USES AND USE RESTRICTIONS |
HUD insures lenders against loss on mortgage loans. These insured loans may be used to assist individuals or families in acquiring corporate certificates and occupancy certificates in a cooperative housing project that is covered by a blanket mortgage insured under the National Housing Act. The maximum insurable mortgage loan is limited to the maximum limit under Section 203(b) minus the portion of the unpaid balance of the project mortgage attributable to the dwelling unit. |

Formula and Matching Requirements |
For most families, the maximum amount of the loan is the same as under 203(b) - program 14.117. The unit's share of the project mortgage is deducted from the maximum potential amount to determine the maximum Section 203(n) loan. As of July 1, 1991, risk-based mortgage insurance premiums will be collected including: 1) an up-front premium which may be financed and 2) a periodic premium which is paid monthly. The origination charge by the mortgagee varies, but may not exceed one percent of the total mortgage amount. |
Length and Time Phasing of Assistance |
The maximum mortgage term is 30 years or the remaining term of the blanket mortgage covering the cooperative development, whichever is less. |
Reports |
Defaults in meeting the mortgage terms must be reported. Any approved mortgagee, at any time upon request by HUD, must furnish a copy of its latest financial statement. |
Audits |
The Department of Housing and Urban Development reserves the right to audit the account of the mortgagee to determine its compliance and conformance with HUD regulations and standards. |
