D. Summary of Utilizing Forms HUD– 

92051, Fannie Mae 1004D, or a Letter 

of Attestation. 

Comments and HUD Responses: 

Comment: Mortgage Bankers 

Association (MBA) recommends that 

HUD give lenders the flexibility to 

utilize either Form 92051 or Fannie 

Mae’s Form 1004D, or, in certain 

circumstances a letter of attestation 

when certifying the completion of 

construction in the case of new 

construction properties. 

HUD Response: HUD appreciates this 

feedback. HUD also notes that there are 

multiple options to demonstrate 

compliance with the required 

inspections for new construction 

financing. The form HUD–92051, 

Compliance Inspection Report is only 

applicable when the inspection is 

performed by an ICC certified RCI or CI 

or a third-party, who is a registered 

architect, a structural engineer, or a 

qualified trades person or contractor, 

and appropriate state-sanctioned 

inspection form is an alternative to the 

HUD–92051. 

Comment: MBA recommends that 

HUD allow lenders to also utilize 

attestation letters which would not only 

bring FHA more in line with the 

government-sponsored enterprises but 

would also enhance the experience of 

FHA borrowers. 

HUD Response: HUD appreciates this 

comment and will consider for future 

policy enhancements. 

Comment: MBA recommends that 

HUD discontinue its Mortgagee’s 

Assurance of Completion Form 92300 

due to its redundant nature in certifying 

necessary repairs or alterations for new 

construction properties. 

HUD Response: HUD appreciates this 

comment and will consider for future 

policy enhancements.
