Summary

HUDOIG is conducting an evaluation of inspection results for HUD-assisted properties for the Office of Multifamily Housing Programs and the Office of Public and Indian Housing. Congress directed OIG to analyze REAC inspections that occurred over the past year. Our evaluation objectives are to 1. Analyze inspection results and deficiencies for Multifamily and PIH properties with final NSPIRE scores of 60 to 70 and compare them with inspection results for those with final NSPIRE scores below 60; 2. Assess the adequacy of HUD oversight and management of these inspections and properties; and 3. Assess the impact of HUD staffing reductions and contract cancellations on the oversight of these properties.
