Topics and Issues

Residential/Tenant Screening (81)

In April 2023, the FHFA announced that it will shortly

issue a Request for Input (RFI) on multifamily tenant protections. Previously, FHFA announced in the White House Blueprint for a Renters Bill of Rights that the Agency would conduct a public stakeholder engagement process to identify tangible solutions for addressing the challenges renters are facing nationwide, particularly among underserved communities. The Agency has committed to a transparent process that includes broad participation from diverse voices. Additionally, FHFA instructed Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (the Enterprises) to explore the feasibility of expanding multifamily tenant protections for properties they finance and to identify strategies and activities that could facilitate a greater amount of affordable rental housing supply.

Comments on the FHFA RFI will be posted to https://www.fhfa.gov/AboutUs/Contact/Pages/input-submissions.aspx for tenant protections.
