The NSPIRE Deep Dive: Outside and Mechanical Deficiencies

As HUD transitions to the NSPIRE inspection protocol, a stronger focus is being placed on site conditions, building exteriors, and mechanical systems—areas that play a critical role in resident safety, habitability, and long-term property maintenance.

This targeted training session will walk you through the most frequently cited outside and mechanical deficiencies under NSPIRE, including how they’re evaluated, scored, and distinguished from past UPCS standards. You'll gain clarity on issues such as damaged sidewalks, overgrown vegetation, roof integrity, HVAC failures, plumbing hazards, and water heater violations.
