Beyond Compliance

Bringing Warmth to Every Building We Serve

Compliance work is what Olive Tree is paid to do for the housing authorities, property managers, nonprofits, agencies, and developers who operate rental assistance housing. Community visits are something separate — Yolanda's own commitment to spending time with senior tenants, in any building, whether or not Olive Tree has a consulting relationship there.

Community Visits are always complimentary — no consulting contract required.

Brought to you by a rental assistance compliance specialist with 20+ years of HUD and NYC HPD experience, serving properties nationwide.

Just Stopping By

Sometimes it's simply showing up to say hello and check in.

"These visits aren't part of any consulting contract. But protecting a building's income and caring about the people living in it have always been the same job to us."
