Understand REAC Inspector's Responsibilities to Ensure Efficient Inspection

HUD's Real Estate Assessment Center (REAC) conducts approximately 20,000 physical inspections of sites each year to ensure that residents are living in assisted housing units that are “decent, safe, sanitary, and in good repair.” During an investigation, REAC inspectors will look at specific areas of the site for any health or safety hazards. Problems that are uncovered can cost you points on your inspection score. If enough points are deducted, there could be serious repercussions for your site.
