Multifamily Program
Lake Metropolitan Housing Authority operates a Multifamily Rental Assistance Demonstration, Project-Based Rental Assistance (Multifamily) Program, for the benefit of low-income families. Under the Multifamily Program, a family pays 30% of their adjusted income in rent to Lake MHA. Lake MHA receives a subsidy from HUD to cover the rest of the rent.
The assistance provided from HUD is attached to 240 units owned and managed by Lake MHA. The units can only be rented to extremely low, very low, or low-income families who will pay 30% of their adjusted income toward rent.
If the family moves out, the unit must be leased to a new family in need of rental assistance. These units are split into three developments located in Painesville – Jackson Towers, Washington Square, and Woodlawn Homes.
