Beginning in the late 1980s, an increasing number of subsi-
dized unit owners became eligible to prepay mortgages, or to
terminate or not renew their contracts with HUD for project-
based and other forms of unit-based federal housing assis-
tance. Id. at 1202-03. Congress enacted new laws to protect
tenants in assisted units in the event the owner sought to con-
vert the previously subsidized units to market-rate housing.
An early protection was a notice requirement, enacted as part
of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1987.
See Pub. L. No. 100-242, § 262(a), 101 Stat. 1815, 1890-91
(1988) (codified as amended at 42 U.S.C. § 1437f(c)(8)). In
its current form, this protection requires that the owner pro-
vide tenants and the Secretary of HUD (Secretary) with an
opt-out notice not less than one year before the proposed ter-
mination. 42 U.S.C. § 1437f(c)(8)(A). An owner may not
evict tenants or increase the rent until one year after providing
such notice. Id. § 1437f(c)(8)(B). The notice must also “com-
ply with any additional requirements established by the Secre-
tary.” Id. § 1437f(c)(8)(C).
