What Happens Once I’ve Selected a Tenant?
Once you have selected a tenant you must complete their Request for Tenancy Approval (RTA) form and submit it to our office. When the RTA has been received, we will call you to schedule an inspection of the property within 5 to 10 business days. It is important that the tenant be present for this inspection. If the unit passes inspection and the rent is approved, you and the tenant sign the Lease, and you sign a concurrent Housing Assistance Payments Contract with the Housing Authority. If the unit does not pass inspection, we will allow up to ten (10) working days for correction of the repair items. A re-check inspection will be necessary to confirm that the corrections have been made. Tenants have only 120 days to find housing before they risk losing their Voucher, so repairs must be made in a timely manner.
