In today’s suffering economy, many Realtors have reluctantly become landlords and have difficulty collecting the rent due to them. Many tenants have circumstances that happen to them that are not always in their control. After several bad experiences, landlords may feel refreshed to know there is an alternative to the stress: subsidized housing. A portion or all of the rent could be paid by HUD, in essence, “guaranteeing†the rent. Having experience with subsidized housing can help you gain landlords and help your job become easier regarding collecting rent. But you need to understand the rules and regulations that come with it.

  • Identify what subsidized housing is.
  • List the requirements of income limits and other guidelines for the tenant.
  • Determine who determines eligibility of a tenant.
  • Understand the concept of housing vouchers issued to the tenant.
  • Specify the rent subsidy the tenant must pay vs. what the assistance amount will be.
  • Know where to find tenants for Section 8 opportunities.
  • Understand the importance of Fair Housing Laws and avoid discrimination.
  • Identify what a Housing Assistance Payment Contract is and why it’s important
  • Determine other obligations required by the tenant, landlord and Housing Authority.
  • Know what the housing requirements are as determined by the Public Housing Agency.
  • Understand the process of inspections on the unit by the PHA.
  • Determine the guidelines for payments from the PHA
