Model Tenant Selection Plan (TSP) and Guide
NMA's Model Tenant Selection Plan (TSP) and Guide provides the basis for writing the project's TSP by recommending language for each area in which owner/agents have discretion or flexibility to develop their own policies.
For each policy decision, the accompanying instruction guide offers important points to consider and customizable policy choices so that you can choose the best policy to suit your project’s needs. The model TSP cites and describes HUD regulations following the HUD handbook 4350.3 REV-1, Chg. 4 in detail, which provides your project with a solid foundation in policy-making.
NMA's Model Tenant Selection Plan and Guide also includes RAD-specific language for properties undergoing a RAD conversion.
