During the webinar our expert speaker Paul Flogstad will discuss about the requirements and procedures for determining whether applicant families may participate in HUD-subsidized multifamily housing programs. Paul will also talk about the steps an owner must follow to determine whether a family is eligible to receive assistance in a HUD-subsidized multifamily property and eligible to live in a specific property and unit.  These activities are described in a sequential order; however, owners may deviate from this sequence based on project circumstances as long as they determine an applicant’s eligibility before admitting the family to the property.
