WANTED: LANDLORDS
to help us to provide safe, decent, affordable housing:

Any Landlords can participate in our open market Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program. Call our office today to have a Landlord Outreach Handbook sent to you. 937-599-1845

Landlords use the same lease for Section 8 as you do for any other tenants. The unit will need to pass an initial inspection and an annual inspection for the tenant to remain on our rental assistance program. This protects both the tenant and the Landlord.

Landlords who work with the Section 8 program are guaranteed timely paid rent. An added bonus of working with Section 8 is that if the tenant is court evicted or is court ordered to repay you back rent or damages, that debt will follow the tenant via the HUD database for tenant terminations and debts owed. The tenant will not be permitted to receive federal rental assistance for five years in the county, outside the county OR outside the state until that debt is paid to you.

To learn more, see more info posted on our page or call our office at 937-599-1845.

FAQ:

Q. How are tenants selected for participation in the Housing Choice Voucher Program?

A. The tenants apply for rental assistance with the Logan Metropolitan Housing Authority when applications are being accepted. The names of each applicant are placed on a “waiting list.” It is a first come/first serve process. The applicant is income eligible with a criminal history check completed to verify that there are no felonious crimes committed within the past five years.

When pulled from the list of applicants, the applicant first attends an initial interview when all information on the application is verified and documented. Next is a briefing session. The briefing session will explain the Housing Choice Voucher program rules and regulations. The tenants are advised on the proper procedure in finding housing with regards to the bedroom size allocated to them based on family size. The applicant receives a Housing Choice Voucher that allows the applicant to begin their search for housing.

02/23/2016

Logan MHA offers HUD rental assistance to income eligible singles and families. Our Waiting List is open.
