The Multifamily Housing Complaint Line is a service provided by HUD's Multifamily Housing Clearinghouse (MFHC) that enables residents of HUD-insured and -assisted properties and other community members to report complaints with a property's management concerning matters such as poor maintenance, dangers to health and safety, mismanagement, and fraud. It can be accessed by dialing 1-800-MULTI-70 (1-800-685-8470).

Callers to this line can speak to MFHC information specialists, in both English and Spanish, who will help them resolve their problem. MFHC staff explain how to more effectively report problems to building management, answer questions about residents' rights, and refer callers to local Public Housing Agencies and other organizations, if needed. If a complaint is serious enough to bring to HUD's attention, MFHC information specialists write up a report on the problem and fax or email it to the appropriate HUD Field Office for action.

The Multifamily Housing Complaint Line supports HUD's enforcement efforts by empowering tenants and community residents to act as HUD's eyes and ears to ensure safe, decent and sanitary housing.
