Landlords
Hundreds of Seattle landlords partner with the Seattle Housing Authority’s Housing Choice Voucher program to provide homes to families, individuals, the elderly and people with disabilities who have low incomes.
Through the program, SHA provides rent subsidy payments to landlords of privately-owned apartments and houses. While SHA administers the voucher program and determines whether tenants are eligible to receive the subsidy, rentals continue to be managed and leased by the owners, who screen tenants for suitability.
Voucher programs include Veteran Affairs Supportive Housing, which provides a subsidy and supportive services to U.S. veterans and the Family Unification Program which assists families facing separation or youth aging out of foster care.
