    Housing order directs conditional mortgage-insurance and title-review changes, with a pilot limited to future mortgages

    An October 22 executive order, published October 28, directs a conditional pilot to identify borrowers eligible for mortgage-insurance cancellation. It applies only to mortgages made after the pilot is established. The order also directs conditional expansion of automated title review for eligible refinances, requires resulting savings to reach borrowers, and calls for lower rates on specified federal direct home loans.

    A federal program let state housing agencies insure their own affordable-housing loans, backing 93,670 rental units in a decade. HUD says it has had no claim since 2014, and has never done an on-site review of the agencies, citing resources.

    GAO's report of September 15 describes HUD's multifamily risk-sharing program, in which state and local housing finance agencies underwrite affordable-housing loans that FHA insures, sharing between 10 and 90 percent of any loss. From 2016 through 2025 the agencies wrote more than $12 billion of insured loans, financing 776 projects and about 93,670 rental units, roughly 7 percent of the units across the FHA multifamily programs GAO compared. Three states account for about two-thirds of the lending. HUD officials told GAO there have been no claims on risk-sharing loans since 2014, and that HUD has not conducted on-site reviews of the agencies because of resource constraints, unlike the private lenders in its traditional program, who face a full review every three years. The governing handbook dates from 1995. GAO makes no recommendations, and HUD and Treasury sent no comments.
