You pay the difference to the owner as your share of the rent. This difference may exceed 30% of your monthly income. However, whenever a family moves to a new unit, the family’s share cannot exceed 40% of their monthly adjusted income. After the first term of the lease, the landlord may raise the rent. The Housing Authority will apply a rent reasonableness test to every new lease. Therefore proposed rent amounts are not guaranteed.
Payment standards and Utility Allowances are subject to change.
