The landscape of multifamily finance is shifting. To help you read the new map, NAHB Multifamily invites you to listen in as our panel of experts provide an in-depth overview of both the FHA Section 221 (d)(4) program and the Section 223(f) programs. This will help you decide if FHA financing is for you.
For the first time in several years, large numbers of multifamily developers are turning to HUD’s Federal Housing Administration (FHA) for financing options. Our experts will provide an in-depth overview of both the FHA Section 221 (d)(4) program for new construction/substantial rehabilitation and Section 223(f), which is used for acquisition and refinancing. Multifamily developers and owners will come away with a better understanding of how the programs work, how to apply and key issues to consider when looking at FHA.
