FHA Catalyst: Multifamily Application Portal

The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)/Federal Housing Administration’s (FHA) Office of Multifamily Housing Programs (MFH) has developed a web-based portal for FHA-approved multifamily lenders to submit applications for FHA multifamily mortgage insurance to HUD electronically. The FHA Catalyst: Multifamily Application Portal (“FHA Catalyst”), is anticipated to be released in fall 2020 and will aid in the collection of information for FHA multifamily mortgage insurance program applications. United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Federal Housing Administration (FHA) 24 CFR 202.5, 207, 213, 220, 221, 231, 241, and 266 authorize HUD/FHA to collect information and conduct operations under these programs. FHA Catalyst will allow FHA-approved multifamily lenders to submit electronic applications for FHA multifamily mortgage insurance and related documents to HUD through a web-based portal, and HUD staff will be able to receive and download the documents from the portal. The system is designed to streamline existing processes for collecting information to administer FHA multifamily mortgage insurance programs; no new information will be collected as a result of FHA Catalyst.

The latest form for FHA Catalyst: Multifamily Application Portal expires 2021-05-31 and can be found here.
