(2) Adjustment of qualifying rent.— The Secretary may adjust the qualifying rent established for a project under subparagraph (A) of paragraph (1), only if the Secretary finds that such adjustment is necessary to support the continued financial viability of the project and only by such amount as the Secretary determines is necessary to maintain continued financial viability of the project. (3) Increases in tenant income.— Housing shall qualify as affordable housing despite a temporary noncompliance with subparagraph (B) or (C) of paragraph (1) if such noncompliance is caused by increases in the incomes of existing tenants and if actions satisfactory to the Secretary are being taken to ensure that all vacancies are filled in accordance with paragraph (1) until such noncompliance is corrected. Tenants who no longer qualify as low-income families shall pay as rent not less than 30 percent of the family’s adjusted monthly income, as recertified annually. (4) Mixed-income project.— Housing that accounts for less than 100 percent of the dwelling units in a project shall qualify as affordable housing if such housing meets the criteria of this section. (5) Mixed-use project.— Housing in a project that is designed in part for uses other than residential use shall qualify as affordable housing if such housing meets the criteria of this section. (b) Homeownership.— Housing that is for homeownership shall qualify as affordable housing under this title only if the housing— (1) has an initial purchase price that does not exceed 95 percent of the median purchase price for the area, as determined by the Secretary with such adjustments for differences in structure, including whether the housing is single-family or multifamily, and for new and old housing as the Secretary determines to be appropriate; (2) is the principal residence of an owner whose family qualifies as a low-income family at the time of purchase; (3) is made available for initial purchase only to first-time homebuyers; (4) is made available for subsequent purchase only— (A) to persons who meet the qualifications specified under paragraph (2), and (B) at a price consistent with guidelines that are established by the participating jurisdiction and determined by the Secretary to be appropriate— (i) to provide the owner with a fair return on investment, including any improvements, and (ii) to ensure that the housing will remain affordable to a reasonable range of low income homebuyers; and (5) if newly constructed, meets the energy efficiency standards promulgated by the Secretary in accordance with section 109 of this Act.
