What a failing score sets in motion

HUD refers a failing HUD-assisted property for enforcement: the owner surveys what the inspection found, corrects it, and documents both back to HUD. Inspections speed up too — scoring below 80 already means a roughly annual cycle. A failing score does not by itself close a building, end its subsidy, or mean anyone has to move; most failing properties are re-inspected and recover. More on failing scores.

If you live here: poor maintenance and health-or-safety problems in a HUD-assisted building can go to HUD’s Multifamily Housing Complaint Line, 1-800-685-8470, and this building’s published score is useful context in any complaint. A voucher unit’s own inspection is a separate system — check your own results.

HUD's published files sample the record: each snapshot carries a property's latest score at publication, so an inspection can be missing between snapshots, and no inspections conducted 2010–2012 appear in any file HUD still publishes. History here is assembled from every file HUD offers.
