SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the Federal Register of August 16, 2023 
(88 FR 55601), the Agency published a proposed rule entitled, 
``Updating Manufactured Housing Provisions.'' The intent of the 
proposed rule is to suggest Agency changes to the current regulations 
for the Single-Family Housing (SFH) Section 502 Direct and the SFH 
Guaranteed Loan Program to allow the Agency to give borrowers increased 
purchase options within a competitive market and increase adequate 
housing along with an enhanced customer experience with the SFH 
programs. The proposed rule initially provided a 60-day period for 
submission of public comments on or before October 16, 2023. The Agency 
is extending the comment period for public comments to October 31, 
2023, to allow for additional review and submission time.
