Property Management
Property Management Overview:
-
Section 8 Overview: The Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program, administered in Tampa by the Tampa Housing Authority (THA) and surrounding housing authorities, is a federally funded program designed to assist low-income individuals and families in accessing safe and affordable housing. This program provides eligible tenants with vouchers that can be used to subsidize their rent in privately owned properties.
-
Services We Offer: Our property management services encompass tenant screening, lease administration, rent collection, property maintenance, inspections, compliance with Section 8 program requirements, and competitive pricing.
-
Quality Tenant Selection: At eFamily Homes, we prioritize the selection of high-quality tenants for Section 8 properties. Our rigorous screening process includes background checks, credit checks, rental history verification, income assessments, and social media scrubbing to ensure that tenants meet the highest standards. We go as far as visiting the potential tenant in their current home and meeting the family face to face.
