HUD Posts FY19 Housing Trust Fund Allocations

HUD posted national Housing Trust Fund (HTF) allocations for FY19 on April 16. An Excel document shows the FY19 HTF allocation for each state, Puerto Rico, and U.S. Territories. The Federal Housing Finance Agency announced that $245 million is available for the HTF, which is a portion of the 4.2 basis point assessments on the volume of new business of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac during calendar 2018 that go to the HTF and the Capital Magnet Fund (see Memo, 2/19).

In addition, the Office of Community Planning and Development (CPD) also indicates how much each state, entitlement jurisdiction, and Participating Jurisdiction (PJ) will receive from CPD’s other formula-based programs: Community Development Block Grant, HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME), Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG), and Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) programs.
