Section 8 Inspections - PM's or Owner's Responsibility?
I am currently in the process of getting my out of state property Section 8 approved. I have Section 8 tenants who qualify and are ready to move in, the only thing waiting is a successful inspection. The property failed its first inspection because of a multitude of preventable issues. The issues have allegedly been fixed by the property manager's handyman, so the second inspection is all that is left. Assuming that inspection passes, it is looking like at least a half of month's rent will be lost from this failure/delay.
My question for the forum is, given that I live out of state, is it the property management company's responsibility to ensure that the property is in a condition that will pass the Section 8 inspection or is it mine?
