Troubled Properties Analysis

Montgomery County DHCA classifies properties as Troubled, At-Risk, and Compliant through scheduled property code inspections. In general, a “Troubled Property” is a multifamily rental property with numerous and or severe “health and safety” housing code violations. The full Fiscal Year Troubled Property report for properties inspected between July 1 of the current year and June 30 of the following year is available at montgomerycountymd.gov/dhca/director/TroubledProperties.html.

This report provides the results and classifications of the properties inspected and identifies the properties to be inspected in the following Fiscal Year. Executive Regulation 05-17 provides a methodology for designating certain multifamily rental housing units as "Troubled Properties." These "Troubled Properties" are subject to at least annual housing code inspections and must develop and implement a corrective action plan.
