The Federal Housing Administration extended its foreclosure and eviction moratorium through December 31, 2020. The announcement was made in Mortgagee Letter 2020-27.
“Due to the continued national emergency resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, HUD is issuing this ML to extend the moratorium issued in ML 2020-19 for all FHA-insured mortgages except those secured by vacant or abandoned properties,” the mortgagee latter says.
The moratorium extension takes effect immediately upon the expiration of the moratorium announced in ML 2020-19, which was due to expire on August 31.
