Why Property Owners Should Consider Tulsa Housing Authority's Section 8 Program
Casper Palmer is the Inspection Director for Tulsa Housing Authority (THA), which provides low-income families and individuals with safe, affordable, and decent housing. He has been with the organization for more than 20 years.
In this episode…Housing choice voucher programs are valuable opportunities for low-income families, individuals, or the elderly to receive safe and affordable housing. Officially known as Section 8 housing, these programs can have a negative reputation, with landlords believing that tenants may take advantage of the assistance or damage properties with no repercussions. So why should you provide housing for Section 8 programs, and how can you benefit from them?
According to Casper Palmer, Tulsa Housing Authority (THA) requires property inspections to both enhance living conditions for the tenant and ensure that landlords have control over their housing. While property owners are responsible for maintenance repairs when issues are discovered upon initial inspection, they can report tenant damage to THA at any point during the tenant's stay. Residents must pay the repairs for any damage caused, or they risk losing their housing voucher. With guaranteed rent payments from THA and tenant accountability, you can maximize your rental portfolio while providing assistance to people in need.
Listen to this episode of The Same Day Podcast with Mat Zalk as he interviews Casper Palmer, Inspection Director for Tulsa Housing Authority, about Section 8 programs. Casper explains the required inspections for Section 8 housing, how landlords are notified of upcoming inspections, and THA's process for tenant accountability.
