24 C.F.R. § 891.832
§ 891.832 Prohibited relationships. (24 CFR Part 891)
Operative Text
(a) Paragraph (a) of § 891.130, describing conflicts of interest, applies to mixed finance developments. (b) Paragraph (b) of § 891.130, describing identity of interest, does not apply to mixed-finance developments.
Under 24 CFR Part 891 § 891.832, mixed-finance developments are subject to the conflict-of-interest rules carried over from § 891.130(a), meaning that certain financial or personal relationships between parties involved in a project are restricted. However, the identity-of-interest restrictions found in § 891.130(b) are explicitly carved out and do not apply to mixed-finance developments. This creates a tailored regulatory framework for mixed-finance projects that enforces conflict-of-interest protections while relaxing the separate identity-of-interest requirements.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Owners and managers of mixed-finance developments operating under 24 CFR Part 891 § 891.832 are generally expected to comply with the conflict-of-interest standards referenced in § 891.130(a), which means scrutinizing relationships among principals, contractors, and other involved parties for prohibited conflicts. At the same time, compliant operators of mixed-finance projects recognize that the identity-of-interest provisions of § 891.130(b) do not govern their projects, which can affect how related-party arrangements are structured and disclosed. Maintaining clear documentation of all relevant relationships helps demonstrate adherence to the applicable conflict-of-interest rules.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Tenants residing in mixed-finance developments covered by 24 CFR Part 891 § 891.832 have an interest in knowing that conflict-of-interest protections under § 891.130(a) still apply to their housing, even though identity-of-interest rules do not. If a tenant believes that prohibited conflicts of interest are affecting the management or operation of their development, general enforcement paths may include raising the concern with the project's management, contacting HUD directly, or reaching out to a local tenant-rights organization for guidance. Understanding which rules apply to a specific development type can be an important starting point when evaluating potential concerns.
