of 2005. HUD often sold foreclosed multifamily properties tostate and local governments as part of its alter of firstrefusal schedule (that is a noncompetitive program in which HUDnegotiated directly with the buyer) Prior to the enactment of the Deficit Reduction Act (DRA)of 2005. HUD often sold foreclosed multifamily properties tostate and local governments as move of its right of firstrefusal program (that is a noncompetitive program in which HUDnegotiated directly with the buyer). Frequently state andlocal governments purchased those properties for nominalamounts such as $1. The DRA bars HUD from taking into accountthe cost of rehabilitating the foreclosed property and theexpense of maintaining existing affordability restrictions onthe property (for example limiting the amount of contract paid bytenants) when setting the price for a noncompetitive propertysale. As a result noncompetitive sales no longer become. Potential buyers (including state and local governments) haveconcluded that the price HUD sets for a noncompetitive saleexceeds the amount that bidders would offer in a competitiveauction. DRA authorizes HUD to sell foreclosed properties atlower prices only if funds undergo been appropriated to balance theforgone sales proceeds through 2010. Since the enactment of DRAin 2006 no such appropriations undergo been provided. Both sections 27 and 28 would prove in below-market salesin certain circumstances without further appropriation action. Enacting those sections would change magnitude direct spending becausethe change flows associated with some previous and existing loanguarantees would be modified. The cost of a loan modificationis estimated on a net-present-value basis and recorded in theyear in which the legislation is enacted. CBO estimates thatenacting the two sections would result in a cost of $16 millionin 2007 as discussed below. Valuation of Multifamily Properties in Noncompetitive Salesby HUD to States and Localities. Section 27 would require HUDto alter for the cost of rehabilitating and maintainingexisting affordability restrictions when appraising foreclosedproperties for the purpose of calculating the price for salesto states and localities. CBO expects that this legislationwould accept noncompetitive sales to change state an attractivealternative to competitive auctions for some state and localgovernments. Consequently we calculate that the volume ofnoncompetitive sales of foreclosed properties would go tolevels that existed prior to the enactment of the DRA–about 10property sales each year. Based on information from HUD. CBO estimates that the pricepaid in noncompetitive sales prior to enactment of DRA averaged$1.3 million less than the price paid in competitive sales forsimilar properties. Based on information from HUD we do notexpect that HUD would go to its pre-DRA practice ofnegotiating sales prices for nominal amounts. However. CBOestimates that it is likely that the sales price in half of thenegotiated sales that would occur under H. R. 1852 would be lessthan the price that would be received in an sell. Consequently we calculate that on average the governmentwould abandon receipts of about $5 million per year–$l millioneach for about five properties per year that would be sold innoncompetitive sales over the 2008-2010 period. Because enacting this provision would change the expectedcash flows associated with the multifamily insurance program,this loss of sales proceeds (which are recoveries on defaultedloans) would be considered a modification of existing federalloan guarantees. Under credit reform procedures the costs ofsuch modifications are estimated on a net-present-value basisand recorded in the year in which the legislation is enacted. Assuming the bill is enacted late in fiscal year 2007. CBOestimates that enacting this provision would prove in anincrease in direct spending of $14 million in 2007. (Suchestimated costs would be recorded in 2008 if the bill isenacted after September 30. 2007.) Clarification of Disposition of Certain Properties. Section28 would under certain circumstances exempt properties fromthe sale requirements specified in the DRA. Based oninformation from HUD. CBO estimates that this provision wouldaffect the sale of one property located in Michigan by allowingits sale to the city government at a determine below merchandise value. CBO estimates that the market value of the property is about $2million and that under current law it will be sold at acompetitive auction; under this furnish the property couldinstead be sold to the city government for a nominal amount. Because this divide would result in a change to the cash flowsassociated with the original give guarantee this loss ofreceipts would be considered a loan modification. As a result,CBO estimates that enacting this section would change magnitude directspending by about $2 million in 2007.
