SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: HUD announces its intention to sell, in MHLS

consisting of six (6) first lien healthcare notes secured by assisted

Illinois, South Carolina, Indiana, and Pennsylvania, one first lien 
multifamily note secured by a multifamily property located in South 
Carolina, one first lien multifamily note secured by a multifamily 
property located in Alaska, and one multifamily first lien note with 
second and third lien Mark-to-Market notes secured by a property 
located in Georgia. The Mortgage Loans are non-performing mortgage 
loans. The listing of the Mortgage Loans is included in the BIP. The 
Mortgage Loans will be sold without FHA insurance and with HUD 
servicing released. HUD will offer qualified bidders an opportunity to 
bid competitively on the Mortgage Loans. Qualified bidders may submit 
bids on one or more of the Mortgage Loans.
    The Mortgage Loans will be stratified for bidding purposes into 
mortgage loan pools as appropriate. Each pool will contain Mortgage 
Loans that generally have similar performance, property type, 
geographic location, lien position and other characteristics. Qualified 
bidders may submit bids on one or more pools of Mortgage Loans or may 
bid on individual loans.
    Bidder eligibility criteria is set forth in the Qualification 
Statement. As detailed in the Qualification Statement, certain 
entities/individuals may be precluded from bidding depending on their 
prior involvement with the loan(s).

The Bidding Process

    The BIP describes in detail the procedure for bidding in MHLS 2022-
1. The BIP also includes a standardized non-negotiable loan sale 
agreement (Loan Sale Agreement).
    As part of its bid, each bidder must submit a minimum deposit of 
the greater of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) or ten percent 
(10%) of the aggregate bid prices for all of such bidder's bids. In the 
event the bidder's aggregate bid is less than One Hundred Thousand 
Dollars ($100,000), the minimum deposit shall be not less than fifty 
percent (50%) of the bidder's aggregate bid. HUD will evaluate the bids 
submitted and determine the successful bid(s) in its sole and absolute 
discretion. If a bidder is successful, the bidder's deposit will be 
non-refundable and will be applied toward the purchase price, with any 
amount beyond the purchase price being returned to the bidder. Deposits 
will be returned to unsuccessful bidders after notification to 
sucessful bidders. Closings are expected to take place on November 3, 
2021.
    The Loan Sale Agreement, which is included in the BIP, contains 
additional terms and details. To ensure a competitive auction, the 
terms of the bidding process and the Loan Sale Agreement are not 
subject to negotiation.

Due Diligence Review

    The BIP describes the due diligence process for reviewing loan 
files in MHLS 2022-1. Qualified bidders will be able to access loan 
information remotely via a high-speed internet connection. Further 
information on performing due diligence review of the Mortgage Loans is 
provided in the BIP.

Mortgage Loan Sale Policy

    HUD reserves the right to add Mortgage Loans to or delete Mortgage 
Loans from MHLS 2022-1 at any time prior to the award date. HUD also 
reserves the right to reject any and all bids, in whole or in part, 
without prejudice to HUD's right to include the Mortgage Loans in a 
later sale. The Mortgage Loans will not be withdrawn after the award 
date except as is specifically provided for in the Loan Sale Agreement.
    This is a sale of unsubsidized mortgage loans, pursuant to Section 
204(a) of the Departments of Veterans Affairs and Housing and Urban 
Development, and Independent Agencies Appropriations Act of 1997 (12 
U.S.C. 1715z-11a(a)).

Mortgage Loan Sale Procedure
