Frequently asked
Is Proprietio an affordable-housing compliance system?▾
No. Voucher Desk is for landlords renting to Housing Choice Voucher tenants. It is not a LIHTC or HUD compliance system of record: no 50059 certifications, no TRACS submissions. If you run project-based HUD or tax-credit programs, look at a compliance system such as ExactEstate.
Why doesn’t this page compare prices?▾
ExactEstate publishes its per-unit pricing on exactestate.com, and it can change. We only restate what ExactEstate publishes about itself, with the source named. Our own Section 8 pricing is on our Section 8 page.
Can I use Proprietio if only some of my units have vouchers?▾
Yes. Voucher Desk is an add-on to any Proprietio property-management plan, and only units with a HAP contract in force count as voucher units.
