Landlords Wanted!

The Mobile Housing Board

REQUESTS YOUR PARTICIPATION IN ITS

Housing Choice Voucher Program

 

The Mobile Housing Board’s Housing Choice Voucher Program provides rental assistance to low-moderate income families. A program participant selects a unit (single-family home, apartment, mobile home, etc.) from a landlord to rent in the private market.

HCV Program Advantages

  • MHB HCV conducts a basic background check for participant program eligibility. Landlords are responsible for creating their own selection criteria.
  • MHB HCV conducts an initial property inspection once all documents are completed by landlord and participant.
  • MHB HCV portion of rent is sent directly to landlord via direct deposit.
  • Program participants have a safety net if they experience a loss of income.

Please contact our office at 251.434.2364 or
EMAIL US for further assistance.

Landlords may list their available units for rent by visiting gosection8.com
and ALHousingSearch.org or by bringing a flyer to our
office to place in a binder located in our lobby.

Smoke Free Housing Policy
24 CFR Parts 965 and 966
(Lease Addendum)

The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has implemented a Rule that requires each Public Housing Authority administering public housing to implement a smoke-free policy. Specifically the Rule requires each Public Housing Authority to implement a policy prohibiting lit tobacco products and all smoking in any interior common areas, including but not limited to community rooms, community bathrooms, lobbies, reception areas, hallways, laundry rooms, electrical rooms and closets, storage units or rooms, stairways, offices, elevators and within all living units in public housing, and Public Housing Authority administration office buildings and vehicles (in brief, a smoke-free policy for all public housing indoor areas). The Mobile Housing Board is also prohibiting electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) and is including it in this policy’s definition of Smoking. This policy extends to all outdoor areas up to twenty-five (25) feet from housing (doors/entrances, windows and porches) and administrative office buildings and maintenance facilities.
