The HUD Allowables 2026 is the complete FHA property preservation fee schedule extracted from Appendix 7.0 of HUD Handbook 4000.1 as updated through November 2025 and current for 2026 operations. This document covers the full spectrum of reimbursable allowances governing every category of field service work performed on FHA-insured properties — inspections, securing, lock changes, glazing, doors, debris removal, boarding, utilities, and the complete state-by-state winterization schedule and regional grass cut schedule. For field service technicians, inspectors, and contractors working FHA inventory through any national or regional order mill, this is the ceiling the servicer is bound by in their agreement with HUD. The gap between what this document authorizes and what lands in your pocket is not a negotiating position — it is a documented margin. Every contractor working FHA paper should have this document and know every number in it.
