SECTION 8


FAQS

  • Does Dominion Management accept Section 8 vouchers?

    Yes, Dominion Management is proud to participate in the Housing Choice Voucher Program. We accept Section 8 vouchers on all our rental properties.

  • What is the Section 8 program?

    Section 8, or the Housing Choice Voucher Program, helps low-income families afford housing using federal funds.

  • How do I get a Section 8 voucher?

    There is a waiting list to get a Section 8 voucher. A person wishing to get a voucher must apply through the local PHA’s Housing Choice Voucher Program. The program will evaluate the person’s financial stance and will offer a voucher to qualified low-income individuals. The amount of housing assistance received from the Section 8 subsidized program depends on the individual’s income. 

  • Where can I go to find a house that is approved by Section 8?

    The Housing Choice Voucher Program has a website where Baltimore City landlords can post their available properties. Dominion Management advertises all our rental properties on this website. It is important to note that the properties posted on the Section 8 website are not already approved by the Housing Choice Voucher Program. Once a landlord accepts a Section 8 voucher holder’s application, the unit must pass a Section 8 inspection to get approval to lease the property to a Section 8 tenant.

  • Does Dominion Management have a lot of experience with the Section 8 program?

    Yes, Dominion Management has been working with the Housing Choice Voucher Program for more than six years. We are very familiar with the steps that need to be taken from application submission to lease signing to our Section 8 tenant moving in. Our Section 8 applicants will not have to worry about anything after the application is approved. Dominion Management will work with the Housing Choice Voucher Program to ensure that everything runs smoothly.

  • If I just got a Section 8 voucher, how do I get started on finding a new home?

    Section 8 voucher holders should check Dominion Management’s rental site for properties. You may also find Dominion Management on the Section 8 website. We have properties that are available now as well as properties that are still being renovated. If you are interested in a house that is still being renovated, but must move soon, we still urge you to apply. We may be able to speed up the renovation so that you can move in quickly. If you’d like to apply for one of our properties online, please fill out the online application.

  • What if I have a Section 8 voucher but want to move?

    If you currently are unhappy with your location or landlord, you can request a move voucher through the Housing Choice Voucher Program. Once your Section 8 move voucher is granted, you will have up to 90 days to find another Section 8 approved rental property.

  • Does Dominion Management accept Section 8 move vouchers?

    Yes, Dominion Management accepts Section 8 move vouchers. We have helped dozens, if not hundreds, of Section 8 voucher holders move from their current residence to a Dominion home.

  • What is the advantage of a Section 8 voucher holder moving to a Dominion Management home?

    Dominion Management’s rental properties are newly renovated by our sister company, Dominion Properties. Dominion Properties has renovated over 1000 homes in Baltimore City and has been in business for almost 20 years. Dominion is known for our high-end renovations that include fine finishes and great amenities. We also have a full-time maintenance staff to assist our tenants. Here are the reasons why so many Section 8 voucher holders and residents choose Dominion. Because of these wonderful perks, Section 8 tenants often choose Dominion Management as their landlord and stay with our company for many years.
