Small HAs, however, may not be able to afford full-scale random digit dialing surveys, which cost from $10,000 to $12,000. For these HAs, this guide provides specific advice and guidelines about the format and contents of an alternative submission. This guide is intended to help the directors of small HAs choose the best, most cost-effective means of surveying the rental housing stock in their market areas. Of the options, the simplified list-assisted telephone survey method offers the least costly means of obtaining valid FMR estimates for housing agencies that manage under about 500 Section 8 units, in FMR areas with under 5,000 rental units. However, even the smallest HAs might wish to review this guide for suggestions on how to conduct surveys. It describes survey options and provides specific advice and guidelines for conducting valid surveys and submitting comments that will meet HUD's statistical requirements. This guide covers all the steps in preparing the comments: Deciding whether to conduct a survey and submit a comment. Developing a list of all types of rental units from which to select households to interview. Deciding how many households must be interviewed to meet HUD standards. Choosing an effective, reliable way to randomly select the correct number of households to be interviewed. Deciding whether to interview renters by telephone, by mail, or in person. Processing the data and computing the 40th percentile rent. Verifying that the survey's results represent the rental housing stock of the entire FMR area. Preparing and packaging the comment for HUD. This guide describes three alternatives that are less expensive than a full-scale random digit dialing (RDD) telephone survey. The first is a simplified telephone survey. The second involves collecting data from renters by mail or by going door to door, interviewing tenants in person. The third alternative involves collecting data from property owners by phone. All three emphasize the importance of obtaining a sample that is statistically representative of rental housing units in an entire FMR areahigh and low rent, houses and apartments, and urban and rural. HUD will not accept survey results that do not meet these requirements. Alternative 1: List-Assisted Telephone Surveys. The first, and preferred, alternative is commonly called a list-assisted telephone survey. This approach is less precise than full-scale RDD surveys but is less complicated and is specifically designed for smaller HAs that cannot afford RDD surveys. If correctly done, list-assisted telephone surveys will yield results that are based on statistically valid samples and therefore are likely to be acceptable to HUD. Alternative 2: Mail and In-Person (Traditional) Surveys. The second method uses other means of obtaining a representative sample of rental residences. The data are collected through the mail or from interviews conducted with renters in person, rather than by telephone. Mail surveys cost less to implement than full-scale RDD telephone surveys but cost about as much as list-assisted telephone surveys. The cost of collecting the same data by conducting interviews in person, however, is more difficult to predict and depends to a large extent on the geographic distribution of eligible rental units in a particular market. Alternative 3: Property Owner Surveys. The third method involves surveying property owners or managers, usually by phone. This method can be used only in the relatively rare instances where complete lists of property owners are available, and usually will be accepted only for the smallest areas. These methods are intended for smaller HAs, from whom we are willing to accept lower standards of survey precision than from larger HAs. While larger HAs may use these simplified methods, they are likely to find that full-scale RDD surveys are more cost-effective and result in greater standards of precision that are, consequently, more likely to be acceptable to HUD. Regardless of the method used, HUD will subject your survey results to certain statistical checks, and will make the final decision about whether to use them. As stated in the Federal Register's Notices of Proposed Fair Market Rents, the survey data needed to comment on a proposed FMR must "include sufficient information (including local data and a full description of the methodology used) to justify any proposed changes." The submission must: Satisfactorily document that the findings are based on a statistically representative sample of rental households in a particular FMR area. Clearly indicate the 40th percentile, two-bedroom equivalent gross rent (percentile estimates for other bedroom sizes may also be submitted). The gross rent for a unit is defined as the contract rent plus the cost of all tenant-paid utilities, except telephones. The currently approved Section 8 utility allowance schedule is used to determine the utility costs that should be added to each surveyed unit. Exclude data for units in public housing projects, housing built in the last 2 years, seasonal units, and units where the full market rent is not known. What Is a "Statistically Representative" Survey? A statistically representative survey is not necessarily a large one. A relatively small, properly conducted survey may be more representative of an FMR area than a large, poorly designed one. A statistically representative survey has the following characteristics: The sample is drawn from a list that includes all types of rental units in an FMR area. The list must include apartments and single-family structures; old and (most) new buildings; urban and rural housing units; and, most importantly, low-rent units along with medium- and high-rent units. The survey is sampled from this list randomlythat is, the sample must be selected scientifically, using one of the simple methods described in Section 4. Nonscientific sampling methods, such as choosing units in a certain neighborhood, or households which are likely to cooperate with the survey, inevitably lead to inaccurate results. The survey is administered so as not to bias the answers, or "lead" the respondents. The questions asked and the publicity surrounding the survey must not influence respondents' answers or encourage responses from specific groups of renters. The survey adequately follows up nonrespondents. It is not acceptable to drop a nonrespondent without trying numerous times to get a response. Interviewers must try to contact each randomly selected household at least four times before dropping it from the survey. The survey must avoid ending up with an overabundance of "easy" responses; it is easier to contact and interview retired, elderly, or unemployed tenants because they are likely to be home more often than other people. However, their rents may differ greatly from those paid by younger, employed tenants. Costs All FMR comments that can be used by HUD involve costs. Hiring a contractor to conduct a formal RDD would cost from $10,000 to $12,000. The simplified list-assisted telephone survey recommended here has an estimated cost of about $5,000 to $7,000, including the cost of purchasing a list of telephone numbers. This assumes that the HA will conduct the survey; outside contractors are likely to charge somewhat more. Out-of-pocket costs would be about 40 percent of the total; the remainder would be costs for HA staff. In addition, if the HA believes that the survey must be based on recent movers, its costs will be about 30-40 percent higher. A traditional survey is not likely to be substantially cheaper than a simplified telephone survey because of the considerable staff time required in the sampling and surveying phases, as well as out-of-pocket expenses for postage, telephone calls, and data processing. Traditional surveys are much more likely to produce unacceptably biased results than telephone surveys. 1. Deciding Whether to Comment HUD uses the best nationwide data available in computing FMRs. The largest and best sample is the decennial Census, which asks fully one-sixth of U.S. households detailed questions about their housing expenses and characteristics. The Census sample is carefully drawn, response rates are very high, and the data are carefully edited. The FMRs are based on special tabulations created by the Census Bureau for HUD that are more detailed than anything available in published form. (Tabulations from this file are available from HUD field office economists.) The FY 1994 FMRs were the first to be based on the 1990 Census. Post-1990 updates of Census results are based on data from the American Housing Survey, Consumer Price Index Survey (where available, mostly in larger FMR areas), or formal RDD telephone surveys, which include a set of 20 separate annual RDDs for the metropolitan and nonmetropolitan parts of the 10 HUD regions, and RDD surveys of selected individual areas. Until the next Census rebenchmarking, the principal reasons for inaccuracies in the proposed FMRs are unusual occurrences in an area's rental market that are not reflected in the regional updating factors. Significant changes in local rental markets not detected by HUD can result in discrepancies between proposed FMRs and actual local rents. Such changes might include: Relocation of a major employer into the area. Major changes in the size or quality of the rental housing stock in the area. Major changes in the size and composition of the renter population, such as those caused by a sudden influx of wealthy retirees. Before going to the trouble and expense of submitting a formal comment, you should be reasonably convinced that either the baseline (1990) data or HUD's post-1990 updates are wrong and that enough Section 8 units are involved to justify the survey. 