Title of Proposal: 2011 Rental
Housing Finance Survey.
OMB Control Number: 0000–0000.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: The
Rental Housing Finance Survey (RHFS)
provides a measure of financial,
mortgage, and property characteristics
of multifamily rental housing properties
in the United States. The RHFS focuses
on mortgage financing of multifamily
rental housing properties, with
emphasis on new originations for
purchase, capital improvement,
refinancing, and the loan terms and
property characteristics associated with
these originations.
The RHFS will collect data on
property values of residential structures,
characteristics of residential structures,
rental status and rental value of units
within the residential structures,
commercial use of space within
residential structures, property
management status, ownership status, a
detailed assessment of mortgage
financing, and benefits received from
federal, state, local, and nongovernmental programs. Many of the
questions are the same or similar to
those found on the 1995 Property
Owners and Managers Survey and the
rental housing portion of the 2001
Residential Finance Survey. This survey
does not duplicate work done in other
existing HUD surveys or studies that are
pertinent to mortgage finance of
multifamily rental properties.
Policy analysts, program managers,
budget analysts, and Congressional staff
can use the survey’s results to advise
executive and legislative branches about
the mortgage finance characteristics of
the multifamily rental housing stock in
the United States and the suitability of
public policy initiatives. Academic
researchers and private organizations
will also be able to utilize the data to
facilitate their research and projects.
The Department of Housing and
Urban Development (HUD) needs the
RHFS data for the following two
reasons:
1. This is the only data source that
provides a comprehensive picture of
mortgage financing of the multifamily
rental properties with two or more
units.
2. With the data, HUD can gain a
better understanding of mortgage

origination volumes, loan and property
characteristics associated with these
originations, and operating cost and
revenue characteristics for the
multifamily rental housing stock in the
United States. This information will
help HUD to evaluate, monitor, and
design national housing policies,
priorities, and programs affecting the
entire spectrum of the multifamily
rental stock.
Agency Form Numbers:

Members of affected public: Owners
and managers of rental properties.
Estimation of the total number of
hours needed to prepare the information
collection including number of
respondents, frequency of response, and
hours of response:
Number of Respondents: 3,600.
Estimate of Responses per
Respondent: 1 every 2 years.
Time (minutes) per respondent: 30.
Total hours to respond: 1800.

This
Notice informs the public that the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD) has submitted to
OMB, for emergency processing, an
information collection package with
respect to implementing an FHA Energy
Efficient Mortgage Innovation pilot
program targeted to the single family
housing market. The Consolidated
Appropriations Act, 2010 (Pub. L. 111–
117, approved December 16, 2009, 123
Stat. 3034) (2010 Appropriations Act),
which appropriated fiscal year 2010
funds for HUD, among other agencies,
appropriated $50 million for an Energy
Innovation Fund to enable HUD to
catalyze innovations in the residential
energy efficiency sector that have the
promise of replicability and help create
a standardized home energy efficient
retrofit market. Of the $50 million
appropriated for the Energy Innovation
Fund, the 2010 Appropriations Act
stated that ‘‘$25,000,000 shall be for the
Energy Efficient Mortgage Innovation
pilot program directed at the single
family housing market.’’ (See Pub. L.
111–117, at 123 Stat. 3089). The FHA
Home Energy Retrofit Loan Pilot
Program (Retrofit Pilot Program) is
designed by HUD to meet this statutory
directive and provides funding to
support that effort. Under the Retrofit
Pilot Program, HUD, through FHAapproved lenders, will insure loans for
homeowners who are seeking to make
energy improvements to their homes.
Lender participation in the Retrofit
Pilot Program is voluntary. To facilitate
HUD’s evaluation of lender performance
and assessment of the success and
replicability of the pilot program, HUD
will select lenders to participate in the
program. To be eligible for participation,
lenders must submit an Expression of
Interest that demonstrates the eligibility
