I've heard some horror stories from a former state government employee about maintenance failures in FHFA housing in New Jersey. The conversations were pre-pandemic, so there may have been some changes by this time. However, I think that FHFA needs to have a special group to listen to tenant complaints and assure that owners are maintaining their properties. This may require new regs. In addition, there must be some mechanism to prevent post-pandemic rent increases and onerous lease agreements. Tenants should also be provided with contact numbers that work and whom to contact in government should owners not provide adequate maintenance.
Thank you for having this website for input.
