Housing Miscellany

- Meant to mention yesterday's OFHEO final rule on mortgage fraud reporting.

- NH&RA notes a Fannie Mae report of $11.8 billion in rental housing investment "during the first half of 2005," and they've spotted a HUD release of new Section 8 utility allowances earlier this month.

[UPDATE: Apologies, this utility allowance notice appears to be relevant only to the state of New Jersey.]

- Odd wording at least: HUD has appointed one person to serve as the "board of directors" for the Housing Authority of New Orleans, succeeding another one-person "board" who has served since the agency first came under HUD receivership in 2001. (Any readers here feel able to tell us what's up with that?)
