In a somewhat unusual move, the FHA is insuring mortgages for upscale luxury apartment buildings in Manhattan. New buyers are able to buy in these relatively expensive apartment buildings with as little as a 3.5% down. The reasons cited for needing this aid is the ever vague "market conditions". The president of the National Condo Advisers Board says "I can't say it's been magical, but it's allowed developers to close on apartments they otherwise might not have been able to in the current marketplace". This might not be the most popular move, as it's bound to come off as helping those who probably don't need FHA aid.
