What does "SWARMP" mean for my building's facade status?

SWARMP stands for "Safe With a Repair and Maintenance Program" - the building's facade passed inspection but requires ongoing minor maintenance to remain compliant. This is a marketable status with minimal buyer concern. The building must conduct periodic repairs per the program plan, but costs are typically modest and handled through regular maintenance budgets rather than special assessments.
