HUD Releases Final NSPIRE Inspection Standards
On June 15th, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) announced and shared the final Inspection Standards for its new inspection protocol, the National Standards for the Physical Inspection of Real Estate (NSPIRE), representing the agency’s years-long effort to consolidate and align housing quality requirements and associated Inspection Standards across programs.
LeadingAge National has worked with HUD for years as it developed NSPIRE, which will be implemented on July 1, 2023 for public housing and voucher programs and on Oct. 1, 2023 for multifamily programs, including Section 8 Project-Based Rental Assistance and Section 202 Supportive Housing for the Elderly. After developing and testing draft Standards and receiving public comment on prior versions, HUD’s June 15th final NSPIRE physical Inspection Standards are one of three subordinate notices to the May 11, 2023 NSPIRE final rule; the other two – one on Scoring and one an administrative notice – are forthcoming.
