What are the rent limits for Section 8?

The rent limits for Section 8 housing assistance programs vary depending on factors such as location, unit size, and the tenant's income. Generally, the rent must be considered reasonable compared to similar units in the area, and it must not exceed the Fair Market Rent (FMR) set by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Landlords participating in the Section 8 program must adhere to these rent limits to ensure affordability for low-income tenants while also meeting the program requirements.
