The mother and her two kids had been waiting a year to get a housing voucher. They thought they would get into their new home soon, but didn't realize how long it would take to get an inspection.
A woman and her two small kids finally got the voucher they needed to move into a home after a one-year wait, but only to wait five more months when the Houston Housing Authority didn't act on the required home inspection.In this week's Renters' Rights, we introduce you to a mother who was at the end of her rope, waiting for months on the Houston Housing Authority to inspect the apartment she was set to move into.
"I am kind of at the point where something is going to break, and I am trying not to let it be me," she explained. She says she called and emailed the housing authority for five months, who either gave her the runaround or didn't respond. All while she worked full-time, she struggled to pay for another week in a hotel while waiting for the inspection.
David Northern, the president and CEO of the Houston Housing Authority agrees this woman shouldn't have waited for an inspection as long as she did.
