Landlords

Over 1500 landlords partner with the Seattle Housing Authority’s Housing Choice Voucher program to provide homes to members of our community with low incomes. 

Need to get in touch? Email landlordsupport@seattlehousing.org or call 206.239.1672.

Orientation for housing providers

Held virtually on the 4th Tuesday of each month 10  – 11:30 a.m. Email Landlord support to receive an invitation.

Through the Housing Choice Voucher program (formerly Section 8), SHA provides rental assistance for people with low incomes to rent from landlords throughout the Seattle rental market. While SHA administers the voucher program and determines whether tenants are eligible to receive the subsidy, rentals continue to be managed and leased by the owners, who screen tenants for suitability.

Benefits of the program

Consistent rental payments, free inspections and helping others are a few of the benefits of participating in the Housing Choice Voucher program.

How to participate

List your rental with SHA and find information about leasing, rents and payments and inspections.

Book an appointment

Landlords who wish to meet with Housing Choice Voucher staff in person are strongly encouraged to book an appointment. Services are also available by phone and email.

The SHA Portal is a secure, convenient way for landlords to conduct business with the Seattle Housing Authority. SHA Landlords have been sent one-time code to register. If you need assistance, please contact landlordsupport@seattlehousing.org or (206) 239-1672.
