Description:
This program is designed for the Housing Choice Voucher TBV and PBV program that is now required to use the new inspection program known as National Standards for the Physical Inspections of Real Estate (NSPIRE-V). This is not the course on public housing programs. HUD has begun a complete review and revamp of the Real Estate Assessment Center (REAC) inspection protocols. This training will help attendees understand and begin preparations for the implementation of NSPIRE. During this training, participants will learn about the new NSPIRE protocol, including standards, variances, enforcement, corrective actions, and administration, as well as why HUD is implementing the new protocol. We will take you deep into the standards, health and safety factors, the corrective timetable for deficiencies, proper methods to conduct an inspection, and new conditions that are now required under the program.

- Identify the new inspection requirements and standards.
