RHIIP Listserv Posting #441: CARES Act Eviction Moratorium Notice Issued

We continue to encourage owners of multifamily properties to provide flexibilities to residents who may be struggling financially as a result of COVID-19. Please see our updated guidance for multifamily property owners on promoting housing stability during the pandemic. POC: Libby Cochran (elizabeth.s.cochran@hud.gov).

Separately, Multifamily Housing published a Housing Notice (2020-7), Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act Eviction Moratorium that extends the moratorium on evictions for all HUD-insured or HUD-held mortgages while under forbearance, and also provides guidance on tenant protections for multifamily properties not subject to forbearance and those with HUD-assisted units. POC: Bob Iber (robert.g.iber@hud.gov).

You can stay up to date with multifamily guidance by checking the MFH home page regularly.
