    Description of the need for the information and proposed use: The 
Mark to Market Program is authorized under the Multifamily Assisted 
Housing Reform and Affordability Act of 1997 as extended by the Market 
to Market Extension Act of 2001. The information collection is required 
and will be used to determine the eligibility of FHA-insured 
multifamily properties for participation in the Mark to Market program 
and the terms on which such participation should occur as well as to 
process eligible properties from acceptance into the program through 
closing of the mortgage restructure in accordance with program 
guidelines. The result of participation in the program is the 
refinancing and restructure of the property's FHA-insured mortgage and, 
generally the reduction of Section 8 rent payments and establishment of 
adequately funded accounts to fund required repair and rehabilitation 
of the property.
