| Landlord Frequently Asked Questions |
What are the benefits to participating in a rental assistance program?
|
- Timely housing assistance payments
- Regular inspections help maintain property value
- Advertise your available rental units FREE
|
If I participate in a rental assistance program, do my legal rights change?
NO. When participating in a federally funded rental assistance program, you are required to abide by and comply with Washington State Landlord-Tenant Law, just the same as you do with non-assisted tenants.
Am I restricted by the amount of security deposit and/or rent I can charge?
Participating in a rental assistance program does not place limits on the amount of security deposit or rent a participating landlord can charge. However, security deposits and rents must be comparable to non-assisted tenants in similar units, in the same area.
Who do I contact if I have other questions?
Walla Walla Housing Authority's Rental Assistance Division is here to help with all your questions.
