Colorado Section 8 Housing.
The Colorado Section 8 Housing Voucher program provides low income families, seniors, and the disabled with financial assistance. This government funded program provides low cost homes, apartments, and private rental properties to tenants. There is also emergency section 8 housing assistance to elderly and low income individuals or families. Many housing authorities listed below as well as non profit agencies throughout Colorado administer the Section 8 housing program near you, and find who to call to apply below.
Very low income families can receive subsidized homes (which is a form of rental help) from the Section-8 housing voucher program. Assistance is focused on the elderly, disabled, single moms and very low-income families in Colorado who meet program guidelines. Beneficiaries of the vouchers are able to select their own housing units, provided it meets qualifications. Many landlords work with housing authorities near you to rent out their properties. There may be townhouses, apartments and even single-family homes that accept section 8 vouchers.
The Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program provides the low income with support. It is done in the form of direct monthly payments to property owners and landlords, and the vouchers will pay a portion on the family’s rent. Landlords need to of course agree to this arrangement. in addition, the single person (or family) who is enrolled into the Colorado section 8 program also needs to pay up to 30% of their income for their housing (rent, utilities, water, etc).
Individuals who receive the subsidy must also agree and abide by their lease rental agreement from the landlord and the Colorado Section 8 program requirements. The family will still need to pay a portion of their housing costs, and they will owe the difference between the actual rent charged by the landlord and the amount subsidized by the Section 8 HCV housing program.
