information:
Title of Proposal: HUD Housing
Counseling Program—Agency
Performance Review.
OMB Control Number, if applicable:
2502–0574.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: The
Single Family Program Support Division
is responsible for administration of the
Department’s Housing Counseling
Program, authorized by Section 106 of
the Housing and Urban Development
Act of 1968 (12 U.S.C. 1701w and
1701x). The Housing Counseling
Program supports the delivery of a wide
variety of housing counseling services to
homebuyers, homeowners, low- to
moderate-income renters, and the
homeless. The primary objectives of the
program are to expand homeownership
opportunities, preserve homeownership,
and improve access to affordable
housing. These services are provided by
non-profit and government
organizations. Their counselors provide
guidance and advice to help families
and individuals improve their housing
conditions and meet the responsibilities
of tenancy and homeownership.
Counselors also help borrowers avoid
predatory lending practices, such as
inflated appraisals, unreasonably high
interest rates, unaffordable repayment
terms, and other conditions that can
result in a loss of equity, increased debt,
default, and foreclosure.

To participate in HUD’s Housing
Counseling program, a housing
counseling agency must be approved by
HUD (2502–0261), designated as a sub
grantee or affiliate of a HUD-approved
intermediary or multi-state organization,
or be a state housing finance agency or
affiliate or sub grantee of a state housing
finance agency. Participation in the
program entails meeting various
requirements relating to experience and
capacity, including nonprofit status, a
minimum of one year of housing
counseling experience in the target
community, and sufficient resources to
implement a housing counseling plan.
In order to maintain approval to
participate, housing counseling agencies
must remain in compliance with
program policies and regulations.
Participating organizations are required
to submit to HUD Quarterly 9902
progress reports (2502–0261) to report
on the demographics, education, and
outcomes of clients served.
HUD periodically conducts
performance reviews of participating
agencies to ensure that agencies are in
compliance with the program policy
and regulations governing the program.
Housing Counseling Program
requirements are set forth in 24 CFR
214, Housing Counseling Program,
Revision-5 of Housing Counseling
Program Handbook 7610.1, mortgagee
letters, and grant agreements (if
applicable). Findings from performance
reviews are used to renew or disapprove
the status of housing counseling
agencies to participate in the program.
The information is also used to assist
HUD in evaluating the managerial and
financial capacity of organizations to
sustain operations sufficient to
implement HUD approved housing
counseling programs. The collection of
information assists HUD to reduce its
own risk from fraudulent activities or
supporting inefficient or ineffective
housing counseling programs. Since
HUD publishes a web list of HUD
approved Housing Counseling Agencies
and maintains a toll free housing
counseling hotline, performance
reviews help HUD ensure that
individuals seeking assistance from
these participating agencies can have
confidence in the quality of services that
they will receive. Additionally,
performance review findings are used as
past performance indicators in the grant
application review scoring process.
Performance reviews also give HUD the
opportunity to provide technical
assistance to participating housing
counseling agencies.
