SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice informs the public that HUD is
seeking approval from OMB for the information collection described in
Section A.
A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection: 2024 Rental Housing Finance
Survey.
OMB Approval Number: 2528-0276.
Type of Request: Revision of a currently approved collection.
Form Number: N/A.
Description of the need for the information and proposed use: The
Rental Housing Finance Survey (RHFS) provides a measure of financial,
mortgage, and property characteristics of rental housing properties in
the United States. RHFS focuses on mortgage financing of rental housing
properties, with emphasis on new originations for purchase-money
mortgages and refinancing, and the characteristics of these new
originations.
The RHFS will collect data on property values of residential
structures, characteristics of residential structures, rental status
and rental value of units within the residential structures, commercial
use of space within residential structures, property management status,
ownership status, a detailed assessment of mortgage financing, and
benefits received from Federal, state, local, and non-governmental
programs.
Many of the questions are the same or similar to those found on the
1995 Property Owners and Managers Survey, the rental housing portion of
the 2001 Residential Finance Survey, and previous collections of the
Rental Housing Finance Survey. This survey does not duplicate work done
in other existent HUD surveys or studies that deal with rental units
financing.
Policy analysts, program managers, budget analysts, and
Congressional staff can use the survey's results to advise executive
and legislative branches about the mortgage finance characteristics of
the rental housing stock in the United States and the suitability of
public policy initiatives. Academic researchers and private
organizations will also utilize the data to facilitate their research
and projects.
The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) needs the
RHFS data for the following two reasons:
1. This is the only source of information on the rental housing
finance characteristics of rental properties.
2. HUD needs this information to gain a better understanding of the
mortgage finance characteristics of the rental housing stock in the
United States to evaluate, monitor, and design HUD programs.
Members of affected public: Owners and managers of rental
properties.
Estimated number of respondents: 10,000.
Estimated time per response: 60 minutes.
Frequency of response: One time every three years
Estimated total annual burden hours: 10,000.
Estimated total annual cost: The only cost to respondents is that
of their time.
Respondent's obligation: Voluntary.
Legal authority: This survey is conducted under Title 13, U.S.C.,
Section 8b and Title 12, U.S.C., Section 1701z-1 et seq.
