CARES Act Eviction Moratorium
The CARES Act makes it unlawful to evict renters living in single-family and multifamily properties financed by federally backed mortgages (i.e., Fannie, Freddie, and FHA (Department of Urban and Housing Development [HUD] loans)) and renters living in federally assisted housing. This applies to at least a quarter of rental units. Visit the National Low Income Housing Coalition website for a list of properties in our community subject to the moratorium.
CARES Act Mortgage Forbearance
The CARES Act allows borrowers with federally backed or owned mortgages to request temporary loan forbearance for up to 180 days; borrowers may also apply for an extension of another 180 days of forbearance. About half of the mortgages in the U.S. are federally backed or owned.
Look at your mortgage statement to find out what company services your mortgage. Or you can look up your loan on the Fannie Mae loan look up tool and/or Freddie Mac loan look up tool to see if your loan is owned by one of these federally backed companies.
Borrowers with federally backed or owned mortgages must attest to their mortgage servicers that they are enduring financial hardship as a result of the coronavirus crisis. Once a borrower requests hardship forbearance due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the CARES Act requires the servicer to offer a CARES Act forbearance.
Department of Local Affairs – Model Repayment Agreement for Renters
Executive Order D2020 051 signed by Governor Jared Polis on April 30 placed a moratorium on evictions and late fees for failure to pay rent that will expire on May 30, unless it is extended. The same executive order grants the Colorado Department of Local Affairs (DOLA), Division of Housing (DOH) the authority to provide a template for renters and landlords to make payment arrangements, which may be initiated by either party to prevent late amounts from becoming immediately due when the moratorium expires.
Visit the CDOLA Eviction and Foreclosure Prevention page for the model repayment agreement template, as well as additional information and resources.
