NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — The Metropolitan Development and Housing Agency has begun accepting applications for certain Project-Based Voucher properties on a first-come, first-served basis.
You can register online here until 3 p.m. March 11. Depending on how many applications, they receive, some waiting lists could remain open past that date.
The program provides low-and moderate-income households with monthly rental assistance. However, this assistance is tied to particular units rather than to the family. According to MDHA, eligible families only receive assistance while living in the Project-Based Voucher unit.
Our waiting list for certain Project-Based Voucher (PBV) locations is now open. Online only applications are being accepted on a 1st-come, 1st-served basis until 3pm 3/11/2019. Click here for a direct link to the application: https://t.co/3a5hiWZo1U #Nashville #affordablehousing
