Compliance Gray Areas

March 25, 2010, 1–2:30 PM EST

In this webinar, Senior Compliance Trainer Joe Thomas will delve into some of the murkies areas of HUD compliance, drawing on the insights of compliance experts such as NCHM Vice President of Compliance Mark S. Alper.

The presentation will teach participants:
