What Impact Will Increased Fair Market Rents and
Higher Payment Standards Have on Your Housing Choice Voucher Program?
A new Fair Market Rent (FMR) policy has been targeted to areas
where higher FMRs are necessary to help families under the Section 8
Voucher Program find and lease decent and affordable housing. To ensure
the effective operation of this program, housing agencies will be allowed
to set their payment standard based on the 50th percentile rent rather
than the published 40th percentile FMR where necessary. What impact
will this have on your housing choice voucher program? Sign up for this
AudioShort and find out.
