Did your DC rental license expire — or did your PIP inspection fail?

That’s the moment most 4–20 unit owners realize how exposed they are. UMA helps multifamily owners uncover compliance gaps before fines, rent‑withholding, or enforcement referrals hit.

What Triggers Compliance Risk

  • Expired or missing BBL renewals 
  • Failed or overdue PIP inspections 
  • Rent control registration gaps 
  • Tenant notice and disclosure errors 
  • Licensing misalignment with ownership structure

Most owners only find out after the violation notice arrives — when rent collection freezes or renewal deadlines pass. UMA exists so you never face that scramble.We don’t list buildings. We engineer exits.Our compliance audit protects your building’s income and valuation before penalties hit.
