voluntary. The information requested is required to obtain and retain benefits. HUD is authorized to collect this information under
67 FR 66038.

The Federal Housing Administration (“FHA”), an organizational unit of the U.S. Department of
Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”), is planning to offer a portfolio of defaulted singlefamily mortgage loans (the “Mortgage Loans”) through a sale. A sale may include forward
Mortgage Loans, reverse Mortgage Loans, or both; involve pools or sub-pools that require
execution of a Qualification Statement addendum; and be a competitive sale by auction or noncompetitive direct sale. The sale features, Mortgage Loan characteristics, pool types, and related
Qualification Statement documentation requirements will be detailed in the sale-specific
materials provided by FHA. FHA may adjust the certifications contained in this Qualification
Statement or the Addendum as needed for a future sale.
The undersigned (“Bidder”) understands and acknowledges that, before it can register for, or
make an offer to bid in _____________________ [INSERT SALE NAME] (the “Sale”), the
Bidder (whether an individual or an entity) must meet the requirements described below as
evidenced by execution of this Qualification Statement.
___(CHECK IF APPLICABLE) In addition, Bidder has executed a Qualification Statement
Addendum for Nonprofit Pools and Sub-Pools (“Addendum”) to bid on certain Mortgage Loans
in the Sale.
The Bidder must execute the Addendum for participation in any nonprofit pools and sub-pools in
the Sale. The executed Addendum, if applicable, will be attached to, incorporated in, and made a
part of this Qualification Statement.
The information requested herein is being requested for the purpose of providing HUD with
information needed to determine whether the Bidder meets the qualification requirements to bid in
the Sale. All or part of the information provided on this form may also be subject to disclosure
under the Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C. § 552(a) (“FOIA”). Pursuant to HUD’s FOIA

Bidder Qualification. The Bidder understands that, if it is determined to be a qualified bidder
for the Sale, its status as such does not necessarily mean that it will be a qualified bidder for any
other mortgage loans or assets offered in any other FHA/HUD sale. The Bidder also understands
that its status as a qualified bidder for any other FHA/HUD sale does not necessarily mean that
it will be a qualified bidder for the Sale.
ONLY THE NAMED BIDDER IN THIS QUALIFICATION STATEMENT, IF
QUALIFIED, WILL BE ALLOWED TO BID IN THE SALE. Upon award as a successful
bidder in any of the Sale, Bidder may form a special purpose entity to take ownership of the
Mortgage Loans at settlement (the “SPE Acquisition Vehicle”).
However, prior to assignment of the Mortgage Loans, the Bidder must certify that significant
equity owners or principals of the SPE Acquisition Vehicle fulfill the requirements of a qualified
bidder as provided in this Qualification Statement. Additionally, both Bidder and the SPE
Acquisition Vehicle will be designated as counterparties with HUD for the Sale.
