Rent paid through the program
NYCHA, HPD or HRA pays its share of the rent straight to you each month. The tenant pays the rest, if anything is left.

Tenants: see which voucher you have on our home page.
What you get when you list with HomeRun
Renting to a voucher holder means an inspection, an agency packet and a rent approval before the lease starts. We do that work with you.
Tenants we have checked
Before you meet anyone, we check that their voucher is active and that its bedroom size and rent limit fit your unit.
Help with inspections and paperwork
We go over what the inspector will check, help you fix small items ahead of time and fill out the agency's landlord packet.
Faster lease-up
Our applicants already hold a voucher and are looking now, so your apartment spends less time sitting empty.

Questions owners ask
How does the rent get paid?
The voucher program pays its share of the rent directly to you each month. The tenant pays their own share, if they have one, the usual way.
Does the apartment need an inspection?
Yes. Voucher programs inspect the unit before the lease starts. We tell you what they look for and help you get ready, so there are fewer surprises.
Do I still choose my tenant?
Yes. We send you applicants and you decide, using your normal screening. In New York City it is against the law to turn someone down because they pay with a voucher.
Which programs do you work with?
Section 8 (HCV), NYCHA Section 8, CityFHEPS, FHEPS, HASA, EHV, SOTA and HPD.
