What Is a PFC Regulatory Agreement?

A PFC Regulatory Agreement is a legally binding framework that governs affordability, income eligibility, and occupancy standards for PFC-supported communities. This agreement allows Auxano-managed properties to offer reduced rental rates while complying with Texas law and local regulatory requirements. Auxano provides regulatory compliance services for Texas PFCs and HFCs, supporting owners in meeting statutory requirements, preserving affordability and tax benefits, and reducing regulatory risk.

Compliance support includes review and interpretation of governing Regulatory Agreements; income and occupancy compliance monitoring; affordability and rent set-aside administration; resident certification and recordkeeping oversight; and identification of compliance gaps with corrective guidance.

Requirements

HB 2071 significantly expanded oversight, reporting, and affordability standards for Texas PFCs. Auxano provides comprehensive post–HB 2071 compliance support aligned with statutory requirements and municipal expectations.

HB 21
Requirements

Auxano also supports properties operating under HFCs subject to HB 21, which introduced strengthened accountability, transparency, and affordability requirements.

HB 21 compliance services include affordability and rent compliance administration; income eligibility monitoring and documentation; review of governing agreements and policies; reporting and recordkeeping compliance; and risk identification with corrective action support.

Auxano Development is dedicated to close the gap in this country’s systemic housing crisis. The Harvard Joint Commission on Housing Studies notes that 45% of America is struggling with being “Overburdened” with housing cost. Housing and Urban Development (HUD) defines “Housing Overburdened” as any individual or household that is paying more than 30% of their individual or household income on housing cost. Thus an individual or household are making critical decisions on basic life needs. Do they pay for the cost of housing or do they pay for medical prescriptions, doctors visits, childcare, nutrition, or transportation. These are basic needs that are being put in the balance for quality of life and dignity of life.
