Why Become a Housing Choice Voucher Landlord?
The Housing Choice Voucher Program, formerly known as Section 8, provides peace of mind: steadier income and fewer vacancies.
Are you a new Housing Choice Voucher Landlord?
Get a bonus payment of $1,500 when you rent to a Housing Choice Voucher participant for the first time. Contact us to learn more.
Are you a returning Housing Choice Voucher Landlord?
We’ll give you a loyalty bonus payment when you rent to another Housing Choice Voucher tenant within 90 days of vacancy. List your rental unit on AffordableHousing.com, where families searching for housing in our community can easily access your available unit(s). Contact us to learn more about the incentive payments!

(Request for Tenancy Approval)
To avoid delays, double check that the owner information matches what’s on file at the County Assessor’s Office. Confirm that your unit is move-in ready and will pass the HQS inspection- see details in the RFTA packet.
A SCCHA contractor will reach out to you to conduct the HQS inspection (Housing Quality Standards).
(Housing Assistance Payment)
SCCHA will send you the HAP Contract, which you can electronically sign and return to us with your lease agreement. Your Section 8 unit and payments are now in the system.
You’ll receive payment as soon as the HAP Contract is processed. After that, expect payments on the first of the month. Sign up on the Owner Portal for direct deposit, tenant info, and tracking payments.
