The <br />independent entity must provide a copy of the determination of reasonable rent for SAHA-owned <br />units to SAHA and to the HUD field office where the project is located. <br />Owner Certification of Reasonable Rent <br />By accepting each monthly housing assistance payment, the owner certifies that the rent to <br />owner is not more than rent charged by the owner for other comparable unassisted units in the <br />premises. At any time, SAHA may require the owner to submit information on rents charged by <br />the owner for other units in the premises or elsewhere. <br /> <br />17-VIII.D.
