Homeowner Assistance Fund — CFDA 21.026

$2.42 billion in federal obligations is indexed on USAspending.gov for the Homeowner Assistance Fund (CFDA 21.026). The listing carries 24 awards, 22 recipients, and a 15-state geographic count. Those dollars are assistance obligations, not outlays and not a count of mortgages, households, or foreclosure preventions. Twenty-four awards against 22 recipients is a concentrated allocation file: almost one row per named state or territory agency, very large average awards, a short geographic map.

Key figures

  • CFDA 21.026 shows $2.42 billion in USAspending obligations for the Homeowner Assistance Fund.
  • The listing covers 24 awards and 22 recipients.
  • Awards are coded to 15 states in the USAspending geographic count.
  • Totals are obligations, not outlays or household counts.

Homeowner Assistance Fund obligations at $2.42 billion

USAspending.gov records $2,420,700,491.40 in obligations under CFDA 21.026. Twenty-four awards produce that stock. A simple average is about $100.9 million per award — among the largest per-row figures in this batch and consistent with state-level emergency housing allocations rather than individual mortgage payments. That average is a quotient of two packet totals, not a typical household benefit.

The assistance-listing title is HOMEOWNER ASSISTANCE FUND. CFDA 21.026 is the identifier. Other Treasury or housing listings tagged under different CFDA numbers are not mixed into the $2.42 billion. Combining those codes would invent a combined housing-relief total this packet does not contain.

22 recipients across 15 states

Twenty-two recipients share 24 awards, or about 1.1 award records per recipient on average. Splitting $2.42 billion evenly would assign about $110.0 million per recipient. That near one-to-one pattern is a closed roster of state and territorial agencies, not thousands of homeowners. The packet does not list the 22. Recipient count is the organizational headcount on the federal award, not a census of households that may receive sub-assistance.

Fifteen states in the geographic count is a short map for a $2.42 billion listing. Coding gaps in the USAspending state field can leave many allocations without a domestic geography tag even when recipients exist. Place-of-performance amounts are on the program table.

Award count is not a mortgage or household count

Among Treasury listings, 21.026 is an extremely low-row, high-dollar file: 24 rows against 22 recipients. Multi-year awards and amendments can still inflate award count relative to unique agencies. Award count is therefore a weak proxy for “number of homeowners helped.” Recipients (22) tell you how many named organizations sit on the extract; awards (24) tell you how many assistance rows were stored.

The packet does not report mortgages cured, households served, or foreclosure counts. Citing 24 as homeowners would be a unit error. Keep the units straight: dollars, awards, recipients, states.

Obligations versus homeowner-relief outlays

The $2.42 billion is an obligation total from USAspending.gov. Outlays — cash paid against Homeowner Assistance Fund awards — are not in the packet. A state agency can show a large obligation stock while household payments follow a slower calendar. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total. A remaining-balance question is an outlay question this extract does not answer.

What the 21.026 tables omit

The Homeowner Assistance Fund hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not a mortgage registry, not a household file, and not an outcomes report. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $2,420,700,491.40. That omission is definitional rather than a gap in the 24 award rows.

Place-of-performance on 15 states is a coding field. Read the program page before treating those cells as equal shares or as the full set of participating jurisdictions. Recipient dollars, if shown on the hub, are still obligation amounts, not cash already paid to homeowners.

Where the 21.026 table lives

The program page overlays these four facts. The all-programs index ranks 21.026 among other assistance listings. Agency pages show awarding-agency rollups that may include this CFDA among other Treasury listings. For 21.026 only, start on the program page.

CFDA 21.026’s 24 awards spread $2,420,700,491.40 across 22 recipients and 15 states. Quote award count as a record count, recipient count as the organizational headcount, and dollars as obligations from USAspending.gov. About 1.1 award records per recipient is the density story on this listing. Outlays remain a separate column. Source: USAspending.gov assistance awards. Read 21.026 as a concentrated Treasury allocation book: 24 awards, 22 agencies, 15 coded states, and $100.9 million averages that describe state-level rows rather than household mortgages. The $2.42 billion remains an obligation stock on USAspending.gov.
