Notice for Requests for Proposals for
Guaranteed Loans under the Section
538; Guaranteed Rural Rental Housing
Program (GRRHP) for Fiscal Year 2007
Rural Housing Service, USDA.
Notice.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
SUMMARY: This is a request for proposals
for guaranteed loans under the section
538 Guaranteed Rural Rental Housing
Program (GRRHP) pursuant to 7 CFR
3565.4 for Fiscal Year (FY) 2007 subject
to the availability of funding. FY 2006
funding for the section 538 was $99
million. This Notice is being issued
prior to passage of a final appropriations
bill to allow applicants sufficient time
to leverage financing and submit
proposals in the form of ‘‘RESPONSES’’,
and give the Agency maximum time to
process applications within the current
fiscal year. A Notice of Funding
Availability will be published
announcing the funding level for
GRRHP for FY 2007 once an
appropriations act has been enacted.
The commitment of program dollars
will be made to applicants of selected
responses that have fulfilled the
necessary requirements for obligation, to
the extent an appropriation act provides
funding for GRRHP for FY 2007.
Expenses incurred in developing
applications will be at the applicant’s
risk. The following paragraphs outline
the timeframes, eligibility requirements,
lender responsibilities, and the overall
response and application processes.
The GRRHP operates under 7 CFR
part 3565. The GRRHP Origination and
Servicing Handbook (HB–1–3565) is
available to provide lenders and the
general public with guidance on
program administration. HB–1–3565,
which contains a copy of 7 CFR part
3565 in Appendix 1, can be found at the

hblist.html#hbw6.
Eligible lenders are invited to submit
responses for the development of
affordable rural rental housing, the
acquisition with rehabilitation of
affordable rural rental housing, and the
revitalization, repair, and transfer (as
stipulated in 7 CFR 3560.406) of
existing direct section 515 housing
(transfer costs are subject to Agency
approval and must be an eligible use of
loan proceeds as listed in 7 CFR
3565.205). Equity payment, as
stipulated 7 CFR 3560.406, in the
transfer of existing direct section 515
housing, is an eligible use of loan
proceeds. In order to be considered,
direct section 515 housing projects must
need repairs and/or undergo
revitalization of a minimum of $6,500
per unit.
The Rural Housing Service (RHS) will
review responses submitted by eligible
lenders, on the lender’s letterhead, and
signed by both the prospective borrower
and lender. Although a complete
application is not required in response
to this Notice of requests for proposals,
eligible lenders may submit a complete
application concurrently with the
response. However, submitting a
complete application will not have an
effect on the respondent’s score.
DATES: The RHS will review and score
all responses received through April 27,
2007. Those responses that are selected
that subsequently submit complete
applications and meet all Federal
environmental requirements will
receive commitments to the extent an
appropriation act provides funding for
GRRHP for FY 2007 until all funds are
expended. Responses received prior to
April 27, 2007, that meet program
criteria, but score less than 25 points or
score 25 points or more but have a
development cost ratio of equal to or
more than 70 percent may be selected
for obligation after April 27, 2007, with
the highest scoring responses receiving
priority as long as funds remain
available. The Agency will continue to
select the highest scoring Notice
responses received after April 27, 2007,
notwithstanding the score, as long as the
response meets program criteria and
funds remain available using the
procedure outlined in the next
paragraph.
Once a complete application is
received and approved by the State
Office, an obligation request (request)
for 2007 funds will be submitted [via
fax] by the State Office to the National
Office. Requests submitted to the
National Office will be accumulated, but
