Veterans' Homeless Pilot Project Amendments of 1991 - Authorizes the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to conduct and report to the Congress on a pilot project using real property acquired by the Department of Veterans Affairs through foreclosures of home loans guaranteed by the Department to provide transitional housing for homeless veterans. Directs the Secretary to select properties that have no significant likelihood of being sold for a price sufficient to reduce the liability of the Department or the veteran who had defaulted on the loan guaranteed by the Department.
Authorizes the Secretary to maintain, repair, and improve any property used in the pilot program, pay utilities, and purchase household furnishings using funds from appropriations for veterans' readjustment benefits. Requires major structural repairs, alterations, or improvements to be paid from the appropriate revolving fund (either the Loan Guaranty Revolving Fund or the Guaranty and Indemnity Fund). Authorizes the Secretary to charge rent to occupants of such housing. Exempts property used for the pilot project from State and local taxation.
Authorizes the Secretary to furnish information, counseling, and guidance regarding benefits and opportunities to veterans participating in the pilot project.
