Chair Hudson asks about inspection wait times and failure rates
Hudson asks how long it takes to schedule a walkthrough and what percentage of unit inspections fail. Reed says inspections are scheduled within two to three weeks and about 50% of HRA inspections fail, with about two inspections before approval.
Thank you.
And what is the average wait time to schedule an apartment for a walkthrough by DHS?
In the reorganization, the inspection team now reports to HRA.
And so
Right now, inspections are scheduled within two to three weeks.
Thank you.
And what percent of unit inspections for habitability fail?
For the inspections that are conducted by HRA, a good 50% of them fail.
And so there's about two inspections before an application is approved for lease up.
Sorry, there are two inspections before they're approved, did you say?
Yes, about 50% fail of the ones that are conducted by HRA, the cellar, basements, attic, first floors, right?
The inspections that are conducted by the provider, we don't have that information readily available because when those units fail, the provider works with the landlord to correct those failures before the application is submitted to us.
