An extension at comparable market rents will not affect a project's eligibility for the Mark-to-Market program once it has been established under this part.\n(c) HUD may terminate the contract earlier if the PAE or HUD determines that an owner is not cooperative under § 401.402 or if the owner's request is rejected under § 401.403 or § 401.405.","path":["Title 24—Housing and Urban Development","Subtitle B—Regulations Relating to Housing and Urban Development","CHAPTER IV—OFFICE OF HOUSING AND OFFICE OF MULTIFAMILY HOUSING ASSISTANCE RESTRUCTURING, DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT","PART 401—MULTIFAMILY HOUSING MORTGAGE AND HOUSING ASSISTANCE RESTRUCTURING PROGRAM (MARK-TO-MARKET)","Subpart E—Section 8 Requirements for Restructured Projects"],"source_url":"https://www.ecfr.gov/api/versioner/v1/full/2026-08-25/title-24.xml","current_through":"2026-08-25","vintage":"","retrieved_at":"2026-08-27T02:24:55Z","sha256":"61b15a67d7690dfdba00fc6868d28536b77cc23bdf1ef21f2b581777e463b6aa","source_id":"us-cfr","stale":true,"prev":"us/24-cfr-401.595","next":"us/24-cfr-401.601"},"notice":"GroundRules: Original legal text.
