HUD and other affordable housing funding agencies are increasingly stressing the importance of
compliance with Section 504 standards for handicapped accessibility. USHC can evaluate your property or building and determine
what items are not in compliance with Section 504 protocols and then assist you in finding the most efficient way to get your
site in compliance.
We've been told by
many of our clients that HUD is enforcing Regulatory agreements and Assistance Contracts (Section 8, etc) like never before
and one of the greatest areas where owners and agents are being cited is failure to comply with Section 504 Standards! HUD
has dispatched a so-called "SWAT Team" (Special Workout Assistance Teams) to enforce parts of your regulatory agreement
that have been overlooked since the New Deal.
You
can protect yourself and your residents by finding out what steps, if any, you have to take to ensure that your site has to
take to be in compliance with Section 504 standards. USHC's rates are very reasonable and we can provide the evaluation
in a timely and painless manner.
