HOTMA COMPLIANCE ASSESSMENT

Find HOTMA compliance gaps before your next recertification does.

Run through income, assets, deductions, documents and staff procedures to see which parts of the process need attention. Get a prioritized assessment and a clearer starting point for the updates your properties require.

Choose your portfolio type to see the most relevant examples.

Check the eight areas a HOTMA file depends on.

HOTMA readiness is not a checkbox. Work through assets, income, deductions, paperwork and team procedures against the rule and effective date applicable to the property.

HOTMA dates differ by program: HUD Multifamily, public housing and vouchers from January 1, 2027; USDA Rural Development from July 1, 2025; LIHTC on your state agency’s schedule, since the IRS has issued no HOTMA date of its own.

Find the process gap before it becomes a recertification delay.

A weak step in your process shows up later as missing evidence or a bad certification. Find that step and fix it before the next file comes due.

Assess the actual workflow: eight areas incl. income certification workflow, recertification tracking and HUD reporting; readiness tier and score per area.

Connect every finding to the relevant HUD guidance.

Every question shows the guidance behind it, so your team can check the source before acting on the recommendation.

HUD Multifamily guidance (Notice H 2025-07) sets full compliance for January 1, 2027, and every result here names the source for its own program.

Show the current authority beside the result: every time-sensitive result shows source, reviewed date and program applicability; turn readiness into a prioritized plan.

Each area gets its own score, so your weakest areas rise to the top. In a demo, we run those areas against your own properties.

The result is general information, not legal advice.

EEVA PORTFOLIO INTELLIGENCE

Turn a missing document into the next task.

Once you know your gaps, the workflows keep the HOTMA work moving. Your team makes the decisions.

Collect HOTMA income and asset documents early.

Recert on Rails tells each household at 120, 90, 60 and 30 days which HOTMA income and asset documents to upload, reviews the verifications that come back, drafts the certification and books the interview. Your compliance staff sign it off.

Close the overdue files your score flagged.

Every morning, Audit Ready finds missing and expired evidence and overdue certifications in each household file, sends the household a document request and gives staff a task to close the gap, then helps assemble the review packet.

Act on new HUD income limits as they load.

When published guidance or values change, such as new HUD income limits, Rule Change Response shows which workflows and household files are affected and what the change could mean, and gives each affected property a task to review them and queue any notices. You approve each change before it takes effect.

Route doubtful documents to a person.

When an application comes in, Screening Shield checks every document for signs of tampering, adds bank-verified income where it is available and puts any concerns in one packet, with the reasons, for staff to review. It never contacts the applicant and never approves or denies anyone.

Ask EEva how the rule applies to your program.

EEva reads your results and names the two areas to fix first, so you start with the biggest risk instead of the longest list.
