Most Popular Questions
How can I determine how much rent DCHA will pay for my rental?
What is a lease-up packet?
The lease-up packet (also known as the RFTA-Request for Tenancy Approval packet) is the bundle of documents that need to be signed by the tenant, owner/agent and submitted to DCHA after tenant approval.
What is the 'Comparable Entry' form and why is it important?
The Comparable Entry Form lists other similar and recently rented "unassisted" units. Unassisted unit means unsubsidized (or leased by a market renter). This data is used justify higher rent amount.
How much is the charge to lease out my vacant rental?
The leasing fee is equal to one month's rent.
Why do you charge Landlords to complete and submit the lease-up packet? Isn't that supposed to be included in the leasing fee?
This process is unique to HUD's subsidized housing process. Click here to learn more.
Why is the backstory important to what we do? What is the ideal tenant?
Our team obtains tenant approvals based on the credit/background as well as the backstory obtained from the underwriting interview. The ideal tenant will stay a long time, pay their portion of the rent and will be reasonable.
Should I install a washer/dryer in my unit?
Yes. A washer/dryer used to be a nicety, but it is not a necessity ESPECIALLY if you're in Southeast, DC. We recommend landlords to pay upfront for the washer/dryer or pay on the back end with a vacant unit for 3-6 months.
