What is a Section 8 house?
The terms Section 8 apartment, Section 8 housing or Section 8 houses basically mean the same thing, except for the dwelling type. These are terms people use when they are referring to an independent landlord that has had the necessary inspections and repairs done to their property that will allow them to accept a Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher. This is a form of subsidized housing.
On the average, a subsidized housing
tenant will only pay about %30 of their monthly income (may vary). The rest will be "subsidized"
by that particular housing program. Note, the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program is funded by HUD and administered locally by housing authorities.
There are a lot of subsidized housing
programs, the Section 8 program is only one of them.
If you would like to learn more about these programs and how or where to apply, order the Section 8 and Subsidized Housing Online Packet.