2. Listing the Sample Universe Your survey must represent the entire rental market in your FMR area. More comments are rejected because of sampling defects than for all other problems. If the list from which you draw a sample is biased or incomplete, the survey will also be biased, no matter how large a sample you use or how carefully you draw it. A usable sample must represent all rental units, regardless of the size of the project, the year they were built, their location within the FMR area, or their rent levels. An upward bias is likely to occur if rural units are ignored. In many markets a survey of large, multi-unit rental buildings is likely to be biased upward, no matter how large the sample is or how well the survey is conducted. Rented single-family homes and converted or accessory apartments, many of which are advertised informally rather than through established real-estate companies or in newspapers, are easy to miss. Finally, you may not ignore entire projects or neighborhoods because you do not think their rental units might meet HUD's quality standards or because you consider them too difficult to survey. The only units to be excluded from the sample are those built within the last 2 years, those whose tenants receive Federal assistance or other forms of aid and who do not know the full market rent, those owned by relatives, and seasonal units. 2.1.1. List SourcesTelephone Surveys Random digit dialing telephone surveys have been used for many years. By dialing random phone numbers within a geographic area, you can draw a representative sample of your area's households. All rental households would be reached in this way, except for those that do not have telephones. A relatively cheap way to obtain a random sample is to purchase a randomly-generated phone number list prepared by one of the companies that specialize in this type of work. These lists are far more inclusive than published phone books. The random lists can be pre-screened so that: (1) each telephone number is in your FMR area; (2)each number has been randomly generated; (3)numbers known to be commercial have been eliminated; and (4)each number is assured to be in service. The final sampling stage occurs during interviewing, when you make phone calls to determine whether the numbers are those of eligible rental households. The cost of purchasing such lists ranges from about $300 to $700 for 4,500 phone numbers, usually sufficient for a 150-unit response (all renters). The more expensive lists generally use more sophisticated methods for detecting business and nonworking numbers. Not all of these methods work in all areas, however, and the contract language provided in Attachment 1 specifies that the prospective sample provider must check whether its automated screening methods will work in your area before charging for their use. Sample providers that we know of are listed in Attachment 1, along with suggested contract wording. Apart from the work involved in drawing up a contract for a random list of telephone numbers there is no work to be done by the HA at this stage. The list is likely to be ready for use within one week of selecting a supplier. Your workload will become heavy during the interviewing phase, when you must make many phone calls within a short time to determine eligibility for the survey and interview the relatively few households that are eligible. 2.1.2. Phone Book Samples Generally Not Acceptable It is not acceptable to draw a sample from the phone book because many residents may not have their phone numbers listed, either because they moved in after the book was last published, or because they do not want their phone numbers listed. In most areas up to 30 percent of households do not have their phone numbers listed; in large metropolitan areas this proportion approaches 50 percent. However, where professionally-supplied random number lists are too expensive, it may be possible to use a sample that starts with the local phone book. The process involves randomly choosing numbers from the White Pages, omitting those that are obviously for businesses, and phoning those numbers plus one or two numbers that are created by substituting a random digit for the last digit of the listed number. This "Plus-1 Sampling" method may be a viable alternative in areas where telephone systems do not give automatic dialing intercepts to indicate that phone number called are out of service. It does have several disadvantages, including involving the HA in sample selection, which is somewhat technical, and may well not be any cheaper to use. HAs interested in using this method must get HUD approval in advance. 2.2. List SourcesMail and In-Person Surveys As noted earlier, the easiest way to obtain a fully representative sample throughout the FMR area may be with a telephone survey using a professionally compiled list of phone numbers. If this method is not used, HUD recommends that you consider the alternatives listed below. However, you should keep in mind that many surveys based on only one or two of the following sources cannot be used to adjust FMRs because they fail to represent the entire rent distribution. In addition, duplicate addresses must be eliminated from most address lists, which can be very time consuming. A sample usually uses a combination of the following sources. Samples based on only one of these sources are likely to be rejected. The only exception might be tax assessment and utility records, which are discussed first: Sources That Might Be Used Alone Tax assessor's or landlord registration records can be useful, as long as rental status is available for all units, regardless of the size of the project. In some areas, these records might provide a complete list of rental housing properties. But you should be aware of the following possible problems: Records of multi-unit projects can be tricky to use. The records must be checked carefully to ensure that all rental units within a multi-unit project have been listed. You must then expand the list so that each rental unit is listed separately before you draw the sample. For example, an apartment building with 10 rental units must be shown 10 times in your sample list. A tax assessor's list that does not reliably contain the number of rental units in each project is not usable, unless you can determine that information independently. Another problem may be with landlords who own several properties. The tax assessor's list must include all units in all of the landlord's properties. The tax assessor's list must contain all or most single-family rentals, including rented portions of owner-occupied homes; most assessors' lists do not. HUD headquarters staff is prepared to help you select a sample from such a list. Utility records might be available. While most electric and gas utility companies are privately owned and not likely to release their records, residential lists for a particular area might be available from water and sewer authorities and garbage companies. These lists may be divided into rented or owned properties. You must be careful that the list includes the entire FMR area, does not contain duplicate entries, and lists each rental unit separately (not just one listing for an entire project or landlord.) Emergency 911 systems might maintain lists of rental properties. If so, the list must cover the entire FMR area. You may have to merge lists from several 911 providers and eliminate duplicate entries. Sources That Must Not Be Used Alone Records of apartment owners' associations or realty companies can be useful but smaller projects and lower rent units, including rented single-family homes, are generally excluded from such lists. Newspaper classified ads can be useful, but many of the lower rent units are not advertised in this way. Community bulletin boards can be useful in getting information about lower rent units. Recently issued building permits can be useful, but such records cannot be used exclusively because units of all ages, except those built in the last 2 years, must be represented in the sample. Sources to Avoid A list of assisted rental units is not acceptable because the sample should be of the unassisted housing stock. (Interviews of renters receiving Section 8 certificates and vouchers are acceptable, but market rents must be obtained rather than the actual rents that tenants pay.) A sample that mainly represents the rental stock in the urban sections of an FMR area is unacceptable. The FMR is the same throughout a county or metropolitan area (subject to local exceptions), and the sample must represent the entire areaurban and rural. An exception may be made for cases where the non-urban portion of the FMR area is relatively small, and where rents are similar in the urban and non-urban portions. A sample based solely on vacant units is unacceptable because a valid sample must include the entire housing stock. A sample based solely on a list of Section 8 "program comparables" is unacceptable. Units used for the rent-reasonableness test would typically have higher than average rents in areas where FMRs had previously been overstated. You must ensure that your survey includes a good representation of single-family homes or duplexes, smaller apartment projects, and mobile homes (if they form a sizeable portion of the rental inventory), along with larger apartment complexes. Furthermore, your survey must reasonably represent rental units according to the year they were built and represent units throughout the FMR area. If several sources are used, an essential final step is to eliminate duplicate listings. The best way to do this is to enter the addresses from all the lists into one database or spreadsheet, sort the entries by address, and eliminate any addresses that appear to be duplicates. This can be very time-consuming. 