The information is used by appraisers
and/or underwriters upon their review of the appraisal report
(USAR) to determine if a property meets FHA guidelines to be
eligible for HUD mortgage insurance. Underwriters are required to
sign and submit a copy of the completed form to HUD for endorsement
as part of the case binder; to provide a copy to the homebuyer; and
to maintain a copy for the mortgagee.
The number of respondents has
been corrected to show all FHA approved lenders and allowing for
stragglers and small lenders. FHA loan volume has increased, but
all lenders contacted provide borrowers with appraisals in lieu of
the form HUD-92800.5B. The form is required to be included in all
case binders for FHA-insured mortgages. For most mortgages the form
is not provided to the borrower, the form is provided to the
borrower when the repairs to the home were required. Reportedly,
available data do not capture the number of properties for which
repairs are required, other than Section 203k.
