2025 FMR And Section 8 Rents For Geary County KS

Frequently Asked Section 8 Investing Questions

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).
  • Gross rent - TTP.

Example:

  • Payment standard: $1,500
  • Contract rent: $1,400
  • Utility allowance: $100
  • Tenant's TTP: $400
  • Gross rent: $1,500 ($1,400 + $100).
  • HAP: $1,100 (lower of $1,500 - $400 or $1,500 - $400).

Landlord receives $1,100 (PHA) + $400 (tenant) = $1,500 total.
