Section 8 laws and procedures require the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to obtain and review Rent Comparability Studies (RCS) when renewing most Section 8 contracts. The market rents resulting from these studies determine the rents owners can receive under the program and greatly influence whether an owner will renew and continue providing affordable housing or opt-out of the Section 8 contract and convert to market rent housing. The market rents set in these studies also drive HUD’s outlays for Section 8 project-based subsidy.
