FHA Recertification Deadlines

We received an email this week from CAI regarding a change in the FHA recertification process for condominiums. As many of you may know, all FHA approvals granted prior to October, 2008 were scheduled to expire on December 7, 2010. FHA has decided to extend the deadlines to allow more condominiums to take advantage of the recertification process.

The new schedule for project approval expirations is below:

Initial Project Approval Dates Current Expiration Date

New Expiration Date

1972 – 1980 December 7, 2010 December 31, 2010
1981 – 1985 December 7, 2010 December 31, 2010
1986 – 1990 December 7, 2010 May 31, 2011
1991 – 1995 December 7, 2010 July 31, 2011
1996 – 2000 December 7, 2010 August 31, 2011
2001 – 2005 December 7, 2010 September 30, 2011

If you are unsure whether your condominium is on the FHA approved condominium list or when it received approval, you can find out by searching for your condominium by name and location at the following web address: https://entp.hud.gov/idapp/html/condlook.cfm.
