What you get as a network partner
SOTA isn't Section 8. There's no ongoing subsidy, no annual inspections after placement, and no bureaucratic back-and-forth. Just guaranteed rent, pre-screened tenants, and a team that handles everything.
Guaranteed rent, paid upfront
NYC HRA pays your full first year of rent directly to you. No chasing payments, no gaps.
Pre-screened tenants only
Every tenant is verified by GBHNJ before we make a match. Income, stability, and eligibility confirmed.
We handle the paperwork
Inspection coordination, HRA forms, packet submission — GBHNJ manages it all so you don't have to.
Direct access to us
Not a portal or a call center. You get a direct line and same-day responses on every active placement.
Common questions: Answers before you ask!
What if the tenant doesn't pay after year one?
You retain all standard NJ landlord rights — security deposit, lease terms, and standard court protections. GBHNJ also connects tenants to post-SOTA resources to maximize retention.
Is this the same as Section 8?
No. SOTA is a one-time payment — not an ongoing subsidy. There are no annual HQS inspections after placement, no monthly voucher calculations, and no PHA involvement after the lease is signed.
How long does the process take?
Most placements happen within 2–3 weeks from the time a tenant is matched to your unit. GBHNJ coordinates the inspection and paperwork to move as fast as possible.
Do I have to list all my units?
No. You control which units you submit and when. You can add or remove units at any time, and you always have the right to approve or decline any specific tenant.
The SOTA program is one of the most underutilized opportunities in the New Jersey rental market. While other landlords are chasing tenants, dealing with vacancies, and absorbing the stress of unpredictable rental income, GBHNJ Preferred Landlord Network partners are collecting guaranteed rent paid directly by NYC HRA — on time, in full, for an entire year. Every tenant we place is pre-screened, every inspection is handled, and every step of the paperwork is managed by our team so you never have to figure it out alone. Whether you have one unit or ten, the GBHNJ Preferred Landlord Network was built to make your property work harder with less effort on your end. This is not Section 8. There are no ongoing inspections, no monthly voucher calculations, and no bureaucracy after the lease is signed. Just stable, guaranteed income and a team that has your back from day one.
