About This Episode

According to the CDC, over 70 million U.S. adults are disabled in some way. As a result, accessible housing is an important dwelling type for the property management industry to provide and is required by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Fair Housing Act.
Frank Yeagers of Yeagers Consulting joins the podcast to discuss why it’s important to be aware of accessibility barriers, your strategy and budget for improvements, and some of the most overlooked areas for being ADA-compliant.
During the leasing process, it’s beneficial to understand what prospects need for reasonable accommodations. Fortunately, there are tax incentives available to make affordable accessibility adjustments to existing properties, which can improve the quality of life for everyone in the community.
