Section 8
What You Need to Get Started
If you’re a Section 8 tenant looking for a rental property, you’ll need your RFTA (Request for Tenancy Approval Form) — sometimes called an R.F.T.
👉 If you don’t have your RFTA, please contact your case worker or housing agency to request one.
How Our Tenant Placement Service Helps You
✅ Transportation for Showings – Don’t drive? We’ll pick you up. Have a car? We’ll meet you at the property.
✅ RFTA Submission & Tracking – We submit your RFTA to Housing and follow the process from start to finish.
✅ Owner Communication – We address property improvements or special needs with landlords on your behalf.
✅ Inspection Support – We assist with the entire Section 8 inspection process.
✅ No Application Fees – Section 8 tenants never pay an application fee with us.
Security Deposits Made Easy
Deposits range from $0 to one month’s rent
Some landlords don’t require a deposit at all
Others may allow payment plans (half at signing, the rest in installments)
