Inquiry
Can living rooms or dining rooms be counted as bedrooms for the purpose of the HSA? RESNET explicitly states that living rooms and foyers should not be counted.
Ruling
Living rooms, dining rooms, foyers, and other common rooms and walk-through rooms may not be counted as bedrooms. Green Raters have some discretion, but if the room is designed with no privacy it should not be counted as a bedroom.
