Landlords

More than 3,400 property owners in the District of Columbia are Housing Choice Voucher Program landlords. They work closely with the District of Columbia Housing Authority to develop and maintain a program that not only provides needed housing for thousands of families, but offers financial rewards for property owners, as well, including direct deposit and rents that are guaranteed. A Housing Providers Association helps shape policy that protects both landlords and tenants — and an agreement between the landlord, DCHA, and the tenant clarifies everyone’s obligations. HCVP is an effective way to expand the number of safe, quality homes available to low- and moderate-income residents of the city, while stimulating community stability and economic growth.
