The Secretary must annually adjust specified dollar amounts beginning July 1, 2025, using a multifamily-housing construction price index or an alternative indicator if that index is unavailable. The Secretary must publish the adjustments, rounded down to the next dollar, in the Federal Register.
(a) Method of indexing. The dollar amounts in sections 1713(c)(3)(A), 1715e(b)(2)(A), 1715k(d)(3)(B)(iii)(I), 1715l(d)(3)(ii)(I), 1715l(d)(4)(ii)(I), 1715v(c)(2)(A), and 1715y(e)(3)(A) are collectively called the “Dollar Amounts.” The Secretary must adjust them every year beginning July 1, 2025. The Secretary must calculate each adjustment using the percentage change from March of the previous year to March of the adjustment year in the Price Deflator Index of Multifamily Residential Units Under Construction released by the Bureau* of the Census. If that index is unavailable or unpublished, the Secretary may use another indicator after publishing information about it in the Federal Register for public comment.
(b) Publication. (1) The Secretary must publish every adjustment to the Dollar Amounts in the Federal Register. (2) Each adjusted dollar amount must be rounded down to the next lower dollar.
The dollar amounts set forth in—

section 1715y(e)(3)(A) of this title;
(collectively hereinafter referred to as the “Dollar Amounts”) shall be adjusted annually, commencing on July 1, 2025. The adjustment of the Dollar Amounts shall be calculated by the Secretary using the percentage change in the Price Deflator Index of Multifamily Residential Units Under Construction released by the Bureau* of the Census from March of the previous year to March of the year in which the adjustment is made, or by the Secretary using an alternative indicator after publishing information about such alternative indicator in the Federal Register for public comment if the Price Deflator Index of Multifamily Residential Units Under Construction is not available or published.
The Secretary shall publish in the Federal Register any adjustments made to the Dollar Amounts.
The dollar amount of any adjustment described in paragraph (1) shall be rounded to the next lower dollar.
