SSVF Programs

Most of what your team has read or been told about HOTMA was written for public housing authorities administering the Housing Choice Voucher program and public housing. A good deal of it does not apply to a CoC or ESG-assisted household. Acting as though it does can cost a household its assistance.

In its first year, RentSelect brought more than 90 landlords and 29,000 units onto one shared platform serving 25+ partner agencies — so when new subsidies arrived, the landlord network was already there.

HUD CoC and ESG programs are eight weeks from a compliance date, preparing against a standard written for the Housing Choice Voucher program. That is a governance problem before it is an inspection problem.

Under HQS, whether a unit passed often depended on who inspected it. Under NSPIRE the standard decides — and it decides differently than the HQS checklist did, with more spaces and aspects to check.

Starting from zero in August 2024, NMCEH built a vetted landlord network serving 15 agencies and more than 100 case managers — and cut average housing search time nearly in half.

Unlocked covers what changes when housing assistance programs are built on a consistent operational standard — not what communities intend, but what the work actually looks like once the structure is in place.

The CNY CHANCE program, powered by Padmission Connect, surpassed its first-year housing placement goal in just nine months through structured system-level coordination.

A structural guide to building scalable housing access — how CoCs can consolidate fragmented outreach into unified landlord engagement infrastructure.

Reserved units are often the most actionable housing options available to case managers — and one of the easiest places for coordination to break down. Connect now treats reservations as shared, first-class inventory.

Building trust, system capacity, and faster rehousing through shared infrastructure.

How RentConnect uses Padmission Connect to coordinate landlord relationships, unit access, and housing search across 30 partner agencies.

In communities across the country, Padmission Connect is helping housing programs put choice back into the hands of the people they serve.

Padmission Connect is the software local agencies use to enable owners and operators to offer their units to rental assistance program tenants — here's how those partnerships work.

In most communities, landlord engagement starts and ends with whoever picked up the phone last. Partnership Home recognized this as a system design problem — and built a centralized model where property relationships became system assets instead of individual ones.

HUD's Special NOFO calls for centralized, system-level landlord engagement. Here's how Padmission helps CoCs build it.

Spatial visibility is a core requirement of effective coordinated housing search. Map Search puts it in the workflow, not in a separate tool.

How HOM, Inc. surveyed landlords on signing bonuses, risk mitigation, screening flexibility, and unit reservations — and what the results mean for ESG-CV Rapid Rehousing.

As communities scale Permanent Supportive Housing and Rapid Rehousing, there's a clear opportunity to align landlord engagement and housing search at the system level.
