How much can a person on disability make if they own their own house?

The amount a person on disability can earn while owning a house varies depending on the specific disability program they are enrolled in. For example, Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) has no limits on earnings, but Supplemental Security Income (SSI) has strict income limits, typically around $1,600 per month for individuals in 2023. However, the income from owning a house, such as rent from tenants, may affect eligibility for SSI. It's essential to consult with a benefits specialist for personalized advice based on individual circumstances.
