Scattered Sites Homeownership Forms
Form: Scattered Sites Homeownership Program Intake Form
Summary: The Scattered Sites Homeownership Intake Form is the first step for residents of the Detroit Housing Commission’s (DHC) single-family rental portfolio to assess their eligibility for three new housing opportunities. This process is designed to identify individual housing goals, evaluate financial readiness, and connect residents with supportive services such as credit counseling, homebuyer education, and down payment assistance. No individual or group of applicants will receive preferential treatment; all applications will be evaluated in accordance with fair housing laws and DHC’s uniform selection criteria.
Form: Scattered Sites Resident Housing Option Survey
Summary: The Scattered Sites Resident Housing Option Survey helps the Detroit Housing Commission (DHC) ensure compliance with federal and local housing policies and identify supportive services residents may need—such as relocation assistance, homeownership counseling, or accessibility modifications.
This survey is a critical step in ensuring a smooth transition for residents to their preferred housing option. By completing it, residents help DHC design a disposition strategy that is responsive, transparent, and rooted in resident choice.
Residents are invited to share their housing preferences among three options:
- Purchase a scattered site home if eligible,
- Transfer to another DHC-owned or managed property, or
- Receive a Section 8 Tenant Protection Voucher (TPV) for maximum flexibility.
Survey responses are used strictly for planning and engagement purposes and do not represent a binding commitment by either DHC or the respondent.
