The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) has received more than 400 comments so far in response to its Request for Input (RFI) regarding establishing tenant protections at multifamily properties with FHFA-backed mortgages (see Memo, 6/5). National organizations and tenant leaders are calling for a robust response to the RFI, as any renter protections created by FHFA could cover a significant share of renters. Advocates have until July 31 to weigh in with FHFA to demand and help shape strong renter protections. NLIHC has several opportunities for tenant leaders and other advocates to engage, including a sample comment letter, an organizational sign-on letter, and a weekly Renter Protections working group.
Join the National Low Income Housing Coalition (NLIHC) at their next working group on Renter Protections to help inform and strengthen NLIHC’s comment letter. This working group has met four times to inform and strengthen the comment letter. They anticipate having two more meetings on July 19 and 26 to review a draft comment letter comprised of a consolidation of suggestions offered during June’s Working Group meetings.