2.3. Multicounty Surveys Nonmetropolitan FMRs are established county-by-county, not for groups of counties. If your jurisdiction includes several counties, and you do not have the resources to survey each county separately, HUD may approve a multicounty survey whose results would be applied to the individual counties in your jurisdiction. It may also be to the advantage of several single-county HAs to combine their resources on a multicounty survey. Counties must be chosen carefully to avoid having rents in high growth counties be washed out by low growth ones, and counties should generally be contiguous. Before doing a multicounty survey, you should read Section 2.4, below. Multicounty surveys require prior HUD approval; you must contact your HUD field office economist for specific guidance before proceeding. 2.4. Adjustment for State-Minimum Bonus Beginning in 1996 HUD has established a minimum level of FMRs based on Census data for all of the nonmetropolitan counties in each state; FMRs for nonmetropolitan counties may not fall below these state minimum levels. Therefore, in reviewing your survey results, HUD will compare the actual Census-based FMR with the state minimum FMR before deciding precisely what increase to apply to the proposed FMR. Thus, individual counties within a grouped survey cluster will receive different percentage increases if the state minimum adjustment had been used in computing the proposed FMRs in some of the counties. In certain cases the state minimum will entirely supersede the survey results. The state minimum bonus applied in all years after 1996 can be calculated from the 1995 and 1996 FMRs and the normal update factor applied in that year to the area, as follows. (This example is for a nonmetropolitan county in HUD's Midwest Region.) $343 1995 FMR $385 1996 FMR, which includes the new state minimum bonus and the regional update 0.8% Update factor used for Midwest Region-Nonmetropolitan FMR areas in 1996  State Minimum Bonus = ((385)343) -1) - 0.8% = 12.2% - 0.8% = 11.4% For this area the FMR would have been $346 (343 x 1.008) without the state minimum bonus, and therefore a survey would have to show at least an 11.4% increase over that level (or at least $385) to overcome the effects of the state minimum bonus. If this county were included in a grouped survey that showed a 40th percentile gross rent that was 6.5 percent above the 40th percentile computed from the raw Census data for all counties in the group, no change in the FMR would be warranted (because the 11.4% state minimum bonus already in effect is greater than the difference indicated by the survey.) Other counties in the same survey group may have different state minimum bonuses, and hence the final results of a grouped survey will differ from one county to another. HAs are, therefore, strongly cautioned to check the extent of any state minimum bonus that might be in effect for the area(s) they wish to survey. They should consult with a HUD field economist or HUD headquarters before proceeding with their surveys. HUD headquarters staff will make the necessary calculations once the data are compiled. Checking for state minimum bonuses is necessary for both grouped surveys and surveys of individual areas. 3. Deciding How Large a Sample to Interview The goal of a survey is to obtain accurate responses from a sample of the "universe"all renters in a particular FMR area. A small, carefully chosen sample will represent the universe more accurately than would a large sample selected from just one portion of the universe. The size of the required sample is only weakly related to the size of the universe: the quality of the sample and the accuracy of the responses are far more important than the actual sample size. 3.1. All Renters or Recent Movers There are two survey options, explained below: All-renter survey: The easiest and least expensive option is to obtain a sample of all renters. HUD will then adjust these results with the recent-mover bonus obtained from HUD's annual RDD surveys of the nonmetropolitan portions of each of 10 HUD regions, or the recent-mover bonus implied by the 1990 Census, whichever is greater. This method should provide acceptable results for most nonmetropolitan areas. This method may be necessary for the smallest HAs, for whom there may be too few telephones from which to draw a sufficiently large sample of recent movers. It requires about one-half as many phone calls as a comparably sized recent-mover survey. However, if the rents charged to recent movers and rents paid by long-term tenants are substantially different in your locality, an all-renter survey may fail to adequately describe your rental market. B. Recent-mover survey: Alternately, you may limit your survey to recent moversthose moving in within the past 24 monthsin which case your survey results would be used without further adjustment. This method is recommended in areas where rents have changed rapidly, significantly, and recently, or if rent changes have been substantially different from those in the HUD region. A recent-mover survey is much more expensive than a comparably-sized all-renter survey, because of the increased number of contacts required to locate and interview recent movers. The following tables reflect HUD's sample size requirements for both types of survey. They allow the smallest HAs to present data with a lower degree of survey accuracy than the larger HAs, which should use the more expensive but more accurate RDD methodology. These sample size requirements are based on the number of Section 8 certificates and vouchers in the entire FMR area; not just those within the jurisdiction of one Housing Agency among several operating in the FMR area. Certificates and vouchers allocated by a State or regional Housing Agency to the FMR area must be included in the total for purposes of selecting the sample size. The same is true for mobility vouchers known to be present in the FMR area. The sample size requirements in the following table reflect HUDs decision this year to experiment with smaller sample sizes and somewhat lower survey precision for the areas with very small programs than in previous versions of this document. HAs are free to collect more than the minimum sample sizes shown here; however, if they do so they should submit all cases collected to HUD, as this would improve the surveys accuracy. In some cases an HA may have made a meticulous survey effort, including all required followup calls, but failed to produce the targeted number of responses. Before abandoning the survey, the HA should contact HUD for further guidance; smaller than required samples may be accepted in certain situations. In any case, HUD expects that the larger HAsthose with 500 or more Section 8 unitswill find professionally-conducted RDDs to be advantageous in terms of their accuracy and the greater likelihood that they will be accepted by HUD. EMBED Excel.Sheet.8 To account for nonresponses, which are inevitable even with aggressive followups, HUD recommends that you obtain the following sample sizes to ensure that you reach the specified numbers of completed interviews. 3.2. Effect of Sample Size on How Survey Results Are Analyzed Surveying a sample of rental units produces somewhat different results than surveying the universe of rental units. This difference is called "sampling error" and is common to all surveys. Stated simply, a sample of the size outlined in the lower end of the above table is expected to have at most about a 6.5% margin of error; that is, there is a 95 percent probability that the survey results will differ by no more than 6.5 percent from the results of a survey that included the entire universe of rental units. Therefore, if your survey results differ by less than 6.5 percent from the proposed FMRs, it is likely that they are "statistically the same" as the FMR. On the other hand, if your results differ by more than 6.5% from the proposed FMRs, then the survey results are considered "statistically different." (This discussion assumes that a valid, random sample has been drawn from the universe; a biased sample will produce biased results.) HUD will compare the survey results to its own data. If your survey appears to have been correctly executed, HUD is likely to accept your results. HUD reserves the right, however, to decide which data to use. 3.3. Bedroom Sizes to Survey Full-scale RDD surveys are restricted to 1 and 2 bedroom units. One of the compromises in this guide is that you may use 3 bedroom units as well, which reduces the survey's accuracy but can greatly reduce the number of calls required. One bedroom rents must be adjusted to two-bedroom equivalents, using the FMR relationships available from your HUD field office economist. If you also use 3 bedroom units in your survey, they must also be adjusted, using a 3-to-2 bedroom adjustment factor explained below.  