Management and Performance of Housing Inspection Services
Partnership for Response and Recovery (PaRR Inspections) has been awarded a contract for the "Management and Performance of Housing
Inspection Services in Disaster Areas Nationwide."
The FEMA Disaster Housing Program provides grants for primary residents
(owners and renters) whose houses have been damaged as a result of a
disaster and who have inadequate or no insurance coverage. These grants
are for alternate housing rentals and/or home repairs to restore the
home to a safe, sanitary, and secure condition. The grants may include
the reimbursement of temporary accommodations incurred as a result of
the disaster.
Housing Inspection Services involve collecting and reporting required
information from applicants whose houses have been damaged by disasters.
A wide range of information is collected during the inspection, e.g.,
physical damage to the house, ownership, occupancy, insurance, personal
property losses, recommendations on mitigation measures, photographs,
and other essential information regarding disaster-related expenses
and/or existing needs. FEMA then determines the type and amount of
financial assistance the applicants are eligible for; based on the
information that is collected and recorded on pen-based computers by
PaRR Inspectors during physical home inspections.
