Abstract: Section 501 of Title V of the
Housing Act of 1949, as amended,
authorizes the Secretary of Agriculture
to extend financial assistance to
construct, improve, alter, repair,
replace, or rehabilitate dwellings, farm
buildings, and/or related facilities to
provide decent, safe, and sanitary living
conditions and adequate farm buildings
and other structures in rural areas.
Sections 302, 311, and 321 of the
Consolidated Farm and Rural
Development Act, as amended,
authorize the Secretary to extend
agricultural credit to farmers and
ranchers. Title clearance is required to
assure the Agency(s) that the loan is
legally secured and has the required lien
priority.
The Agencies will be collecting
information to assure that those
participating in this program remain
eligible to proceed with loan closing
and to ensure that loans made with
Federal funds are legally secured. The
respondents are individuals or
households, farms, businesses, and
nonprofit institutions. The information
required is used by USDA personnel to
verify that the required lien position has
been obtained. The information is
collected at the field office responsible
for processing a loan application
through loan closing. The information is
also used to ensure the program is
administered in a manner consistent
with legislative and administrative
requirements. If not collected, the
Agency would be unable to determine if
the loan is adequately and legally
secured.
