long term benefits from accessibility modifications - allison.kretz - 10-08-2015

HUD should study the long term benefits of accessibility modifications, such as the length of time disabled households remain in the unit as a result of the modification as opposed to when they might have left had the renovations not been made, and the benefits to the owners in terms of stable rent and increased marketability of units because of accessibility features.
