Report To The Honorable William Proxmire

United States Senate







Improving Controls Over Rent And

Management Fees At Multifamily

Housing Projects


The Department of Housing and Urban De-
velopment (HUD) is responsible for review-
ing and approving rent and management
fees at about 16,000 multifamily housing
projects GAO reviewed the criteria and
procedures for approving rent increases and
management fees at three field offices and
found that inadequate controls have result-
ed in excessive rents, higher management
fees, and possible overpayment of HUD
subsidies at some projects.

HUD is in the process of developing proce-
dures to strengthen its rent and manage-
ment fee control processes. GAO recom-
mends that these procedures include

  --further guidance on the analysis and
  documentation required before proc-
  essing rent increase requests,

  --a uniform method for approving man-
  agement fees, and

  --guidelines setting forth supervisory re-
  sponsibilities
