Department of Housing and Urban Development October 2, 2007 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

This final rule revises HUD's regulations under the single family mortgage insurance program that govern actions by mortgagees with respect to mortgages in default to implement recent statutory changes. The rule also amends regulations under the program to make them consistent with industry practices.

This final rule follows a proposed rule published on November 10, 2004, and takes into consideration and adopts changes in response to the public comments received.
