                       TITLE 12--BANKS AND BANKING
 
                      CHAPTER 13--NATIONAL HOUSING
 
Sec. 1701l. Limitation on interest rates of insured mortgages; 
        terms of sales
        
    It is the intent of Congress that no sale of a dwelling on which a 
mortgage is insured under the National Housing Act, as amended [12 
U.S.C. 1701 et seq.], shall be financed, while such mortgage is so 
insured, at an interest rate higher than that prescribed by the 
Secretary of Housing and Urban Development. It is the further intent of 
Congress that no such sale shall be made, while such mortgage is so 
insured, on terms less favorable to the purchaser as to amortization, 
retirement, foreclosure, or forfeiture than those contained in such 
mortgage.
