AffordableLeaseLA

Have a housing voucher? We help you find a home in Los Angeles.

AffordableLeaseLA connects renters who hold a voucher with Los Angeles landlords and property managers who rent to voucher holders.

We work with Section 8 (Housing Choice Voucher), VASH and other housing programs.

How it works for renters

Four steps, starting with one email.

  1. Email us what you need

    Tell us your voucher type, your bedroom size, the areas you want and when you need to move.

  2. We look for units that fit

    We check the units our landlords have open against your voucher and what you asked for.

  3. We connect you with the landlord

    You see the unit and apply directly with the landlord or property manager.

  4. The housing authority signs off

    For voucher rentals, the housing authority reviews the paperwork and inspects the unit before you move in.

What to put in your email

The more of this you include, the faster we can look for a match.

  • Your name and a phone number
  • Your voucher or program: Section 8, VASH, another program, or none yet
  • The bedroom size on your voucher
  • The neighborhoods or areas you want
  • When you need to move, and your voucher’s expiration date if it has one

Have a unit to rent? We refer renters who are ready to move.

We refer renters who hold a voucher or are working with a housing program. With a voucher, the housing authority pays its share of the rent directly to you each month. Some programs also pay incentives to owners who rent to voucher holders. Ask us what may apply to your unit.

Send us the basics and we’ll reply with how placement works and our terms.

  • Property address
  • Bedrooms and bathrooms
  • Asking rent
  • Date available
  • Your name and a phone number

Good to know

We are a private referral service

AffordableLeaseLA is not a government agency and is not part of HACLA, LACDA or HUD. We can’t issue vouchers or change your place on a waiting list.

Your voucher is protected

Under California law, a landlord can’t refuse to rent to you only because you pay with a housing voucher.

Equal housing opportunity

We work with every renter and owner without regard to race, color, religion, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, national origin, disability, family status, source of income or any other status protected by law.
