Affordable Housing Compliance Services

Frequently asked questions

Why use independent compliance reviewers?

Independent reviewers catch findings before state agencies, investors, or HUD do. An outside set of experienced eyes reduces bias, surfaces documentation gaps early, and gives leadership defensible assurance ahead of MORs, audits, and investor reviews.

Can Altus work alongside our internal compliance staff?

Yes. Altus is designed to be an extension of your compliance department. We scale up during lease-ups, MOR prep, HOTMA readiness, and portfolio spikes, then step back when your team has capacity.

Do you support affordable housing lease-ups?

Yes. Lease-up compliance is one of the highest-risk moments in a property's life. We review initial certifications in real time so units move faster, tax credit delivery is protected, and first-year files close cleanly.

Do you review layered funding portfolios?

Yes. We work daily across LIHTC, HUD Multifamily, HOME, RAD, PBV, HCV, Section 202, Section 811, Rural Development, Bond, and state-administered programs - including properties layered across multiple sources.

How quickly can we start?

Most engagements can begin within one to two weeks of the strategy call. Urgent MOR, investor-finding, or lease-up situations are prioritized.

Can we use Altus temporarily, for a specific project?

Absolutely. Many clients engage Altus for a single MOR, a HOTMA readiness sprint, a lease-up, or overflow file review, then transition to ongoing monitoring only if it makes sense.
