Arcor Inc has spent over 20 years helping a variety of businesses, including multifamily properties, become ADA Compliant and become less of a target for ADA Lawsuits. If investors or owners of multifamily properties, fail to comply with ADA requirements, this will likely result in costly lawsuits.
There is no such thing as an ADA unit, however, the common areas of apartment buildings most likely have to apply to ADA standards.The common areas usually include, but are not limited to the rental office of the property, (as rental offices are generally open to the general public) and the parking lots of a leasing office, (usually requiring a van-accessible bay, with access aisles for van spots needing to be at least 8 feet wide). ADA rules will often also apply to game rooms , club houses or community rooms, particularly if these rooms are rented out to the public.
Multifamily facilities are required to comply with Title III of the ADA. This provision prevents discrimination against customers with disabilities and requires businesses to provide accommodations that improve accessibility and participation for disabled customers.
In order to avoid ADA LAWSUITS, we will help you identify any barriers to access and show you how to correct these.
