SECTION 8 RENTALS MADE EASY

We Eliminate the Stress of Managing Section 8 Properties

Managing Section 8 housing can pose a significant challenge for landlords who are not familiar with the many rules and regulations of this HUD program. Section 8 can be time-consuming, challenging, and, at times, overwhelming due to the compliance guidelines required in addition to normal management activities. In exchange for “guaranteed rent”, Landlords must keep the home in decent, safe, and sanitary condition while maintaining the rent at fair market value.

In Georgia, Section 8 is voluntary and owners are not required to offer their rental properties to Section 8 participants. Landlords who opt to take part in Section 8 help provide housing to low-income families, the elderly and disabled, and our military veterans. Participating landlords receive a housing subsidy directly from a local public housing agency (PHA) that generally covers a large portion of the tenant’s monthly rent and any unsubsidized rent is paid directly to a landlord by the tenant.

We have managed Section 8 homes since 2010. As a result, we have the skills, knowledge and relationships to successfully navigate the many Housing Authorities in the Atlanta Area. We oversee all aspects of the program ranging from advertising your rental to move-out and turnover.

• Paperwork required to register your rental with the Housing Authorities
• Professional photographs and listing properties in all the right places
