30-Day Notification Requirement Prior to Termination of Lease for Nonpayment of Rent Proposed Rule Publishes

Dear Multifamily Owners and Operators,

On December 1, HUD published a 30-Day Notification Requirement Prior to Termination of Lease for Nonpayment of Rent Notice of Proposed Rulemaking in the Federal Register for public comment. Under this proposed rule, when tenants who reside in public housing or in properties receiving project-based rental assistance (PBRA) face eviction for nonpayment of rent, public housing agencies (PHAs) and owners would need to provide those tenants with written notification at least 30 days prior to the commencement of a formal judicial eviction procedure for lease termination.

Multifamily encourages stakeholders to respond to the questions that will help guide our work on this topic moving forward. Please submit comments as instructed in the notice.

Comment Due Date: January 30, 2024.
