Comments on: HUD, Westchester approach showdown https://www.overlawyered.com/2013/04/hud-westchester-approach-showdown/ Chronicling the high cost of our legal system Wed, 24 Apr 2013 20:24:08 +0000 hourly 1 By: Western Rover https://www.overlawyered.com/2013/04/hud-westchester-approach-showdown/comment-page-1/#comment-209445 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 20:24:08 +0000 http://overlawyered.com/?p=37755#comment-209445 I rented a house once on a six-month lease, where I had to provide my own refrigerator, and that had no railing on a 3′ high porch. If a family wanted to use Section 8 to pay for the house, I believe that any of those three conditions would have prevented the assistance office from accepting the house.

Would the law HUD wants require a landlord to correct such conditions, or would this landlord have been de facto exempt from this law had it existed in that time and place?
