The section 8 program is comprised of a voucher program, by which its holder would look for an apartment or other rental home, and the landlord, a private owner, would agree to accept the voucher for its part of the rent payment, and charge the renter the difference. The other program that often is referred to section 8, but it really isn't, is public housing. Like section 8, is administered by the local housing authority in the area, which is why it is often mistaken for section 8. People also call it section 8 because it too is covered under the section 8 program that voucher programs covered under.Many apartments in the rural area and some urban areas are financed by government sponsored guaranteed loans with low interest to the owner of the property.

Public housing units are apartments or houses that are owned by a public Housing Authority or similar agency. Like the voucher program, your rent is adjusted according to your income. Under the voucher program, the rental unit is owned by a private individual or company, a landlord. That landlord will accept your voucher as part of your rent, of which you must pay the difference. The voucher is a guarantee by the federal government that it, through the housing authority mentioned, will pay its portion of your rent on your behalf.A tax credit project is a privately owned apartment complex that was financed through federal guaranteed mortgage loans from the USDA. In exchange for these low interest loans, the property owner must furnish apartments for those who are on low income, either through some programs of the USDA, the section 8 voucher program, or any other program administered by the property owner. In addition to the low-interest loans, the owner will also be entitled to tax credits on the property.
