Appraisals and Property Valuation, Final Rule; Correction
AGENCY: Office of the Assistant Secretary for Housing--Federal Housing
Commissioner, HUD.
ACTION: Final rule; correction.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: On October 3, 1994 (59 FR 50456), the Department published in
the Federal Register, a final rule that established minimum standards
for real estate appraisals made by staff, fee panel and contract
appraisers in determining the maximum insurable mortgage amount in most
HUD/FHA single family (one-to-four family) and multifamily
transactions; and established criteria for the selection of appraisers
by mortgagees. The rule also distinguished those appraisals that may be
performed by state licensed appraisers from those that must be
performed by state certified appraisers.
The purpose of this document is to correct several minor technical
errors contained in the preamble and text of the October 3, 1994, final
rule. It also corrects Sec. 267.1(a) to clarify the limited
applicability of part 267 to the risk-sharing program.
DATES: Effective date: December 2, 1994.
Applicability date: Section 267.10 is applicable to HUD employees
who qualify as certified general appraisers not later than December 31,
1994, unless the Assistant Secretary-Commissioner specifies otherwise
in a specific case.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For single family programs: Morris
Carter, Director, Single Family Development Division, Room 9270,
Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW.,
Washington, DC 20410-8000, telephone, voice: (202) 708-2720; (TDD)
(202) 708-4594. (These are not toll-free numbers.)
For multifamily programs: Linda Cheatham, Director, Office of
Insured Multifamily Development, Room 6134, Department of Housing and
Urban Development, Room 6134, Department of Housing and Urban
Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW., Washington, DC 20410-8000,
telephone, voice: (202) 708-3000; (TDD) 708-4594. (These are not toll-

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This document corrects several minor
technical errors contained in the preamble and text of a final rule on
Appraisals and Property Valuation, that was published in the Federal
Register on October 3, 1994 (59 FR 50456). Section 267.1(a) is also
being corrected to clarify the limited applicability of part 267 to the
risk-sharing program.
Although the final rule, in Sec. 267.1(a), limited part 267 to
National Housing Act mortgage insurance programs, it was the
Department's intention that the multifamily risk-sharing program under
part 266 (which is not a National Housing Program) would also be
covered by provisions in Sec. 267.3(c) regarding a reporting
requirement for the gender and minority classification for appraisers.
This is made clear in references to the risk-sharing program that
appear in Sec. 267.3(c). Section 267.1(a) is being corrected to clarify
this limited applicability of part 267 to the risk-sharing program.
Accordingly, FR Doc. 94-24327, a final rule on Appraisals and
Property Valuation, published in the Federal Register on October 3,
1994 (59 FR 50456), that amended 24 CFR parts 200, 203, 204, and 206,
and added a new part 267, is corrected as follows:
1. On page 50457, in the preamble, in column one, in paragraph two
following the subpart A heading, that refers to the definition for
``FIRREA'', remove ``(d)'' after the word ``definition''.
2. On page 50457, in the preamble, in column one, in paragraph
three, following the subpart A heading, that refers to the definition
for ``Single family program'', remove ``(j)'' after the word
``definition''.

subpart A heading, that refers to the definition ``USPAP'', remove
``(l)'' after the word ``definition''.

one following the subpart B heading, in line three, remove ``(a)''
after the word ``paragraph''.
5. On page 50457, in the preamble, in column three, in paragraph
two following the subpart B heading, in line 10, remove ``(c)'' after
the word ``definition''.
6. On page 50457, in the preamble, in column three, in paragraph
two following the subpart B heading, correct the last sentence in the
paragraph to read, ``Note that there is no parallel definition of
multifamily property in subpart C, which simply includes property in
all National Housing Act mortgage and loan insurance programs that are
excluded from the ``one-to-four- family residential property''
definition, unless completely excluded from the rule under
Sec. 267.1(b).''
7. On page 50461, in the preamble, in the third column, 12 lines
from the bottom, correct the cross-reference ``Sec. 267.3(b)(2)'' to
read ``Sec. 267.3(c)(2)''.
8. On page 50464, in column two, in Sec. 267.1, paragraph (a) is
corrected by adding a sentence at the end to read as follows:

multifamily risk-sharing program under part 266 of this chapter as
provided in Sec. 266.15(b)(8) of this chapter.
Sec. 267.2 [Corrected]
9. On page 50464, in column three, in Sec. 267.2, in the definition
for ``Single family program'', ``Sec. 267.5(c)'' is corrected to read,

10. On page 50465, in column one, in Sec. 267.3, paragraph (c)(3)
is corrected by removing the paragraph designations for paragraphs
(c)(3) (i), (ii), and (iii), and running the text together to form a
single paragraph (c)(3).
Sec. 267.9 [Corrected]
11. On page 50468, in column one, in Sec. 267.9, in line 15,
correct ``Appraisal Foundation'' to read ``Appraisal Subcommittee''.
