The Federal Housing Finance Agency should think twice, then disregard any plans to further cut the multifamily business of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, according to the ranking member of the House Financial Services Subcommittee on Capital Markets and GSEs. In a letter to the FHFA earlier this month, Rep. Carolyn Maloney, D-NY, noted that since the Finance Agency implemented “an arbitrary” 10 percent cut in GSE multifamily business for 2013, “an additional reduction further depresses the housing market nationwide, reduces the availability of rental housing, and actually harms the financial stability” of Fannie and Freddie by limiting proven revenue-generating opportunities.
