                     notice that solicited public comment on the information collection for a period of 60 days was published on July 14, 2023 at 88 FR 45233. A. Overview of Information Collection *Title of Information Collection:*
                     2024 Rental Housing Finance Survey. *OMB Approval Number:*
                     2528-0276. *Type of Request:*
                     Revision of a currently approved collection. *Form Number:*
                     N/A. *Description of the need for the information and proposed use:*
                     The Rental Housing Finance Survey (RHFS) provides a measure of financial, mortgage, and property characteristics of rental housing properties in the United States. RHFS focuses on mortgage financing of rental housing properties, with emphasis on new originations for purchase-money mortgages and refinancing, and the characteristics of these new originations. The RHFS will collect data on property values of residential structures, characteristics of residential structures, rental status and rental value of units within the residential structures, commercial use of space within residential structures, property management status, ownership status, a detailed assessment of mortgage financing, and benefits received from Federal, state, local, and non-governmental programs. Many of the questions are the same or similar to those found on the 1995 Property Owners and Managers Survey, the rental housing portion of the 2001 Residential Finance Survey, and previous collections of the Rental Housing Finance Survey. This survey does not duplicate work done in other existent HUD surveys or studies that deal with rental units' financing. Policy analysts, program managers, budget analysts, and Congressional staff can use the survey's results to advise executive and legislative branches about the mortgage finance characteristics of the rental housing stock in the United States and the suitability of public 
                    ( print page 74504)
                    policy initiatives. Academic researchers and private organizations also will utilize the data to facilitate their research and projects. The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) needs the RHFS data for the following two reasons: 1. This is the only source of information on the rental housing finance characteristics of rental properties. 2. HUD needs this information to gain a better understanding of the mortgage finance characteristics of the rental housing stock in the United States to evaluate, monitor, and design HUD programs. *Respondents:*
