July 28, 2024 • Market Analyst
Support Systems Matter
HUD-VASH is a joint program between HUD and the VA. Homeless veterans receive a voucher AND case management/clinical services from the VA.
Benefits for Landlords
- Case Manager Contact: Unlike standard Section 8 where you are on your own, VASH tenants have a social worker you can call if issues arise.
- Stability: Veterans in this program receive ongoing support for health and employment, reducing the risk of lease violations.
Income Limits
