How To Apply

Individuals who are interested in applying for rental assistance though the Mod Rehab Program should complete a  New Hampshire Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) Rental Assistance Application.

Eligible families are placed on NHHFA’s HCV and Mod Rehab sub-list. When vacancies occur in Mod Rehab projects, NHHFA refers families for participation from its sub-list to the owners. Owners select families for occupancy according to their tenant selection process.

NHHFA will conduct their screening for eligibility.  After approval the family will pay 30% of their adjusted income towards rent.  The subsidy is directly linked to the unit, if the family moves, is evicted, or becomes ineligible for the program the subsidy is nontransferable.
