Fair market rent and payment standard

What the voucher can pay, by size

Each year HUD publishes a fair market rent (FMR) for each home size in Grady County. Your housing agency uses it to set its payment standard: the most the voucher can pay toward rent and utilities.

  • The fair market rent covers rent plus basic utilities, except the phone. HUD generally sets it at the 40th percentile: 4 in 10 standard-quality homes rented recently cost less. 24 CFR §888.113
  • Each agency sets a payment standard for each size. Without asking HUD, it can go from 90% to 110% of the fair market rent. 24 CFR §982.503(b), (c)
  • Above 110% is an exception payment standard. Up to 120%, the agency only has to notify HUD that it meets certain criteria. 24 CFR §982.503(d)

How it is figured

What the voucher pays and what you pay

The housing agency pays the owner directly. This is how it is figured, under HUD’s rules:

  1. The payment standard is the most the voucher pays. The agency pays the lower of the payment standard minus your share, or the rent with utilities minus your share. 24 CFR §982.505(a), (b)

  2. Your share (the total tenant payment) is the highest of 30% of your adjusted monthly income, 10% of your monthly income, the part of public assistance set aside for housing, or the minimum rent. 24 CFR §5.628(a)

  3. If the rent is below the payment standard, the family generally pays 30% of its adjusted monthly income. If it is above, the family pays more. 24 CFR §982.1(a)(3)

  4. When you move in, if the rent is above the payment standard, your share cannot go over 40% of your adjusted monthly income. 24 CFR §982.305(a)(5), §982.508

An example with HUD’s figures in Grady County

A family of 4 earning HUD’s extremely low income limit in Grady County has $33,000 a year, about $2,750 a month. 30% of that income is $825. Since adjusted income is the same or lower, the family’s share would generally not be more than that. If the agency sets the payment standard equal to the fair market rent ($1,011) and the 2-bedroom home rents for that, the voucher would pay about $186 or more.

Rent, equal to the fair market rent
$1,011

$825
Voucher payment, at least
$186

This is only an example. Your agency figures your adjusted income, the home size you get and its own payment standard. Sources: HUD fair market rent (Fiscal year 2027) and HUD income limits (Fiscal year 2026).
