- are owned by people who want to offer housing for people with disabilities
- have rental agreements directly with tenants
- at best, rental property should cover all operating expenses and produce a modest return or break even
As you make decisions regarding whether or not to dedicate your residential property to tenants with disabilities, please consider that the homeowner is responsible for "marketing" the availability of the openings in the residence and securing residents. As general practice, CPSH offers general marketing tools through its newsletter and social media but cannot facilitate targeted marketing nor play a role in securing residents for individual properties.
At the request of property owner, photos and property information (sent to admin@txcpsh.org) will be provided as follows:
CPSH does not guarantee that we will find residents for your home.
Periodically, property owners in Collin, Dallas, Denton, Ellis, Kaufman, Rockwall, and Tarrant Counties may apply for Project-Based Vouchers (PBV)s and receive subsidized rent if two or more adults with diagnosed disabilities live in these homes. Single family homes, condominiums, duplexes, triplexes, and multi-family properties qualify as Neighborhood Housing provided that there is a minimum of two bedrooms. Rent is about 30% of income.
This is a competitive bidding process where interested current or future homeowners submit an application. The Dallas Housing Authority evaluates the bids and awards Project-Based Vouchers. The number of PBVs awarded depends on the interest of the community.
