HUD Multifamily Analyst

HUD Multifamily Sr. Analyst

The HUD Multifamily Sr. Analyst plays a critical role within the Underwriting Team, supporting FHA-insured multifamily transactions from application through closing. This position blends traditional loan processing responsibilities with analytical review, issue identification, and proactive deal management.

Under the general direction of the assigned Underwriter, the Analyst is responsible not only for coordinating and assembling complete HUD-compliant loan packages, but also for evaluating information quality, identifying risks and deficiencies, prioritizing workflow, and supporting underwriting decision-making. The role requires independent judgment, strong regulatory knowledge, and the ability to synthesize complex information across multiple third-party reports, borrower submissions, and HUD requirements.

This position is designed for a professional who wants to grow beyond execution into analysis, problem-solving, and ownership of deal readiness.
