjusted monthly
income if HUD sold the Mortgage Loan.
If HUD determines that any Mortgage
Loans meet these criteria, they will be
removed from the sale.
Mortgage Loan Sale Procedure
HUD selected a competitive sale as
the method to sell the Mortgage Loans
primarily to satisfy the Mortgage Sale
Regulations. This method of sale
optimizes HUD’s return on the sale of
these Mortgage Loans, affords the
greatest opportunity for all qualified
bidders to bid on the Mortgage Loans,
and provides the quickest and most
efficient vehicle for HUD to dispose of
the Mortgage Loans.
Bidder Eligibility
In order to bid in the sale, a
prospective bidder must complete,
execute and submit both a
Confidentiality Agreement and a
Qualification Statement acceptable to
HUD. The following individuals and

(8) Any individual or entity and any
Related Party (as such term is defined in
the Qualification Statement) of such

any regulatory or business agreements
with HUD, unless such default or
violation is cured on or before June 14,
2006.
In addition, any entity or individual
that serviced or held any Mortgage Loan
at any time during the 2-year period
prior to May 31, 2006, is ineligible to
bid on such Mortgage Loan or on the
pool containing such Mortgage Loan,
but may bid on loan pools that do not
contain Mortgage Loans that they have
serviced or held at any time during the
2-year period prior to May 31, 2006.
Also ineligible to bid on any Mortgage
Loan are: (a) Any affiliate or principal
of any entity or individual described in
the preceding sentence; (b) any
employee or subcontractor of such
entity or individual during that 2-year
period; or (c) any entity or individual
that employs or uses the services of any
other entity or individual described in
this paragraph in preparing its bid on
such Mortgage Loan.

review the Qualification Statement to
determine whether they are eligible to

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: HUD announces its intention to sell in MHLS

primarily of non-performing mortgage loans. A final listing of the
Mortgage Loans will be included in the BIP. The Mortgage Loans will be
sold without FHA insurance and with servicing released. HUD will offer
qualified bidders an opportunity to bid competitively on the Mortgage
Loans.
The Mortgage Loans will be stratified for bidding purposes into
several mortgage loan pools. Each pool will contain Mortgage Loans that
generally have similar performance, property type, geographic location,
lien position and other characteristics. Qualified bidders may submit
bids on one or more pools of Mortgage Loans or may bid on individual

bid on its own Mortgage Loan. Interested Mortgagors should review the
Qualification Statement to determine whether they may also be eligible
to qualify to submit bids on one or more pools of Mortgage Loans or on
individual loans in MHLS 2006-1.
The Bidding Process
The BIP will describe in detail the procedure for bidding in MHLS
2006-1. The BIP will also include a standardized nonnegotiable loan
sale agreement (Loan Sale Agreement).
As part of its bid, each bidder must submit a deposit equal to the
greater of $100,000 or 10% of the bid price. HUD will evaluate the bids
submitted and determine the successful bids in its sole and absolute
discretion. If a bidder is successful, the bidder's deposit will be

information on performing due diligence review of the Mortgage Loans
will be provided in the BIP.
Mortgage Loan Sale Policy
HUD reserves the right to add Mortgage Loans to or delete Mortgage
Loans from MHLS 2006-1 at any time prior to the Award Date. HUD also
reserves the right to reject any and all bids, in whole or in part,
without prejudice to HUD's right to include any Mortgage Loans in a
later sale. Mortgage Loans will not be withdrawn after the Award Date
except as is specifically provided in the Loan Sale Agreement.
This is a sale of unsubsidized mortgage loans. Pursuant to the
Multifamily Mortgage Sale Regulations, 24 CFR 290.30 et seq., the
Mortgage Loans will be sold without FHA insurance. Consistent with
HUD's policy as set forth in 24 CFR 290.35, HUD is unaware of any
Mortgage Loan that is delinquent and secures a project (1) for which
foreclosure appears unavoidable, and (2) in which very-low income
tenants reside who are not receiving housing assistance and who would
be likely to pay rent in excess of 30 percent of their adjusted monthly
income if HUD sold the Mortgage Loan. If HUD determines that any
Mortgage Loans meet these criteria, they will be removed from the sale.
Mortgage Loan Sale Procedure
HUD selected a competitive sale as the method to sell the Mortgage
Loans primarily to satisfy the Mortgage Sale Regulations. This method
of sale optimizes HUD's return on the sale of these Mortgage Loans,
affords the greatest opportunity for all qualified bidders to bid on
the Mortgage Loans, and provides the quickest and most efficient
vehicle for HUD to dispose of the Mortgage Loans.
Bidder Eligibility
