"SomerVIP” launches March 4 with community event
Program offers incentives, technical support for landlords and realtors who lease to residents holding vouchers.
The Somerville Office of Housing Stability (OHS) and the Somerville Homeless Coalition are launching SomerVIP, a Section 8 Voucher Incentive Program, and invite community members to a kickoff event on Wednesday, March 4, to learn more, including how landlords and realtors can receive incentives and technical support through the program.
While all are welcome to come learn about this exciting new program, the kick-off event will primarily be focused on information for landlords who rent units in Somerville, and realtors serving the Somerville area.
SomerVIP offers one-time incentive payments, money for necessary repairs, and technical support to landlords and realtors who lease Somerville properties for the first time to Somerville residents holding vouchers and other mobile tenant-based programs. The program is being administered by the Somerville Homeless Coalition, which is currently accepting initial applications from Somerville residents holding mobile vouchers.
The kickoff event and workshop is planned for Wednesday, March 4, from 6
