Multifamily Housing Program
HUD Assisted Multifamily Housing units are privately owned apartment complexes or scattered site properties. Rents are subsidized through the project based section 8 program. The subsidy for project based section 8 is assigned to the unit. An individual or family cannot take the rental subsidy with them if they move. Once a household moves from the unit, the project based section 8 assistance is discontinued for that family. The Denver Housing Authority owns or manages over 600 properties of Multifamily housing. The eligibility requirements and application procedure for these units are different than other programs. The properties are located throughout the City and County of Denver and include dispersed housing (scattered family houses or complexes) and high-rise buildings designated for elderly persons and persons with disabilities.
