All their waiting lists are closed and they can't say when any will open. They announce openings on social media. I dont go on social media so that doesn't do it for me. Missing old Austin

If you have low income, you will have qualified to get public house. They help you program like job, free program for kids too. But public house is strict policy. Must clean background check clean depending they will offer you to accept to get public house. Its long waiting list if you apply this application. If you are disabled or elder, you will be top waiting list to get ready process. I suggest you to go headquarter to get information about it.

Can any disabled person on the voucher program sign up to to rent to own or some kind of property to own I'm 60 yrs old and tired of moving since I lost my home

Do you have to live here before being given assistance?

Donna Vasquez | Nov 1, 2019
Andrea Smith | Nov 1, 2019

No

On an estimate sheet. It reads: "Maximum Rent $9.99" "Tenant rent $.09" Does that mean that the tenant may pay up to $.09 in excess of $9.99, for an actual rent total of $10.98? Or that the maximum rent is $9.99, of which the tenant must pay $.09?

Leopoldo Zapiain | Nov 1, 2018
Leander Corbett | Nov 1, 2018

That estimated rent amount does not reflect our current rent payment standards; therefore, there is an error on the document you have. Please contact the point of contact that produced the rent estimate.

All of HACA waiting lists are closed. They had some openings in July so thats past and they dont know when anything will be available. They recommend trying Housing Authority of Travis County, Caritas, Austin Tenants Council, Front Steps, Salvation Army and City of Austin-rental assistance. Good Luck!

Audrie Siegel | Oct 31, 2021
Mindy Greenwood | Feb 3, 2022

They only periodically open up the housing choice voucher program and take applicants. If you're chosen you'll be put on the waiting list. Your best bet is to apply for public housing. Go to the website all the information is there.
