What is a REAC inspection?

Just got a notice on my door that they’ll be doing annual REAC inspections next week and that will include inspecting a number of apartments picked at random by the inspector. Google turns up a bunch of certification info to become a REAC inspector, but I didn’t see any actual explanations of what it is. Anyone?

According to this… http://www.hud.gov/offices/reac/

The Real Estate Assessment Center’s (REAC) mission is to provide and promote the effective use of accurate, timely and reliable information assessing the condition of HUD’s portfolio; to provide information to help ensure safe, decent and affordable housing; and to restore the public trust by identifying fraud, abuse and waste of HUD resources.

And suddenly it becomes apparent why they’ve made so many repairs to the parking lot in the past few weeks… :slight_smile:
