Production: For MF FHA-insured lending, in situations where interior access to the subject property is limited, and the asbestos surveys, lead-based paint hazard evaluations, and/or radon testing cannot be completed prior to application submittal, MFH Production will allow lenders to submit applications without these reports. However, MFH Production will require these reports before issuing a Firm Commitment. For new construction and substantial rehabilitation properties where asbestos clearance sampling, lead clearance examinations, or radon testing takes place after construction, all mitigation reports, including follow-up sampling, examinations, or testing, must be submitted to HUD staff at the final completion inspection, before occupancy. Recapitalization: For RAD conversions, MFH Recapitalization (Recap) is developing instructions for the completion of asbestos surveys, lead-based paint surveys, and/or radon testing in situations where COVID-19 considerations impact site visits. Recap is also developing instructions regarding Section 106 consultation in light of the closure of some State Historic Preservation (SHPO) and Tribal Historic Preservation (THPO) offices. However, MFH Recap will require these reports before issuing a RAD Conversion Commitment. These instructions will be available in a future Q&A supplement. (Added on 4/2/20)
