Why Some Owners Rent to Voucher Holders
- The housing authority pays its share of the rent directly
- A large pool of qualified applicants
- Voucher tenants often stay for years
- Regular inspections help keep the home in good condition
How the Process Works
- Screen the applicant. Voucher holders go through our normal screening, applied the same way to everyone.
- Submit the Request for Tenancy Approval to the local housing authority.
- Pass the inspection. The housing authority inspects the home against federal housing quality standards.
- Rent approval. The housing authority confirms the rent is reasonable for the area.
- Sign the lease and the Housing Assistance Payments contract. The housing authority then pays its share directly, and the tenant pays the rest.
What We Handle
- Housing authority paperwork and communication
- Preparing the home for inspections and fixing any items found
- Annual reinspections and rent increase requests
- Rent collection from both the tenant and the housing authority
