Applicants must meet all eligibility requirements for the PBV location in order to be place on the waiting list.

Anyone needing access to a computer with internet service may visit a public library.

Similar to the Tenant-Based Voucher Program, the (PBV) Program provides low-and moderate-income households with monthly rental assistance. However, PBV assistance is tied to particular units rather than to the family. Eligible families only receive assistance while living in the PBV unit. MDHA selects families from the PBV waiting list and refers them to the owner of the PBV unit to fill their vacancies.
