2025 FMR And Section 8 Rents For Levy County FL

Section 8 is a federal program that guarantees monthly rent payments to landlords. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) publishes Fair Market Rents, which are 40th percentile averages of local rents, to determine their standard payment amount.

Frequently Asked Section 8 Investing Questions

Fair Market Rent (FMR): HUD sets FMR by bedroom size for each area.

Payment Standard: The local PHA sets this between 90–110% of the FMR. It's the max PHA assistance.

Gross Rent: Contract rent (charged by landlord) + utility allowance (estimated tenant utility costs). Must fit payment standard limits.

Housing Assistance Payment (HAP):

The PHA pays the lower of:

  • Payment standard - Tenant's Total Tenant Payment (TTP).
  • Gross rent - TTP.

Example:

  • Payment standard: $1,500
  • Contract rent: $1,400
  • Utility allowance: $100
  • Tenant's TTP: $400
  • Gross rent: $1,500 ($1,400 + $100).
  • HAP: $1,100 (lower of $1,500 - $400 or $1,500 - $400).

Landlord receives $1,100 (PHA) + $400 (tenant) = $1,500 total.
