Landlords

The HAN's Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) program welcomes partnerships with Landlords in the City of Newnan and the surrounding Coweta County, GA communities to assist families in need of housing that's affordable. HAN's HCV Program allows low-income families to rent quality housing in the private market via federal funds provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Through the HCV Program, HAN pays a portion of eligible families' rent each month directly to the Landlord. Families can use their vouchers to rent a house or apartment in the private market.

If you wish to rent to an HCV family and enjoy a number of benefits including lower vacancy rates, tenant stability, and free property inspections, we encourage you to let us know and list your property on available rental websites, including www.GoSection8.com. We no longer keep an in-house listing of available rental properties.

Ultimately, it is the HCV family's decision whether or not to rent your property. Of course, as the Landlord, you would screen the HCV family just as you would any other prospective tenant. The following steps summarize the process to become an HCV Landlord:

Attend a Landlord Briefing (Scheduled annually)
Market your property once the HCV participant is selected
Complete and submit a Request for Tenancy Approval (RTA)
Pass Housing Quality Standards (HQS) Inspection
Execute lease and Housing Assistance Payment (HAP) contract
Comply with HUD and HAN's rules and regulations (enforce lease)
