FHA (Federal Housing Authority) and HUD (Housing and Urban Development) refer to government loan programs that provide insurance for multifamily mortgages. FHA / HUD loan programs can be used for existing properties, new construction, or rehabilitation. HUD approved lenders can offer long term loans (up to 35 years) with the best rates in the market because the lenders are insured by the FHA against loss on mortgage defaults.

FHA / HUD loans are the often the best mortgage option for multifamily housing because it is a long term permanent debt option, but can be readily paid off at any time with a simple tax deductible prepayment penalty or fully assumed by a new property owner after a simple 0.05% one-time fee. These features can lead to a premium price in the event of a sale because the buyer has the option to either pay off the loan or assume the existing debt with a below market interest rate.

The HUD lending program applicable for more than just Section 8 and affordable housing. Class A, market-rate multifamily properties across the country can qualify for a FHA loan. HUD non-recourse loans can also be combined with local tax credits or municipal grants to create a compelling investment scenario.
