Cómo funciona el programa?

los Programa de vales de elección de vivienda (HCV) Brinda asistencia de alquiler a personas y familias de bajos ingresos, que seleccionan sus propios alquileres entre unidades en el mercado privado. No asistimos a la unidad, asistimos a la familia que alquila la unidad.

La familia paga aproximadamente un tercio de sus ingresos en alquiler al propietario y nosotros pagamos el resto, hasta cierto límite, directamente al propietario.

Cada unidad de alquiler debe pasar una inspección inicial y anual.

El propietario utiliza su propio contrato de arrendamiento con nuestro anexo. Se aceptan arrendamientos de mes a mes.

Rent increases are permitted as long as the total rent is no more than our reasonable rent standard.

The landlord can leave the program at the end of any lease term. The HCV program does not require notice to the tenant, however, state law may require it.

The landlord can charge a market-rate security deposit in accordance with his/her practices and state law.

Can I get my current tenant on the program?

We assist people who are already on our waiting list. You can encourage tenants to apply by submitting a pre-aplicación, but there will be a lengthy wait, typically years. If one of your tenants is issued a voucher, he/she has the option of remaining in your unit if you would like to participate in the program.

Does the Housing Authority screen the tenants?

La Autoridad de Vivienda evalúa la elegibilidad del programa. No evaluamos si será un buen inquilino. Verificamos la elegibilidad de ingresos y el estado migratorio legal. Llevamos a cabo verificaciones de delincuentes sexuales registrados y podemos rechazar a ciertos delincuentes violentos o relacionados con drogas si se nos revela la información. Sin embargo, estos son estándares mínimos. Alentamos a los propietarios a evaluar a los inquilinos como lo harían con sus inquilinos no subsidiados. Recuerde, este es su inquilino. Examínelos como lo haría con cualquier otro inquilino.

Un inquilino del Vale de Elección de Vivienda ha solicitado alquilar mi unidad. ¿Qué sigue?

El inquilino le entregará una Solicitud de aprobación de arrendamiento (RTA) para que la complete. Revisaremos el RTA, negociaremos el alquiler con usted y programaremos una inspección. Vea nuestro Inspection Q&A.

After the unit passes inspection, the RTA is approved, and the contract is signed, the tenant is authorized to move in. Your first rent check will arrive after all paperwork is processed. If the tenant moves in early, we will not start paying our portion of the rent until these steps are complete. The tenant would be responsible for the entire rent amount.

¿Qué pasa si tengo un problema con un inquilino de HCV?

This is your tenant, like any other tenant. You can take any action, up to and including eviction, in accordance with the law and the terms of your lease. Please consult an attorney or apartment association before taking action, and copy us on any notices of lease violation.

How Much Rent Can I Collect?

The rent that you can collect under the HCV program is based upon:

• The “reasonable rent” for your area and your unit type. We base this rent on our own market studies. Landlords can submit their own comparable rents for us to consider in determining the reasonable rent.
• The rent the landlord charges for comparable unassisted units. In other words, you cannot collect more from the HCV program than you would from any other renter.
• Our staff will work with you to determine the allowable rent for your unit.
• You are responsible for collecting the tenant’s portion of the rent, which is based on the family’s income. The tenant pays between 30-40% of his/her income in rent. After the initial lease term, the tenant may pay more than 40% with Housing Authority approval. We must approve the total rent you collect, including rent increases.

Can I list my vacant units with the Housing Authority?

Yes! We provide free rental listings on our website and in printed listings that we give to voucher holders who are searching for a place to rent. To list a unit, ven aqui or call our Info Line. Also, you can state in your own rental ads that you will accept Housing Choice Vouchers.
