Abstract:
This is a new data collection funded by Congress and provided to HUD. It will be undertaken by a team of outside contractors managed by HUD PD&R. The data collected will be used to evaluate common and best practices in capital needs assessments (CNAs) undertaken by PHAs, develop an estimate of the overall capital needs of public housing projects, and support recommendations on how HUD can estimate the capital needs of public housing and address barriers to PHAs in meeting their public housing capital needs. A main goal of this assessment is to better understand whether a non-inspection-based approach can yield reliable and valid results that are comparable to those in past studies, if not better. HUD and its contractor will administer a web-based survey to an initial sample of approximately 300 PHAs to collect data on their CNA estimates, their practices to arrive at those estimates, and their use of those estimates. After analyzing the data from the first survey of PHAs, HUD and its contractor will administer a second web-based survey of another 500 PHAs. The second survey will ask many of the same questions as the first survey. Both surveys will provide data that, when combined with HUD’s other data sources, will be used to estimate the capital needs of public housing following an iterative and duplicable approach. Both surveys include questions about the processes that PHAs use to assess their capital needs. Based on responses to those questions, the study will assess PHAs’ processes to see how they compare to in-person data collection methods used in previous CNAs and to industry best practices. This study uses a mixed-methods approach to qualitative and quantitative data collection that relies on the following: • Existing secondary data sources, where available, from HUD, a sample of PHAs, and other public sources, along with data from a third-party vendor specializing in CNAs for PHAs. • A review of the literature on CNAs from available HUD and private industry sources. • Primary data sources consisting of interviews with a small sample of staff from fewer than 10 PHAs and industry experts from fewer than 10 specializations, including mortgage lenders, multifamily housing owners and operators, and public housing stakeholder organizations. • Primary data from a survey of two samples of a total of 800 PHAs.
