Policy and Procedures
Property Emergencies
It is the responsibility of the Owner/Agent of an IHDA development to provide timely and proactive communication to IHDA regarding property emergencies, specifically those that constitute an exigent health and safety risk to tenants, result in sudden operational or financial losses, and/or render a unit or building uninhabitable, even if temporary.
To that end, within five (5) business days of a casualty loss event, such as a fire or flood, that renders unit(s) uninhabitable, the Owner/Agent must submit a completed Notice of Casualty Loss to their Asset Manager.
Once repairs of the damages are completed, the Owner/Agent must submit a completed Notice of Completed Repairs-Casualty Loss along with an updated Certificate of Occupancy from their municipality dated after the repairs are completed.
