Housing Referral Guidance for Texas Professionals
Help your client start their own housing search in any of our five Texas metros with our housing intake form.
Start with the housing intake form
Your client can fill out our housing intake form with their own details and give their own permission to be contacted. If you’re helping, go over the answers together and let them read the consent statement before sending.
Have a question of your own? Contact our team and mention that you’re the referring professional.
What happens next
We aim to send your client a community list within 24 to 48 weekday hours after they reach out. We walk them through program rules and possible next steps. Whether we find a match depends on their household, each property’s criteria and what’s available. The property or housing authority makes the final call on eligibility and approval.
Your client’s privacy
We only discuss your client’s search with another person if your client gives permission. See our Privacy Policy.
What to have ready
- Preferred metro and areas
- Household size
- Monthly household income before taxes
- Voucher status
- Move date and housing needs
- Questions about application requirements
Use this list to get ready before you talk with us. The intake form doesn’t ask for household size or voucher status, so share those when we follow up by text. You can print this page from your browser. It isn’t a downloadable PDF, and it isn’t an application to a housing program.
Where to find the right income limits
Official limits change with the program, the area, household size and the year they take effect. Check HUD income limits, HUD multifamily tax subsidy income limits, and TDHCA income and rent limits. Ask the property which table applies.
Our income limit comparison shows published MTSP limits. It doesn’t decide eligibility.
