HUD is adding to the collection two 

(2) documents (HUD–5985L and HUD– 

5985B) that will be used to facilitate 

uniform electronic closings of FHAinsured commercial mortgage closings, 

allow for the use of digital signatures 

and digital records where they are 

consistent with program obligations, 

and determine the parties’ compliance 

with applicable legal requirements and 

therefore ensure protection of the FHA 

insurance fund; and one (1) document 

(HUD–5985IRR) that will be used by the 

FHA Lender to certify to HUD certain 

conditions required as part of a request 

to reduce the interest rate of an existing

lower the interest rate and save the 

project money by making this 

reduction). In addition, the name of this

HUD Multifamily Rental Project Closing 

Documents to Electronic Closing and
