    (a) This part states the requirements and procedures governing 

public housing homeownership programs involving sales of individual 

dwelling units to families or to purchase and resale entities (PREs) for 

resale to families carried out by public housing agencies (PHAs), as 

authorized by section 32 of the United States Housing Act of 1937 (42 

U.S.C. 1437z-4) (1937 Act). A PHA may only transfer public housing units 

for homeownership under a homeownership program approved by HUD under 

this part, except as provided under Sec.  906.3. This section does not 

govern new construction or substantial rehabilitation of units sold 

under this part. Such construction or rehabilitation is governed by the 

public housing development and modernization regulations.

    (b) Under a public housing homeownership program, a PHA makes 

available for purchase by low-income families for use as their principal 

residences public housing dwelling units, public housing developments, 

and other housing units or developments owned, assisted, or operated, or 

otherwise acquired by the PHA for sale under a homeownership program in 

connection with the use of assistance provided under the 1937 Act (1937 

Act funds). A PHA may sell all or a portion of a property for purposes 

of homeownership in accordance with a HUD-approved homeownership 

program, and in accordance with the PHA's annual plan under part 903 of 

this title.
