HOUSING CHOICE VOUCHER PROGRAM

call (727) 461-5777, Ext. 201.

The Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) program, also known as Section 8, was created by Congress in 1974.  This housing program is income-based and is designed to provide rental assistance through housing vouchers to eligible, very low income families, disabled, and elderly individuals.

Administered locally by the Clearwater Housing Authority (CHA), the vouchers allow program participants to lease the apartment or home of their choice within the city limits of Clearwater. Program participants pay only a portion of the rent, and CHA pays the balance of the rent directly to the property’s owner.

Important information
Waiting Lists
Most low income apartments have waiting lists. Some of these lists can take years until you can be called for openings. The key is to try to get on as many waiting lists as possible.

Call The Apartments Directly
We provide phone numbers and websites. Call the apartments directly if they have openings or open waiting lists.

Apartment Rates
We provide current apartment rates on many listing pages. Most HUD listings do not have published rates. They are based on 30% of the renters adjustable gross income. You will need to contact the apartments to determine if you qualify for income based rent.
