How much can a landlord receive in rent for a Section 8 property?

Fair Market Rent (FMR): HUD sets FMR by bedroom size for each area. Payment Standard: The local PHA sets this between 90–110% of the FMR. It's the max PHA assistance. Gross Rent: Contract rent (charged by landlord) + utility allowance (estimated tenant utility costs). Must fit payment standard limits. Housing Assistance Payment (HAP): The PHA pays the lower of: Payment standard - Tenant's Total Tenant Payment (TTP) or Gross rent - TTP.

How are Section 8 tenant payments calculated?

Tenant's Contribution is the higher of: 30% of adjusted monthly income, 10% of gross monthly income, Welfare rent (if applicable), or PHA minimum rent. If gross rent exceeds payment standard, the tenant covers the excess. Tenant's total cannot exceed 40% of adjusted income when signing a lease.

What are the landlord requirements for a Section 8 rental?

Properties must pass initial and annual HQS inspections, be rented at or below HUD's FMR, and match the tenant's voucher size (e.g., 2-bedroom unit for 2-bedroom voucher).

How to Find Section 8 Housing Properties for Sale

Find affordable properties on Zillow or MLS databases, network with real estate agents specializing in Section 8 properties, determine budget for renovation if a property doesn't meet HQS standards, and use BNB Calc to analyze potential properties for their Section 8 income potential.
