Montgomery on HUD Enforcement 

The increase in the number and severity of enforcement actions taken by HUD associated with FHA single-family loans appears to be the result of instability in the markets following the economic downturn and the increase in the FHA's market share. In an article on Mortgage News Daily, Brian Montgomery, former FHA Commissioner and current Vice Chairman of The Collingwood Group addressed the appearance of increased HUD enforcement actions. Montgomery points out that HUD has a number of enforcement tools and multiple offices that monitor lending practices and handle enforcement.  Included in these offices are: • HUD's Office of Inspector General
