District of Columbia Housing Authority

The remaining four percent of revenue is from a variety of sources, including laundry rooms, service fees, grants, and philanthropic support.

More than 60 percent of operating revenue was allocated to providing housing assistance vouchers to tenants while the remaining 40 percent was used for maintenance, protective services, utilities, tenant services and programs, and administrative operations[4] In 2013, the Housing Authority announced that it would put its headquarters building in the rapidly gentrifying NoMa neighborhood up for redevelopment.

An investigation by The Washington Post in 2023 found that DCHA overpaid rents to landlords by millions of dollars.

Regulations require the Housing Authority to make sure that rents it pays for are market rate, but the investigation found that it failed to do so.

Northwest Northeast Southwest Southeast DCHA has responsibility and financial interest in 23 mixed-income properties, but does not own them directly.