If you will comment specifically about the FMRs of units other than those with two bedrooms, you may present data for those sizes. 4. Picking the Sample 4.1. List-Assisted Telephone Surveys A list-assisted telephone survey uses a sample compiled by a contractor. Once a contract has been signed, most suppliers will deliver a sample within 2 to 3 days. The contractor must divide the full sample into separate "waves" (or "replicates"), each containing 500 phone numbers. You must make at least four attempts to reach each number in Wave 1 before moving on to the numbers in Wave 2, and so on. This procedure is described below. 4.2. Mail and In-Person (Traditional) Surveys For traditional surveys, there are several ways to select random samples after you have acquired a complete, non-duplicated list of the rental housing universe. Numbering List You must number each item in this list consecutively. These code numbers will be used later to pick the sample and keep track of responses. Accounting for Nonresponse You should include extra addresses on the assumption that about 60 percent of the sample will be nonrespondents (for mailed or personal interview samples). Thus, for a target response of 200 households, you should randomly choose about 500 units for the sample and attempt to interview them, on the assumption that you will get about a 40-percent response rate after all followups have been completed. When interviewing, you must not drop "difficult" cases until you have tried to reach them several times; just choosing the "easy" cases or moving on to a neighboring apartment will probably give a biased sample and destroy the validity of your survey. Random Number Sampling You should assign a consecutive number to each rental unit in the list and look up numbers in a list of random numbers, which may be found in most statistics textbooks or generated by many computer programs. For example, if you wish to compile a sample of 500 units from a universe list of 4,000 units, you should choose any four columns from a list of random numbers, and select the first 500 cases in that list which are less than 4,000. For example, using one example of a random number table we decided, in advance, to choose the first 4 digits of column 6. Those numbers, and the units chosen for the survey, are: Picked Random for Number  Sample? 9164 8919 6480 1637 SAMPLE-1 . . . first case under 4,000 is picked for sample 9178 5349 3101 SAMPLE-2 2092 SAMPLE-3 1810 SAMPLE-4 5953 7993 6944 3349 SAMPLE-5 5226 1392 SAMPLE-6 1630 SAMPLE-7 1988 SAMPLE-8 0414 SAMPLE-9 . . . and so forth, until you have chosen 500 sample cases. Systematic Sampling Systematic sampling involves picking every n'th rental unit from the list after randomly selecting the first unit. The n is called the sampling frequency and can be determined by dividing the number of units in the universe list by the number of units in the sample, and rounding the result to the nearest whole number. For example, for a sample of 500 out of 4,000 units, you will need to choose every 8th unit (4000/500 = 8). Then you should follow these steps: (1)choose a random number between 1 and n, which in this case is 8 (one way is to count the number of "heads" you get after flipping a coin 8 times), (2)start with that random number, and (3)choose every n'th unit, which in this case is every eighth unit. Suppose the coin had landed "heads" three times in 8 flips, you would then choose the following underlined units: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 and so forth until you have picked 500 units. 5. Collecting Data 5.1. List-Assisted Telephone Surveys Questionnaire For a list-assisted telephone survey, you should use the questionnaire in Attachment 2A, with possible modifications described in Attachment 4. (These modifications relate to shared student housing, sublet rents, structure types, and vacation homes.) Staffing This survey will be conducted by phone. Professional interviewers who are available locally would be useful; however, the survey is simple enough that a nonprofessional should be able to handle it, though somewhat less efficiently. We recommend hiring temporary workers for this job, although HA staff can do this work if they are freed from other duties during the survey. One possible source of interviewers and supervisors is a local college; departments of statistics, economics, and sociology often are interested in exposing their students to real-world situations such as this. Two or three interviewers should work simultaneously, so that all work, including call-backs, can be completed within 2 weeks. They should do nothing but work on this survey during this time; they should not be burdened by other duties. Interviewers who can speak Spanish or other languages should be available, where applicable. One should be available whenever interviews are taking place. Interviewers can be trained in 4 to 6 hours. Interviewers and their manager should carefully review the questionnaire and practice reading it out loud until they are comfortable with the wording. They should conduct several "mock" interviews, in which one person plays the role of a respondent under varying circumstances (See Attachment 3). All must become familiar with the "Result Codes," which are explained below. You should note carefully the "skip and stop" pattern. For example, if the person called is not a renter, there is no point in continuing the call; just thank the respondent for his or her time and hang up. You must not "lead" the respondent by making statements that indicate how he or she should answer. For example, if asked why you are doing the survey, you must not say something like "we believe HUD's Fair Market Rents aren't high enough, and that's why we're doing the survey." This statement may seriously bias the answers, because you have suggested what answers you would like to hear. Data Collection You should conduct the first set of calls during normal business hours. Calling during these hours will enable you to reach many who stay at home during the day, and to screen out business numbers. The second through fourth calls must take place during evening and weekend hours. Failing to do so would bias the survey by underrepresenting working couples and single renters. These calls should be made on subsequent evenings unless the number is busy (if it's busy, try again in 10-20 minutes.) In addition to the questionnaire, each interviewer should have Attachment 3 handy, as well as the table of Results Codes, which is shown below. Using Sample Waves The contractor will deliver the sample of telephone numbers in several waves of 100 or 500 phone numbers each. You must attempt to call the phone numbers in each wave before moving on to the next wavethat is, you must make at least four attempts to call and interview each phone number in Wave 1 before going on to Wave 2, and so forth. The reason for interviewing in waves is to avoid gathering data mainly from the "easy" cases, people whose rents are probably different from the full distribution. It is important that you make at least four attempts to reach a respondent at each phone number on your list. Only then may you give up on a telephone number. Conducting the Interview; Result Codes You must date each attempt and write the Result code on the bottom of each questionnaire. If eligible for a call-back, try to note the name of the person who should be interviewed. Result codes are as follows: Result Code Meaning of Code Disposition of Questionnaire OK Completed interview Check for completeness & put in pile to analyze LB Language barrier Give to another interviewer, immediately RF Refusal/termination Give to supervisor to try again NA No answer Try again another day BS Busy Try again today CB "Call back some other time" Try again another day IN Ineligible for survey Keep for records NH Not household/business Keep for records NW Nonworking/disconnected Keep for records OT Other Keep for records When someone answers the phone, you must read the questionnaire exactly as it is written. Diverging from the wording of the questionnaire or injecting your opinions into the interview may produce inaccurate results. Successful interviews should be reviewed each day for completeness. For example, a respondent who pays separately for heating must also have stated what fuel was used for heating. If anything is missing, it is better to phone for the missing information on the same day than to leave it for another day. See Attachment 3 for suggestions about handling difficult situations, such as those with reluctant or hostile interviewees, and Attachment 4 for some question-by-question details. 