HUD: Multifamily Utility Allowance Factors

The Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Office of Housing
permits owners/agents to use Utility Allowance Factors (UAFs) for
projects subject to the requirements found in Housing’s Utility Analysis
Notice. The notice describes when owners/agents of Multifamily Housing
properties that receive a utility allowance may use the published UAFs
to adjust these allowances. The dataset is updated once per year and is
published with an effective date. The dataset is based on information
published by the U.S. Energy Information Administration and the Bureau
of Labor Statistics. Owners/agents will determine their utility and
state specific UAF and apply the published UAF to their existing
allowance for the utility allowance they are adjusting.<br><br>***<br>Microdata: No<br>Level of Analysis: States (utility allowance)<br>Variables Present: Yes<br>File Layout: .xlsx<br>Codebook: No<br>Methods: No<br>Weights (with appropriate documentation): No<br>Publications: No<br>Aggregate Data: No
