đ¨ LANDLORDS: Want to PASS your Section 8 inspection the FIRST time?
Most Section 8 inspections donât fail for major issues⌠they fail for SMALL things that couldâve been fixed in advance.
Hereâs how to get your unit inspection-ready:
â
Working smoke & carbon monoxide detectors (REQUIRED)â
All outlets, switches & lights fully functionalâ
No leaks under sinks, ceilings, or around toiletsâ
Proper heat & hot water (inspectors WILL check)â
Windows open/close properly + screens installedâ
Secure doors & working locks (including bedroom doors)â
No peeling paint, holes, or damaged wallsâ
Appliances clean, working, and properly installedâ
Clear exits & no safety hazards anywhere in the unit
đĄ Pro Tip: Section 8 inspectors follow strict HQS guidelinesâif ONE item fails, the whole unit can fail.
That means delays, lost rent, and more stress.
đ˛ If youâre a landlord and want to avoid violations, DM me âSECTION 8âIâll help you get it right BEFORE the inspection.
