Rental Assistance

Home Rental Assistance

RENTAL ASSISTANCE

Project-Based Housing Voucher Program is provided in partnership with The Michaels Organization, owners of Greenfield Apartments in Laurinburg, NC. The 48-unit housing complex receives rental assistance payments (project-based vouchers), for income-eligible residents. Southeastern partners with local agencies that provide housing counseling services to educate program participants on the home buying process. 

Tenant-based Housing Choice Vouchers increase affordable housing choices for eligible families. Families with a tenant-based voucher choose and lease safe, decent, and affordable privately-owned rental properties. Once a family finds a unit that meets their needs, the unit meets the housing quality standards, the rent is reasonable, and the unit meets other program requirements, the PHA executes a HAP contract with the property owner. This contract authorizes the PHA to make subsidy payments on behalf of the family. If the family moves out of the unit, the contract with the owner ends and the family can move with continued assistance to another unit.
