home.inspection.ongoing · v1.0.0

The participating jurisdiction must inspect HOME rental housing during the affordability period at least once every three years, using a random sample sized to the project, and applying the NSPIRE standards at 24 CFR 5.703 for activities subject to the NSPIRE compliance date.

HOME and HTF apply only the standards at 24 CFR 5.703; the scoring, ranking and appeal machinery at 5.705 through 5.713 does not apply to them.
