Summary

The Secretary of Agriculture must send a yearly report to the right Congressional committees and post it on the Department of Agriculture website about rural housing programs under this part. The report must give key facts on how Rural Housing Service programs are doing. It must include three things: raw data that can be sorted by program and by region about loan performance; information about the housing in those programs and why properties stop taking part (for example, maturation, prepayment, foreclosure, or other servicing problems); and risk ratings for properties that get help. To protect people’s private or financial details, the report’s data can be combined or stripped of identifying information (aggregated or anonymized) before it is published.
