Grounds for HAP Contract Termination: When Can the PHA Fire You?

June 25, 2024 • Legal Desk

Breach of Contract

The PHA can terminate the HAP contract (and payments) for several reasons:

  • HQS Failure: Failing to repair defects within the abatement period.
  • Fraud: Accepting side payments.
  • Eviction: If you evict the tenant, the HAP contract terminates automatically.
  • Foreclosure: If the property is foreclosed upon (though protections exist for tenants).
