Why should you take this training?
The HUD REAC PASS protocol has become the standard of property inspections for multiple dwelling housing throughout the country. REAC PASS scores allow the condition of both private and public owned, subsidized, and insured properties across the country to be compared within one standard scoring system. HUD also requires the use of the REAC PASS UPCS protocols in public housing during annual inspections (replaced HQS). At this training, personnel will learn how to improve not only your organization’s housing quality, but also your REAC PASS inspection scores. Why is this relevant? Because your REAC PASS performance impacts the funding of your PHA or the valuing of your multifamily properties! Don’t miss this invaluable opportunity to educate your staff on the PASS sub-system! Each participant receives a colorful manual containing the UPCS Protocols in an easily understood layout, the latest protocol changes, detailed information on each defect’s scoring relevance, forms and discussions on the appeal process, a simple overview about how PASS inspections are performed, and also participate in identifying real defect examples.
