According to the National Apartment Association, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development recently announced a delay to the HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME): Updates & Streamlining Final Rule, which would impose ten new federally-mandated landlord-tenant requirements for covered housing. The initial rule, which was published on January 6, 2025, and set to take effect on February 5, was originally delayed to maintain consistency with President Trump’s memorandum, “Regulatory Freeze Pending Review.”
In addition, the NAA says due to the uncertainty surrounding the resolution of the shutdown, the implementation of this rule has been pushed back further to April 30, 2026.