5.2. Mail and In-Person (Traditional) Surveys of Individual Rental Units Questionnaire For this type of survey, you should use the questionnaire in Attachment 2B, possibly modified for your area, following the suggestions in Attachment 4. (These modifications relate to shared student housing, sublet rents, structure types, and vacation homes.) This questionnaire is basically identical to the telephone survey questionnaire, except that it asks whether there is a telephone in the unit. This question is intended to screen out units that might well be substandard, and to make the mail survey as comparable as possible to the telephone survey; units without telephones should not be used to compute FMRs. See Attachment 4 for some question-by-question details and suggested questionnaire modifications. Staffing While data may be collected through any feasible method, HUD recommends mail-out, mail-back as the primary one because it is least likely to result in biased results. Thus there is little need to hire and train interviewers until the final phase of the study, when phone calls may be used with sample residents who have not responded to the initial mailing and a reminder. At least one staff member should be responsible for keeping track of questionnaires mailed and returned. That person is also responsible for checking responses for completeness, following up on those that are incomplete, and coding the numbers for analysis. Data Collection We recommend that the primary method for data collection be by mailing the questionnaire in Attachment 2B and possibly a cover letter to the sample person. The cover letter must not attempt to "lead" respondents by, for example, encouraging those paying high rents to respond to the survey. For example, the cover letter must not state something like "We're asking your help in proving that HUD's Fair Market Rents are too low in our county." We suggest that you use (or paraphrase) the introductory statement used in the questionnaire in Attachment 2B. The mailing should include a stamped, self-addressed return envelope or a business reply envelope. You must make at least two followup attempts to reach nonrespondents until you attain a 40-percent response rate from your original sample. Phone calls to nonrespondentsif the phone number is availableor personal visits are acceptable as long as the interviewers ask only what is on the questionnairethat is, without making extraneous statements or injecting opinions that might bias the responses. Contacting realtors or property managers is acceptable as long as the rents they give are the actual rents received from the unit(s) that are in the sample, not just for similar units that are vacant. Interviewing neighbors of the sampled households is not acceptable. HUD suggests that you review Attachment 3 for advice on handling problems with reluctant interviewees. Attachment 4 contains suggestions about handling specific items in the questionnaire and dealing with special situations in your housing market. Scheduling Sample selection is likely to be time consuming. You can expect to spend at least 2 weeks assembling a list of rental properties, typing them into a spreadsheet, sorting them, eliminating duplicate entries, assigning sequence numbers, and selecting the sample. You should send a followup mailing to nonrespondents two weeks after the initial mailing. This timing gives the initial group of respondents a chance to return their questionnaires before the second mailing is sent, thereby minimizing the number of duplicate responses. It also maintains a momentum, with the second mailing perhaps convincing nonrespondents that you are serious about the survey. One week after the second mailing, you should begin to make phone calls or visit nonrespondents. This phase is likely to take 2 weeks and may be expensive if it involves a great deal of travel. You should be careful not to send out duplicate mailings; you must carefully record which responses you have received. 5.3. Traditional Surveys of Property Owners In cases where there exists a complete, unduplicated list of property owners (including a large proportion of the lower-rent units in the FMR area), you may consider doing a traditional survey of property owners, using the questionnaire in Attachment 2C. The list must include all properties owned by each owner, with property addresses of each rental unit. It must also represent all types of units, from low to high rent, throughout the FMR areas. This method is intended to be used only in the rare cases where such lists do, in fact, exist. Picking the Sample First, decide on the sampling interval, as described above. Then choose each nth unit as follows: One unit chosen from multi-unit structure.Get information on the unit that was most recently rented out, not on currently-vacant units. One unit chosen from each of several properties under one owner.Be careful to distinguish between the different properties; use one survey sheet for each unit. Several units within one property.ask for information on the units most recently rented out, not those that are currently vacant. This may be confusing, and the author would be happy to help you pick the sample. Interviewing Interviewing for this sort of survey is very similar to the telephone surveys (Section 5.1). You should prepare one copy of the questionnaire for each rental unit in the sample, grouping sheets for properties that belong to the same owner. Normally, surveys of property owners can be done during business hours. However, you must be prepared for some evening and weekend calling, especially for the smaller property owners whose responses are critical to the success of your survey. You must make up to 4 attempts to obtain complete information for each property in the sample, and must not accept a substitute property if the one in the sample cannot be used for the survey. 6. Coding the DataAll Surveys  For each completed interview, you should first add all of the utility amounts to the questionnaire, and then enter the data into a machine-readable spreadsheet. Spreadsheet and data management programs are available for all types of microcomputers. We do not recommend entering the data using a word-processing program, because word-processed documents cannot easily be sorted or mathematically manipulated. Incomplete interviews must be retained and about 150 of them forwarded to HUD along with your submission. HUD has prepared a spreadsheet, in Lotus format, which you may use to enter your data. It contains all of the formulas you will need to enter a complete record for each of your survey respondents. It is available from your HUD field economist or via Internet from the author. The spreadsheet is available in two forms: FMRDATA1.WK1 Includes built-in consistency checks that warn you if some data have been entered inconsistently. For example, if you checked that the tenant pays for heating, there must be an entry for the utility used and its cost. The problem with this spreadsheet is that it is too large for some older computers to use. FMRDATA2.WK1 Identical to the first one except that the consistency checks are omitted. If you use this spreadsheet you must verify consistency manually.

General Processing Steps 1. Verify that the interview is for an eligible unit. In particular, is it in the correct county? (This is important if you have telephone exchanges that cross county boundaries.) 2. Using Section 8 utility allowance, enter the utility dollar amounts on the questionnaire for each utility the respondent pays for separately. You must use the utility allowance for the specific number of bedrooms in the unit (0 through 5), as specified in the Section 8 utility allowance schedule. If there is no Section 8 allowance for a particular utility, you should make an estimate and describe how you made it; HUD Headquarters staff can help you make such estimates. This is most often applicable to air conditioning, which some Section 8 utility allowance schedules omit as a separate item and do not include under the category "Other Electric Lighting, Refrigeration, Etc." You should use the methods described in the HUD utility allowance schedule instructions, or call your local electric company. Be careful with utility allowances: many early surveys had incorrect utility amounts. 3. Start Lotus or spreadsheet program, and retrieve either file FMRDATA1.WK1 (which contains many consistency checks but is quite large) or FMRDATA2.WK1 (no consistency checks, but small enough to be used on most computers.) 4. Enter "global" data for area: area name, survey month and year, and 0 through 5 bedroom FMRs. 5. Enter data for each completed survey, and verify everything you've entered. 6. Save file. 7. Sort file by 2-bedroom equivalent gross rent [RENTG]. 8. Multiply the number of surveys completed by 0.40. Count up from the bottom of the distribution to this case number; the gross rent for this unit is the 40th percentile gross rent. For example: If you have obtained responses from 152 recent-mover cases, the 40th percentile is the rent obtained for the 61st case (152 x .40 = 60.8). 6.2.

