U. S. DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT
WASHINGTON, D. C. 20410-8000

January 11, 1991
OFFICE OF THE ASSISTANT SECRETARY FOR
HOUSING-FEDERAL HOUSING COMMISSIONER
Mortgagee Letter 91-2
    TO:  ALL APPROVED MORTGAGEES
    SUBJECT:  DELEGATED PROCESSING SERVICES FOR MULTIFAMILY MORTGAGE
              INSURANCE PROGRAMS
 
         The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)
    requires the services of HUD-approved mortgagees (delegated
    processors) to process applications for multifamily housing
    projects to be insured pursuant to Sections 221(d), 223(f), and
    232 of the National Housing Act.  The delegated processing system
    has three objectives:  to augment Field Office staff capacity;
    reduce processing time; and to enable HUD to control overall
    underwriting determinations.  This system will be used at the
    discretion of Field Office Managers when necessary to meet these
    objectives.  HUD expects to implement the new delegated
    processing system on a national basis by April 1, 1991.
 
         Under this system, HUD will delegate certain processing and
    underwriting responsibilities to selected HUD-approved
    mortgagees.  Such mortgagees must be in good standing with the
    Department and be able to demonstrate the capability to perform
    multifamily underwriting in an acceptable manner.  The
    underwriting and processing responsibilities to be delegated
    include valuation, cost estimating, architect/engineering, and
    mortgage credit (financial analysis) functions of multifamily
    mortgage insurance processing.  Processors will complete the
    preliminary underwriting analysis and return their
    recommendations to the cognizant Field Office.  The Field Office
    will review the processing and recommendations, make the final
    underwriting determination, and issue the commitment, if
    warranted.  Under no circumstances may a delegated processor be
    the mortgagee of record for the application being processed nor
    may the Principals or key staff of the delegated processor
    (whether directly employed or under contract) have an identity of
    interest, however slight, in that application.  Anticipated
    period of performance is April 1, 1991 through September 30,
    1991, with up to four, 6 months options to renew.  All
    responsible sources may submit an offer which shall be considered
    by HUD.
 
         Interested parties should contact the Regional Contracting
    Officer in the Region(s) for which they are interested (State
    abbreviations are in parentheses):
