Eligible Structures

With regard to structures, the following requirements apply:

  • The structure may be of any type, but when rehabilitation is completed, the unit must meet the definition of SRO housing. SRO housing is defined as a residential property that includes multiple single room dwelling units. Each unit is for occupancy by a single eligible individual. The unit need not, but may, contain food preparation or sanitary facilities, or both.
  • Efficiency units are also eligible, but the contract rent charged for these units may not exceed the Moderate Rehabilitation SRO FMR minus the allowance for tenant- paid utilities, if applicable. Under no circumstances are 1-bedroom units eligible for assistance.
  • Each assisted unit in the structure must require a minimum of $3,000 of rehabilitation, including its prorated share of work to be accomplished on common areas or systems, to meet HQS.
  • Following rehabilitation, the units must meet HUD HQS as specified in 24 CFR 882.804(b).
  • Ineligible properties include: (a) units that are receiving Federal funding for rental assistance or operating costs under other HUD programs; (b) nursing homes; (c) penal, reformatory, medical, or mental health institutions; (d) owner-occupied units; and (e) housing located in the Coastal Barrier Resource system designated under the Coastal Barriers Resource Act.
