On 7/28/2021, the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) announced that tenants of multifamily properties with mortgages backed by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac who are subject to eviction for nonpayment of rent must be given 30 days’ notice to vacate before the tenant can be required to leave the unit. This requirement applies to all Fannie/Freddie-backed multifamily properties, regardless of whether the loan is in forbearance.

FHFA is working closely with Fannie/Freddie to communicate the 30-day notice requirement to landlords of and tenants living in Enterprise-backed properties.
