HACC not paying on time?

[Donnie N.]

One of my properties has not been receiving its sec8 payments for the last few months. Has anyone experience something similar? The property is in Richton Park. My property manager has tried to call them the get an answer but haven't had much luck getting hold of someone or someone with a clear answer. Any suggestions on what to do?

Hi @Donnie N. nice to meet you here on BP. I am sorry you are going through this. Section 8 delays can be incredibly stressful, especially when no one picks up the phone or gives a straight answer. Visiting the housing authority in person could be the only way to cut through the red tape. Bring all your documents and ask to speak directly with a supervisor or the assigned caseworker. If that still goes nowhere, consider contacting a local official or housing advocate, sometimes pressure from the outside helps. Keep everything documented. You're not the only one dealing with this, but it shouldn't be this hard.
