Landlords

By participating in the Housing Choice Voucher Program you receive:

• Excellent Customer Service.  We appreciate our landlords and offer many ways to make your experience a pleasant one.

• Good Tenants.  We conduct criminal history background checks on all potential Housing Choice Voucher clients. Landlords may have their own selection criteria, as well. A participating landlord is not required to rent to a family that does not meet all eligibility requirements. All clients are required to take a Good Tenant/Good Neighbor class.

• Low Vacancy Rates.  Because clients are looking for quality affordable and accessible housing, you may not frequently have a vacancy.

• Direct Deposit.  Landlords receive rent deposited directly into a bank account to eliminate potential mishaps with regular mail.

• FREE Advertising!  You can use the AffordableHousing.com (formerly GoSection8.com) website to list your rental properties online. 

• Guaranteed Rent.  As a participating landlord, you receive guaranteed rent while also providing an opportunity for a family in the HCV program to become more self-sufficient.

• Beginning with 2024 tax year, FWHS will no longer be mailing out 1099’s. They will be accessible through their account via the Landlord Portal.
