Can someone with a felony record rent in Alexandria?

Screening practices and applicable requirements can vary by property and location. Ask each housing provider about its current criteria and verify reported policy details directly. For questions about your rights, consider consulting a qualified local housing or legal resource. Approval is never guaranteed.

Alexandria Housing Authority (AHA) publishes local housing-program, application, and community information. This resource summarizes AHA-reported PBV/LIHTC communities and application links, with address conflicts and office addresses clearly excluded from apartment listings. Confirm current eligibility and availability directly with AHA or the property.

Local housing information for Alexandria

Local rental overview

AHA's official rentals page displays nine Project-Based Voucher/LIHTC community cards. The bedroom ranges and addresses are authority-reported page details, not claims of current vacancies. Only three locations have enough address corroboration for cautious, unverified apartment records; those records remain noindex. Conflicts, street-only entries, and the shared 2558 Loblolly office/mailing address are not imported as apartments. Source: https://www.alexhousing.org/rentals

Application tips

Review AHA's official PBV application portal (https://alexhousing.myhousing.com/) and confirm current application instructions directly with AHA. Its /housing and /sales pages report the tenant-based HCV/Section 8 waiting list closed; that is distinct from PBV applications. For assistance, AHA lists (318) 442-8843, but its directory says application updates are not provided by phone. Published eligibility criteria include criminal-activity, utilities, and rental-history screening and do not establish felony acceptance. Confirm current availability and screening directly with the property.

ELIGIBILITY AND SCREENING AHA says applicants are screened for criminal activity, utility history and prior rental history; it identifies disqualifying criminal activity that threatens residents and drug-related criminal activity. This describes screening criteria and is not a statement that felony convictions are accepted or rejected. No claim that felony convictions are accepted or rejected; AHA's published screening criteria do not establish a universal felony-acceptance outcome. CONTACT AHA directory hotline: (318) 442-8843.

PBV waiting-list visible email text and mailto target differ, so no email is relied on.