Checking That Responses Are RepresentativeAll Surveys Before accepting the results of your survey, HUD must be assured that the survey reasonably represents the housing stock of your FMR area. You are not required to conduct this analysis, but you may do so if you wish. If you want to do the analysis, you may wish to enlist the help of a local university or the Census State Data Center. In its review HUD will check to ensure that the housing units from which you received usable responses are reasonably representative of the entire housing stock of your FMR area. HUD will compare your results with the best available data for your entire area. The base data will generally be the 1990 Census, except in those cases where you can present valid data showing substantial changes since 1990. Note that the Census figures must be for the entire FMR area; in most cases, an entire county or entire MSA. Be sure to use the "renter occupied" portion of the Census table. Much of the Census data you need are not easily available in regular Census printed reports. Alternative ways of obtaining the data include: Calling your Census State Data Center (call 301B763B1580 for the phone number of your center); using the STFB3C file on CD-ROM; or calling your HUD field economist. 7.1. Size of the Universe and Response Sample  Number of bedrooms (Renter occupied) Number in Census  Number in Sample Total Recent movers One-bedroom units   Two-bedroom units   (Others, as applicable)  Total  7.2. Gross Rent Distribution This is the most critical comparison that HUD will make in judging the adequacy of your survey. If it does not adequately represent the major parts of the Census rent distribution, it will be rejected. HUD will look especially for evidence that your survey failed to represent the lower end of the rental distribution; even in highly inflationary situations some units rent for substantially below "average" levels. In most cases a poor match between the Census data and your results will be evidence of a nonrepresentative sample or some other source of bias. You may adjust the Census rent intervals to approximate the rent inflation that you think has occurred from 1990 to when you conducted your survey. You may summarize the distribution in $100 intervals.

Preparing Submission for HUD 8.1. Required Items Your submission must include all of the following: The rental unit size (number of bedrooms) for which you are commenting. The number of certificates and vouchers allocated to the entire FMR area. To the extent that you know it, you must include mobility or portable vouchers that come from other jurisdictions, and certificates and vouchers from multi-area housing agencies, such as state housing agencies. How you obtained the universe list, including how you eliminated duplicate entries if you used the traditional approach. How you selected the sample. How you collected the data, including what you did to minimize nonresponse. A copy of your questionnaire and any cover letter or publicity materials you used. Tables comparing the survey respondents to the entire universe (these may be prepared with the help of your HUD field economist): Sample and universe sizes Gross rent distribution Structure type Year built A computerized or written list of individual survey results. We prefer that you provide a computerized spreadsheet, in both printed and floppy disk form. If you completed more than the minimum required number of cases, you should submit all of them to HUD. The 40th percentile gross rent from your survey. A copy of the HUD-approved Section 8 utility allowance schedule that you used. If you modified the utility allowance in any way (for example, by adding an air conditioning allowance), you must state how you obtained the amount. Copies of all "successful" survey sheets, plus about 150 sheets for which you were not able to obtain responses. Copies of the telephone list sheets, if you entered result codes on them rather than on the questionnaires. 8.2. Optional Items You may also include any of the following, which will be considered but are not sufficient in themselves: Your reasons for commenting. Descriptions of your housing market. Special factors that HUD should consider, such as the effects of recent natural disasters. Attachment 1: Telephone Sample Sources and Suggested Contract Language Scientifically chosen telephone samples are available from several sources. The following lists the sources known to HUD, as well as a set of technical specifications that HUD feels the sample should meet. Other specifications are possible, but all divergence from these specifications may make the sample less efficient (because you will reach a smaller proportion of eligible renters), or may bias the sample. In general, the cheaper samples are less likely to reach eligible households than the more expensive ones: You may find that the extra interviewing costs more than make up for the extra up-front costs of better-screened samples. In addition your interviewers will be more likely to become discouraged by the number of calls they must make before reaching an eligible respondent. The attached contract language contains some highly technical terms; any supplier of telephone samples who does not understand these terms should be discouraged from bidding on your project.

For this we need a scientifically generated random list of telephone numbers, drawn according to the following specifications. Please advise us of your charges to draw and deliver the sample to us. If you must diverge from any of these specifications, you must tell us in advance and prepare a written justification for us to forward to the Department of Housing and Urban Development, which will be judging the validity of our survey. We look forward to your reply. Our phone number is __________________. If you have questions, you should contact _______________________________________________. Universe/Coverage The sample must include all exchanges currently in use within the following county: _______________________________. Exchanges that are more than 25 percent in this county must be included in the sample; you must identify exchanges that are not entirely contained in the target county. Density All telephone exchanges with 3 or more listed numbers per 100-block must be eligible for the sample. Recency The data base from which the sample is drawn must have been updated within 6 months of its delivery to us. Sampling method The sample must be drawn in such a way as to assure equal probability of selection ("epsem"). PPS or systematic samples will not be accepted, unless cleared in advance by HUD. Sample Waves The sample must be drawn in waves or replicates of 500 phone numbers each, without replacement; the same number must not appear in more than 1 replicate. Post-sample screen-1 All sampled numbers known to be in business or commercial use must be purged. This may be done by referring to published directories. You must state whether phone numbers that are in both residential and commercial directories have been retained in your sample.

