Vendors and Landlords

Landlords and Property Managers, you can provide affordable housing in Jefferson County by participating in the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program and/or Tenant Based Rental Assistance (T.B.R.A.) program.

Landlords participating in the program operate in the same way as a landlord in the private rental market. The owner must sign a lease (minimum of one year for the first lease) with the Section 8 recipient. A principle benefit to the landlord for participating in the programs is that the federal government guarantees a good portion of the rent.
