Tools

Tool	What it returns	Try asking
`which_232_program`	Which Section 232 program fits (223(f), 223(a)(7), new construction or 241(a)) from the same questions as the home page chooser, with eligibility warnings and that program's limits, fees, reports and HUD closing time.	Which HUD loan fits a 60-bed assisted living facility that opened five years ago and has no HUD loan?
`get_queue_times`	This week's HUD ORCF Section 232 queue: applications waiting by program, Express Lane counts, days waiting, this week's assignments, and the saved weekly history.	How many 223(f) applications are in HUD's queue right now?
`estimate_232_timeline`	Median days for each step from firm application to closing, from HUD's closings file, with dates from your application date; firm-to-close times by fiscal year for the other programs.	If we submit a 223(f) firm application on December 1, when would it close?
`get_closing_stats`	Note rates at closing by program and month from HUD's fiscal-year closings file, and loans endorsed per fiscal year.	What note rate did HUD 223(f) loans close at last fiscal year?

Discovery file: /.well-known/mcp.json. For bulk use, the queue history, closing rates and processing times are free CSV and JSON downloads on the data page.

License and attribution

HUD data is public domain. The compilation is CC BY 4.0: credit "Data: Route 232 (fhaassistedliving.loan)" with a link. Route 232 is published by Janover Capital LLC and is not affiliated with HUD or FHA. Nothing returned is a loan approval, a rate quote or a promise of timing.

Questions

Is there a cost or an API key?

No. The server is free, read-only and needs no key or sign-in. Please cite the Route 232 page or the HUD source that comes back with each answer.

Where does the data come from?

HUD ORCF's weekly underwriting queue report, HUD's fiscal-year Lean closings file and its healthcare firm commitment and endorsement database, plus HUD Handbook 4232.1 for the program rules. The server reads the same records as the pages on this site.

Is a timeline or rate here a promise or a quote?

No. Times are what HUD took on loans it already closed, and rates are note rates on those loans. Your lender and HUD's queue decide your dates and rate.
