2024-002 – Special Tests & Provisions: Rent Reasonableness RHA started using Affordable Housing to provide Rent Reasonableness reports. In addition, once the HCV program started to be managed by NHA, they use Rent O Meter to provide Rent Reasonableness Reports and NHA staff will enter those numbers into PHA web to maintain as a part of the annual renewal process or when a rent increase is requested by the landlord. In addition, a checklist was developed to make sure that all items are collected as necessary and entered into the PHA web system (housing management system). The Section 8 Program was a mid-year switch; therefore, the repeat findings will take time to clear. NHA is still working on getting all lease renewal done promptly
