Our landlord partners are critical to maintaining and increasing affordable housing options in Bloomington. If you own rental housing, you are eligible to accept rental assistance.
Accepting Rental Assistance
The process of renting to a tenant with a voucher is similar to renting to a family who does not have assistance. You screen and select your tenants using your standard screening criteria. You collect the full amount of rent and maintain your property.
We work to make the process as easy as possible. There are three requirements to participate:
- Complete paperwork prior to the initial move-in.
- Promptly report any proposed changes in the rent agreement, lease terms, or lease violations.
- Provide housing that meets HQS Inspection Standards. Inspection occurs at initial move-in and annually.
A Housing Quality Inspection (HQS) is a required health and safety inspection. The inspection ensures that families moving into your rental units are safe. These resources will help you understand and prepare for an inspection:
