Office of the Assistant

Commissioner, HUD.
ACTION: Proposed rule.
AGENCY:
FHA insures mortgage loans

under the National Housing Act, and
nursing homes, intermediate care
facilities, board and care homes, and

(the Section 232 program). Through this
rule, HUD proposes to update HUD fees

healthcare facilities and to update and
streamline the Section 232 program

the purchase and installation of fire
safety equipment in the insured
healthcare facilities, which have not
been substantially updated in over 20

years. The proposed changes would give
HUD flexibility in raising or lowering
fees, and for residential healthcare
facilities, streamline the loan
application process by eliminating
unnecessary requirements, conforming
needed requirements to current industry
practices, and allowing for HUD to
centralize the loan application process.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
HUD Fees
Section 207(d) of the National
Housing Act (12 U.S.C. 1713) authorizes
the Secretary, as he determines
necessary, to charge and collect fees for
the appraisal of a property or project
offered for insurance and for the
inspection of such property, as long as
such fees do not exceed one percent of
the amount of the mortgage. Despite the
flexibility to set fees given to the
Secretary in the statute, relevant HUD
fees are currently set by regulation in
parts 200 and 232, which does not allow
HUD the flexibility necessary to adapt to
market changes in a timely manner.
Loans To Finance the Purchase of Fire
Safety Equipment
Under section 232 of the National
Housing Act (12 U.S.C. 1715w), FHA
insures mortgage loans to finance the
development of residential healthcare
facilities. HUD’s regulations for the
Section 232 program are codified in 24
CFR part 232. In addition to insuring
such mortgage loans, FHA insures,
under the Section 232 program, loans to
finance the purchase and installation of
fire safety equipment in insured
healthcare facilities.
The Fire Safety Equipment Loan Act
(Pub. L. 93–204, approved December 28,
1973) amended section 232 of the
National Housing Act to provide that
