I'm your host, Chris Caramanica, and today, we focus on the critical topic of inspection readiness with Mike D'Amore, Vice President of Facilities and Inspection Readiness at @WinnCompanies. In this episode, Mike and I discuss why being inspection-ready isn’t just about what meets the eye. We examine the importance of using all five senses when assessing a property, ensuring nothing is overlooked. From curb appeal to subtle details, every aspect matters in maintaining a high standard for your community. We also explore the HUD REAC (Real Estate Assessment Center) and NSPIRE (National Standards for the Physical Inspection of Real Estate) and why each serves as essential benchmarks for property owners, operators, and residents. Learn how to proactively manage your property to exceed the HUD standards, ultimately enhancing your community's value and livability. Develop a strategy and tactics to be inspection-ready every day. Working to remain inspection-ready means there is no need to panic when it’s time for the REAC or NSPIRE inspection. Ready to go beyond the work?
