PRRAC response to Federal Housing Finance Agency request for input on tenant protections in GSE backed multifamily properties (7/31/21)

July 31, 2023 by

July 31, 2023

The Honorable Sandra Thompson
Federal Housing Finance Agency
Washington, D.C. Via FHFA.gov
RE: Response to FHFA’s Request For Input on Tenant Protections in Enterprise-Backed Multifamily Properties

Dear Director Thompson,

We are writing to express our recommendations for tenant protections in Enterprise-backed multifamily properties. PRRAC is an organization committed to fostering fair and accessible housing within the U.S., especially for vulnerable communities. As we will discuss below, in order to fulfill its obligation to affirmatively further fair housing (AFFH), it is critical that the FHFA establish a minimum floor of tenant protections. The FHFA cannot rely on the states alone to safeguard the rights of tenants and protect against discriminatory practices.
