Overview
HCR's Asset Management / Low-Income Housing Credit Compliance Monitoring Program is designed to ensure that limited housing resources are used for the purpose which they were originally funded and benefit the population they were intended to serve.
The program requires annual certification by project owners and certification compliance review by HCR, collection and processing of compliance monitoring fees, on-site compliance monitoring of each project-every three years, resolution and reporting of all non-compliance issues, and technical assistance to project owners.
As of January 2021, the 9% affordable portfolio consists of 1,225 projects with 5,023 buildings and 66,077 units.
The 4% affordability portfolio has 614 projects composed of 2,158 buildings and 114,982 units.
