Transfers

Mandatory transfer occurs when DHA requires a resident to move to another unit under specific circumstances, including:

1. Emergency Maintenance: Life-threatening maintenance issues in your unit, building, or site.
   
   
2. Demolition, Disposition, Revitalization, or Rehabilitation: Major rehabilitation or demolition of your unit or property requiring the unit to be vacant.
   
   
3. Transfer from an Accessible Unit: If your family doesn't need the accessible features of your unit, and another family does.

Occupancy Standards:

Mandatory transfers may also occur when your family size changes, making your current unit too large or too small. DHA management initiates mandatory transfers by sending a Notice of Proposed Action to the resident.

DHA will pay reasonable costs related to mandatory transfers.

Voluntary transfer occurs when the transfer is initiated by the resident. The following is a list of voluntary transfers:

• Reasonable Accommodation
• Emergency Public Safety
• Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) Transfers
