(1) The advance payments are necessary to meet the purposes of the housing program.
(2) The advance payments are necessary for the feasibility of the assisted housing.
(3) The use of the advanced funds is adequately regulated by contract or budgetary controls so that the opportunity to accrue interest on the funds is not unnecessarily reduced.
