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.
