With projectbased vouchers, the rental assistance is tied to the property, not to you as a tenant. So, what that means
0:27

is that you don't apply with a housing authority. You're going to apply directly at the property that offers

projectbased units. Here's how to get started. Find a property that offers projectbased voucher units. Contact the

property directly. Ask about availability and the weight list. And then submit your application and
0:50

required documents like proof of income and household size. If you're approved and a unit becomes available, your rent

will be based on your income, just like other HUD assisted programs. If you need help finding a property, you can visit
