In August 1994 HUD undertook both a management review and a physical inspection. The management received a “satisfactory” rating and the report stated that “[m]anagement is to be commended for the steps taken and planned to provide a more secure environment for the residents.” However, as a result of the physical inspection, HUD gave the property a “below average” rating. The report stated that many of the deficiencies noted in 1993 had not been corrected. Of the 18 units inspected, all but two needed immediate repairs, although each unit was deemed passable under HUD’s “Housing Quality Standards.”13 The report detailed numerous corrective actions required and, for each, listed an estimated cost and time frame for correction. Several months later HUD wrote, “It is understood that funds are not readily available for repairs,” but asked that the Owners be mindful of the safety of tenants and workers and that “hazardous” deficiencies be addressed as soon as possible.