It is also important that you not "lead" the respondent by making statements that indicate how he or she should answer. For example, when asked why you are doing the survey, you must not say something like "we believe HUD's Fair Market Rents aren't high enough . . ." This statement may seriously bias the answers and possibly invalidate the survey. Here are some suggestions for conducting a survey and dealing with various problems. They are aimed primarily at telephone surveys; however, you may have to deal with similar problems when conducting a mail survey. The following are general suggestions for conducting a survey: Read the introduction verbatim and be certain to pronounce the words clearly. Practice each introduction until your presentation is confident and sincere. Don't rush or pause. Rushing through an introduction gives the impression that you lack confidence and may lead the listener to misunderstand what you have said. However: Do not pause before asking the first question following the introduction. A pause will give the impression that you are waiting for approval or disapproval, or for questions from the respondent. If faced with refusal, try asking immediately about rental status (Question 2): "Would you please just answer one question: Are you renting your property or do you own it?" If you can obtain an answer to this question, you will have screened out a large number of people whom you don't need to follow up. Dealing With Specific Questions "I need more information about the study before I'll answer any questions." You might respond by saying: "The study is being conducted by ______________ to get information on the cost of rental housing in our area. All information you give will be kept absolutely confidential and your participation is voluntary. Why don't we start the interview and you'll see what the questions are like." NOW ASK THE FIRST QUESTION. "How did you get my unlisted number?" You might respond with: "All numbers were chosen randomly from among possible numbers in your telephone exchange. We didnt know it was your number." "How do I know the survey is legitimate?" You might repeat appropriate parts of the introduction. If necessary, explain that the survey is an important effort by the to learn more about the cost of rental housing in their area. As a last resort, say that the Project Director may be called to verify the legitimacy of the survey and obtain additional information. Provide a telephone number to the respondent. "Who's in charge of this survey?" You might respond with: "The survey is sponsored by _____________. The Project Director is ____________. "Who is your supervisor?" You should give the name of your immediate supervisor without hesitation. Call your supervisor to the phone if the respondent asks to speak to him or her. "Who else have you talked to in my area?" You might say, "I only have telephone numbers so I don't know who else we may have contacted." "How do I know that you are really an interviewer for this survey?" You should tell the respondent that your position can be verified by calling the Project Director and provide the respondent with a telephone number. "What's this survey about?" You might answer, "Were interviewing people at random to help the [HA] learn more about the costs of rental housing in our area." "I don't want to buy anything!" You might say, "I'm not trying to sell anything. This is an important survey sponsored by ______________________." "Why interview me?" You might say, "Scientific procedures were used to select a sample of [telephone numbers/households] in our community. Your [number/household] was chosen randomly and represents many other [numbers/households]. It's important that you help with the survey because we can't replace you with someone else." [Use "number" for telephone surveys, "household" for traditional, mailed surveys.] "I'm too busy now." You might respond with: "Then let's make an appointment for another time. We can call tomorrow morning, afternoon, or evening." "Call me back next week." Such statements are usually a "put-off" tactic and will be continued when you call back. Try to retain control of the situation by setting an appointment. After setting an appointment, you might want to say something like "Okay. I've made an appointment for you at 8:00 next Tuesday evening. I look forward to talking with you then." Then make sure you or someone else actually makes the call. "I just don't have time for your survey." You might say, "I'll move through the interview as quickly as I can to save you time. Let me start and you tell me if I'm going too fast." Immediately ask the first question and continue at a brisk pace. [The interview should take no more than 4 or 5 minutes, even if you've reached an eligible household, far less if it's not eligible.] "I'm not going to answer a lot of questions over the phone!" You might reply with: "Most people find the questions interesting. Let me start and you can see what they are like." "I think this whole business is stupid. The government has better things to do with tax dollars . . ." Occasionally an argumentative respondent is encountered. In spite of their response, they tend to be people who really are interested in the study but want to tell what they feel before they consent to be interviewed. Bear with them and hear them out! As long as they keep talking, they have not refused. Do not argue; instead, make short, neutral comments to let them know you are listening. When they have finished, say: "Your opinions are very interesting, and your answers will be important for the survey. Let's start now." THEN ASK THE FIRST QUESTION. When answering questions or overcoming objections, respond positively to concerns that they voice and do not argue with respondents or alienate them. Listen to their questions carefully and attempt to answer them briefly. Do not provide more detail than is required because additional details might suggest more questions or raise new concerns. Also do not hesitate to tell the interviewee that you cannot answer a particular question; promise that you will get an answer to that question and arrange to call back with the information. Of course, harassing or unduly pressuring a respondent is improper. However, you should realize that the participation of all households listed in the sample is important to the study and refusals must not be accepted without reasonable attempts to convince the nonrespondents to participate. General suggestions that supplement the more specific examples already provided for dealing with potential nonrespondents include: Never take a comment or action of a respondent personally; he or she does not know you; the respondent is reacting negatively for reasons beyond your control. Many factors may result in a refusal at the time of your initial contact that may not be a problem at another time (e.g., the person may have been in the shower, just awakened from a nap, just leaving the house, not feeling well, arguing with another person, or may have just received a call from an aggressive sales person). A call at another time may find the person to be more receptive. Attempt to start an interview with a reluctant person by moving into the first question as soon as possible. Try to keep a reluctant person talking by making brief, positive, neutral statements in response to his or her comments. When contacting someone who has refused to be interviewed, you should never directly refer to the previous refusal, but start with something like "When we spoke the other day you were too busy to help us." Attachment 4: Question-by-Question Instructions; Optional Questionnaire Modifications "STOP" If a question is answered in such a way that the word "STOP" is appropriate, there is no need to continue with the interview. Simply thank the respondent with the wording suggested in the box at the bottom, and hang up. Introduction If you meet strong resistance to answering any questions, try to get the unit's rental status: "Please just answer one questionare you renting your home?" If you can get this answered you will be able to screen out many non-eligible numbers. Q.1 (single family/group quarters/business) Group quarters (dormitory, hospital room, convalescent home, group home with meals included in the rent, barracks, mobile telephones) are excluded from the survey. A home that is also used as a business is eligible for the survey. Shared student housing is acceptable if (1) you obtain the total rent paid for the unit rather than what the respondent pays, and (2)the unit is not currently being sublet. In areas with many such housing units, you might want to move the optional Question 22 (about subletting) toward the beginning of the questionnaire. Q. 2 (own/rent) "Own" means owning or buying the property; it does not mean "owning outright." Q. 3 (bedrooms) This is the number of rooms in the rental unit used primarily as bedrooms or that could be used as bedrooms. One useful probe is: "How many bedrooms would your residence be advertised as having if it were for rent? Please include rooms that are meant to be bedrooms even though they are not used as bedrooms now, such as bedrooms converted to dens, storage areas, and so forth." In a shared-housing situation, include all bedrooms in the unit, not just those used by the respondent. Q. 5 (housing subsidy) We are interested in the rents paid by tenants receiving some form of rental subsidy, provided they know the full market (i.e., unsubsidized) rent. This may be particularly difficult for FmHA-subsidized units. You will have to probe carefully, and give up on respondents who really can't estimate what the rent would be without the subsidy. Q. 8 (owned by relative) Units owned by relatives should not be surveyed because tenants often do not pay the full market rent. Q. 10 (monthly rent) In the case of shared housing be sure to get the rent for the entire rental