Pre-Recorded HOTMA Webinar: Overview of Anticipated Changes

Event Description

The Housing Opportunity Through Modernization Act (HOTMA) was signed into law on July 29, 2016, amending many aspects of Multifamily Housing programs (as well as programs administered through the Offices of Public and Indian Housing and Community Planning and Development). HOTMA was intended to streamline processes and reduce burdens on housing providers. The final rule was published on January 9, 2023 with all provisions for Multifamily Housing programs slated to become effective on January 1, 2024.
