Owner Information

Private property owners are a vital partner in the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program. Mini-workshops for new owners are held every other month. These workshops cover basic program information and are designed for small group interaction. If you are interested in attending one of these, please call 651-298-5079. Click here for the 2008 Workshop Schedule. There is also a landlord information packet that contains basic information about how the program operates and an owner handbook that contains more detailed information including samples of required forms such as the lease addendum and housing assistance payments contract.

Section 8 conducts an annual property owner/manager workshop that covers ongoing and new tenant and program information as well as serving as a forum to exchange ideas with owners. This workshop is usually held in the fall. Watch for more information on this workshop included with your checks.

Another way we communicate information to property owners is through a newsletter that is generally published quarterly and mailed with your checks.

It is important that we have current information so that the monthly assistance payments are mailed to the correct address. Please submit all address changes in writing including the old information, new information and the addresses of the properties you own that receive assistance. You can:

• Mail, to St. Paul PHA, W. Andrew Boss Building, 555 N. Wabasha Suite 300, St. Paul, MN 55102, Attn: Kara; or
• Fax to 651-292-6649, Attn: Kara; or
• Email to kara.moen@stpha.org

If you have bought or sold a property that receives Section 8 assistance please call 651-298-5105 or email kara.moen@stpha.org.

Thanks for partnering with us to provide decent, safe and affordable housing to low income families.
