Finding Details

US Department of Housing and Urban Development Section 207/223(f) Mortgage Insurance Program Assistance Listing No. 14.134 Criteria: The Project is required by HUD to make monthly deposits to the replacement reserve in the amount prescribed by HUD. Condition: The Project is required by HUD to make monthly deposits to the replacement reserve in the amount prescribed by HUD. Payments for the year under audit were lower than the required deposits. Cause: The Project made monthly deposits to the replacement reserve using the previous HUD communicated amount and did not update the deposit with the new amount. Effect: The Project was not in compliance with HUD requirements regarding monthly deposits to the replacement reserve. Perspective Information: At December 31, 2024, cumulative replacement reserve account deposits were short by $6,222. Recommendation: Management should make a catch-up deposit to the reserve for replacements for $6,222. We recommend the Project strengthen procedures to ensure updates to the monthly replacement reserve deposits are made in the correct amount. View of Responsible Officials: Managing Agent concurs with the finding and agrees with the auditors' recommendation. Management made a deposit of $6,222 on June 5, 2025. No further action is required.
