The Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) accepts various documents as satisfactory evidence for determining program eligibility costs:

  • Statements from certified public accountants (CPAs) outlining costs associated with payments made for work
  • Receipts and invoices for paid work
  • HPD compiles these documents to ensure the inspected work matches the work provided by the owner
  • HPD uses these documents to certify the reasonable costs

The application for the program requires evidence of eligibility as a satisfactory to HPD, showing the cost of construction, can you provide examples of what HPD considers to be satisfactory evidence of eligibility?

Yeah.
1:54:53
I think we have actually a couple different types of evidence that we would accept.
1:54:57
1 is you know, a statement from a CPA that lays out the different costs associated with payments made for word

from who

I CPA.

A CPA.
1:55:08
Okay.

But we also accept receipts, the invoices for work that's paid.
1:55:14
And so we we compile a lot of different documents in terms so that we can understand and make sure that the work that's being inspected represents the work that is being provided by the owner and that we can kind of come to what those costs are.
1:55:30
And then I think as Kim kind of described, we take the luster of the actual costs and that certified reasonable costs.
Pierina Ana Sanchez
1:55:38
Okay.

Thank you.
