Statement of Director Sandra L. Thompson on Tenant Protections at Enterprise-Backed Multifamily Properties

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac's (the Enterprises) announcements today of new multifamily tenant protections mark an important milestone by increasing transparency and improving communication between housing providers and tenants. These announcements provide additional details on how the Enterprises will work with housing providers to implement these protections at Enterprise-backed multifamily properties. FHFA and the Enterprises will continue to engage with stakeholders to support both tenants and housing providers as these policies take effect in February 2025.
