Dear Landlord:
Thank you for your interest in Missoula Housing Authority’s Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program. This program is designed to assist very low income households with rental assistance. A landlord with a household that holds a Section 8 voucher will receive a portion of the monthly rent from the Missoula Housing Authority (MHA) and a portion of rent directly from the household.
You have taken the first step in becoming one of the landlords in this program by requesting this information packet. This packet contains an explanation of how our program works, a step-by-step outline of the process of entering into an assisted contract, and sample forms and documents you will encounter working with MHA.
