OUR SERVICES

At GFB, we offer full-service NSPIRE Readiness solutions tailored to multifamily properties under HUD, Section 8, and LIHTC programs. Whether you’re preparing for your first NSPIRE inspection or correcting past violations, we ensure your property is inspection-ready from top to bottom.

NSPIRE Pre-Inspections

We conduct thorough unit-by-unit and building-wide inspections that mirror HUD’s NSPIRE standards. Using the official NSPIRE protocols and scoring system, our team identifies health, safety, and livability issues that would result in point deductions or failed inspections.

What’s Included:

• Full or sample-based unit inspections (in line with NSPIRE sampling rules)

• Detailed review of all inspectable areas: units, building systems, exterior, common areas, and site

• On-site walkthroughs with your maintenance team

• Real-time photo documentation of deficiencies

• Recommendations for immediate and long-term repairs

Why It Matters:

Catching issues early prevents point loss, failed inspections, and costly re-inspections. Our pre-inspections simulate the real thing—so there are no surprises on inspection day.

Digital Reporting & HUD-Compliant Documentation

After each pre-inspection, we deliver a digital report that clearly outlines every defect, location, severity, and corrective action.

What You’ll Receive:

• NSPIRE-style inspection report with categorized deficiencies

• Photo evidence for each issue

• Priority repair checklist (health/safety first)

• PDF + Excel formats for easy internal tracking

• Option to include HUD-matching scoring estimates

Why It Matters:

You get a clear, professional roadmap to compliance—no guesswork, no gray areas. Our reports are presentation-ready for owners, asset managers, and REAC advisors.

NSPIRE-Targeted Repairs

We don’t just inspect—we fix. Our skilled technicians and contractor partners perform targeted repairs that eliminate inspection risks and bring your property into compliance fast.

Common Repairs Include:

• GFCI outlet installation and grounding

• Smoke & CO detector upgrades

• Trip/fall hazard removals

• Window & door repairs (e.g., egress, locking, alignment)

• Light fixture, switch, and breaker corrections

• Site and exterior code violations

Why It Matters:

Passing NSPIRE is about execution. Our repair work is informed by inspection insight, so we’re fixing the right things the right way, the first

Continuous NSPIRE Monitoring (Quarterly Compliance Checks)

Staying ready year-round is the key to avoiding the stress and financial risk of surprise inspections. Our Quarterly NSPIRE Monitoring service ensures your property remains in compliance between official HUD inspections—eliminating the recurring headache of being caught unprepared.

What’s Included Each Quarter

• Sample-based inspection of units, systems, and exteriors

• Updates on new NSPIRE rule changes or scoring criteria

• Photo-documented compliance snapshot

• Updated deficiency and repair list for your team

• Quarterly NSPIRE Health Score tracking

• Maintenance coaching as needed

Why It Matters:

Inspections are no longer predictable—and penalties are steeper than ever. With continuous monitoring, you maintain a state of inspection readiness at all times. This service helps you avoid emergency repair spending, failed scores, and management pressure.

Best For:

• Properties with high unit turnover

• Large portfolios across multiple sites

• Housing authorities or management companies seeking full-year compliance contract

Move-In Inspections (Upgraded to NSPIRE Standards + Reset & Clean)

We provide full Move-In Inspections for Section 8 units that meet NSPIRE health and safety standards—plus a professional reset and clean service to ensure each unit is not only compliant, but also clean, safe, and truly move-in ready for your next tenant.

What You Get:

• NSPIRE-compliant inspection report