unit, not just what each tenant pays separately. If the unit is sublet (Question 22), be careful to get the rent paid by the primary renter, not the subletters. In the case of subsidized housing, be sure to get the total rent, not just what the tenant pays. Q. 13b (air conditioning) If a substantial proportion of responses report having air conditioning, but the Section 8 utility schedule does not contain an allowance for it, you should estimate one. Most local electric utility companies should be able to give you some approximate figure by type and size of unit. Before creating your own air conditioning estimate you must make sure that the schedule does not already include air conditioning as part of the cost of electricity included in the category "Other Electric Lighting, Refrigeration, Etc." You may also use the methods prescribed for updating Section 8 utility allowances. You must tell us what allowance you used, and how you obtained it. Q. 19 (structure type) Certain Section 8 utility allowances use different categories than what is in our suggested questionnaire. If that is the case, you should modify this question accordingly. There is no nationwide definition of "townhouse," "rowhouse," and "duplex." We therefore simply ask whether the unit is "single family detached," and treat all types of "attached" units as "apartments." Q. 20 (location; phone survey only) Telephone exchanges can cross county boundaries. This question verifies that the unit is in the county being surveyed. Q. 21 (usual residence; optional question) Vacation homes and other forms of temporary housing should be screened out of the survey, where applicable. If your area has a large numbers of such units, you should move this question closer to the beginning of the questionnaire. If the respondent is paying rent by the week rather than by the month, you should probe for whether this is a vacation home. Q. 22 (subletting; optional question) If you encounter a sublet situation you must be very careful to obtain the rent that the primary tenant pays. If you cannot do so, you should not use the unit. Q. 23 (phone in unit; mail survey only) Because many units without their own telephone are not likely to meet HUD Housing Quality Standards, we include this question in the mail survey to approximate the sample that we would get from a telephone survey. The telephone must be in the unit, not outside or down the hall. Units without telephones are excluded from the FMR computation. Attachment 5: Changes From Previous Versions of This Guide This section is intended for those have who read any of the previous versions of this Guide. Substantive changes contained in this version include the following: General Requirements Required responses: The number of usable responses is based on the number of Section 8 certificates and vouchers rather than the number of rental units. Sample sizes required for areas with the smallest programs have been reduced substantially, reflecting HUDs decision to experiment with smaller sample sizes and a greater degree of imprecision than in the larger areas, for which professional surveys of 200 cases are required. In cases where our methodology results in fewer than the expected number of respondents, the HA should contact us for a possible waiver of the required sample size, rather than giving up on the survey. In cases where the HA obtains more than the minimum required number of responses, it should submit all of them to HUD. Surveys of property owners: If a complete, unduplicated, unbiased list of property owners is available, Section 5.3 describes the sampling and interviewing process using the questionnaire in attachment 2C. State-minimum bonus: All survey results are subject to adjustment for any state minimum bonus that might be in effect. Utility costs: We emphasize how important it is to enter the correct utility amounts. Air conditioning costs may have to be estimated for HAs whose utility allowances do not include air conditioning. Utility amounts should be written on the questionnaires before entering data into the spreadsheet. The utility amounts should be for 1, 2, or 3 bedroom units, as appropriate. Questionnaire Cover letter: We have strengthened our warning about "leading" potential respondents. Question 1: The wording has been changed to better screen out group quarters. Question 8 (new): A rental unit owned by a relative is not eligible for the survey. Question 10: We emphasize the need to get the total, usual rent of the unit. This is difficult in sublet units or shared housing. Question 13: HAs whose Section 8 rental allowance schedules do not include air conditioning should estimate how much air conditioning would cost, and add it to the unit's utility expenditures. Question 19: The HA should adjust the unit types according to their classification in the HA's Section 8 utility allowance schedule. Question 21 (new): Seasonal or vacation rentals are not eligible for the survey. Question order: Areas where seasonal or sublet units are common should consider moving related questions to the front of the questionnaire, for maximum efficiency in screening out ineligibles. Coding and Analysis Spreadsheet: The utility amounts (for 1, 2, or 3 bedroom units, as appropriate) are added to contract rent before being converted to 2-bedroom equivalent. Telephone Sampling Sample recency: The telephone sample must have been updated within the past 6 months. Cross-county exchanges: Telephone exchanges that are 25 percent (not 50) within the county of interest must be included. Post-sample screening: Post-sample machine screening should be done only in areas where the telephone equipment permits. This assures HAs that they are not paying for a procedure that wouldn't work in their area. Further Comments Please direct comments to: Lynn Rodgers or David E.

Linda B. Piekarski, "Choosing Between Directory Listed and Random Digit Sampling in Light of New Demographic Findings," Fairfield, Connecticut: Survey Sampling, Inc., paper presented to the 1989 AAPOR Conference.  Increase factors for all HUD regions in 1996 were as follows: Non- Non- HUD Region Metro metro HUD Region Metro metro New England 0.7% 1.0% Southwest 2.1% 2.9% New York/New Jersey 3.0 1.4 Great Plains 2.7 0.9 Mid-Atlantic 3.1 2.8 Rocky Mountains 7.1 1.9 Southeast/Caribbean 3.3 1.5 Pacific/Hawaii 2.2 2.8 Midwest 2.3 0.8 Northwest/Alaska 4.5 2.8 State minimum bonuses are also available from the author or on HUDs web site: http://www.huduser/org/publications/publicassist/ assisted/fmrsurvey.html.  For the nonmetropolitan portions of each HUD Region, the recent-mover bonuses for 1997-98 are: 1: 5.0% 2: 6.2% 3: 9.4% 4: 7.9% 5: 3.6% 6: 7.0% 7: 1.6% 8: 5.6% 9: 5.5% 10: 2.2%  Three bedroom FMRs reflect an 8.7% bonus intended to make 3 bedroom units easier to rent under the Section 8 program. This bonus must be removed before computing the ratio. Thus, the ratio used to convert 3 bedroom survey rents to their 2 bedroom equivalent is: (FMR2BR)/ (FMR3BR/1.087). This formula simplifies to: FMR2BR * 1.087 / FMR3BR.  Random number tables are contained in almost all statistical textbooks. They can also be generated by many spreadsheet programs; for example, in Lotus or Quattro, to obtain a series of random numbers between 1 and 4,000, you would use the function @RAND*4000+1 (formatted as Fixed, 0 decimal places), duplicated on 4,000 lines.  You may instead record these codes and dates on the telephone number lists supplied by the sample provider.  Thus, you may not simply increase the size of the initial mailing in the hope of getting 200 usable responses in the first round. The initial responses may well not accurately represent the entire rent distribution; hence the need for at least two followups of nonrespondents, no matter how successful the initial mailing may have been.  Contact your HUD Field Office Economist for help with these final phases of the study. Call the Economic and Market Analysis Division at HUD: (202) 708B0577 to find your Field Office Economist's name and phone number.  These are used by the spreadsheet to compute the 2 bedroom equivalent gross rents, using the following formula: @IF(BEDROOMS.EQ.1, RENTGX*factor12, @IF(BEDROOMS.EQ.3, RENTGX*factor32, RENTGX)), where factor12 is the 1-to-2 bedroom rent ratio based on the 1 and 2 bedroom proposed FMRs, and factor32 is the 3-to-2 bedroom ratio, which is computed similarly except for having to remove an 8.7% "bonus" included in the 3 bedroom FMRs. Larger units use a 7.8% bonus, and FMRs for 5 and 6 bedroom units are 1.15 and 1.30 times the published 4 bedroom FMR, respectively; with the same bonus. For example: EMBED Excel.Sheet.8 factor12 = FMR2BR / FMR1BR = 420/549 = 1.31 factor32 = FMR2BR * 1.087 / FMR3BR = 549 * 1.087 / 749 = 0.80  Optionally, you may leave the file on the floppy disk. This will greatly slow down the processing speed. If you do this, you must first make a backup copy of the file and keep it on a separate disk for security purposes.  If you get a message such as "Out of Memory," your computer cannot handle such a large file. In this case, you should use FMRDATA2.WK1, which is the same except for the lack of error-checking capabilities.  In the "ID" column, telephone numbers containing a zero after the dash must begin with an apostrophe. For example, you must enter '708-0590, whereas 708-1590 can be entered without leading apostrophe.  If you get a message indicating that the spreadsheet is "protected," you should turn off the cell-protection feature: /Worksheet Global Protection Disable, and then sort it.

However, not all phone systems have the required equipment for automated screening for nonworking status to work. This situation is especially common in rural areas. For this reason, a telephone sample provider that proposes to use automated screening must first ascertain whether this method will be effective before using and charging you for it.
