HUD Compliance Requires More Than Just Competence- It Requires True Expertise

HUD Section 8 Compliance is complex and constantly changing. Keeping up with the changes and maintaining proper compliance is challenging and often frustrating. Amanda Gross created this HUD Compliance course to train housing professionals on how to stay in compliance at all times, and become an expert in HUD Compliance. From applications and waiting list requirements to EIV, our compliance course will cover it all.

HUD’s multifamily housing programs provide safe and affordable housing to our nation’s most vulnerable populations.  In order to help these vital housing programs remain intact, owners/agents need to do their part by operating their HUD properties in accordance with HUD regulations.

Become a True HUD Compliance Expert

The Accredited Compliance Expert (ACE) course is a detailed study of HUD’s 4350.3 Rev-1, Change 4 Handbook. In this two-day course with an online exam, we will review all aspects of Multifamily Section 8 Compliance.

Learning About HUD’s Multifamily Housing Programs

At the center of HUD’s Compliance Policies is household eligibility. During the Conquering HUD Compliance Seminar, you will learn about tenant selection plans, working with income and assets to determine eligibility and calculate rent.  We’ll also cover:

• Civil Rights and Nondiscrimination Requirements
• Lease Requirements
• Recertifications, Unit Transfers, and Interim Certifications
• Gross Rent Charges
• Termination of Assistance and Termination of Tenancy
• Enterprise Income Verification System (EIV)

New HUD HOTMA Changes

HUD’s HOTMA (Housing Opportunity Through Modernization Act of 2016 (HOTMA S. 3083/H.R. 3700 of the 114th Congress) initiative is working through the stages of implementation. HOTMA is going to mean dramatic changes to how applicants and residents for HUD Housing will have their income and assets counted towards eligibility and rent calculation. We will review these changes during this seminar and discuss the dramatic changes coming to HUD’s housing programs.

The Accredited Compliance Expert (ACE) Designation

The ACE Certification is a specialized designation for affordable housing management professionals working with HUD’s Multifamily programs.  Professionals holding this designation have a demonstrable and thorough understanding of determining household eligibility and rent for HUD’s Multifamily Housing programs. The ACE certification exam is an optional exam offered online after the course.  The interactive online exam will provide you with the certification immediately if you pass the exam.
