On March 10, 2023 HUD will be visiting Oak Hill Apartments to complete a REAC inspection. For your convenience we are happy to offer self-assessed annual home inspections. Typically, our management team would come by to inspect these items but if you’d like to inspect them yourself, that’s less time we’ll need to be inside your home!
